Financial Intelligence for Church Leaders

Building Strong Foundations

Book 1 of the Healthy Church Leadership Series

Every pastor and church leader knows the tension: the vision is big, but the finances don’t always follow. When provision falls short, pressure mounts — and ministry can quickly feel more like survival than calling.

In Financial Intelligence for Church Leaders, experienced pastor and leadership coach John Finkelde offers a clear, godly, and practical framework for building a financially healthy church. Drawing on decades of real-world experience, John unpacks timeless principles and actionable strategies to help you lead with wisdom, clarity, and confidence in the area of church finances.

Discover how to:

Align your church’s vision with wise financial planning
Build a culture of generosity and trust
Avoid common financial pitfalls in ministry
Lead budget discussions with clarity and courage
Create strong financial systems that support sustainable growth

Financially intelligent churches are free to pursue bold vision, serve their communities with strength, and multiply their impact for the Kingdom.

This is Book 1 of the Healthy Church Leadership Series, a five-part resource designed to equip church leaders for long-term, sustainable, and Spirit-led ministry.
