The question is often asked, how much do you charge (concerning speaking engagement, etc.)? When asked this question we have a tendency to ask, why do we have to charge when the gospel is free? Yet we know that God has ordained a method by which compensation is professional, courteous, and very biblical. That method is called Honorarium (not love offering). It simply says that your thank you and appreciation of the Heraldler will be reflected in financial expressions. Our present position is that if we have to tell you, then you can't afford us anyway. If we have to demand of you a price for preaching and teaching the word of God then we can't be effective with your ministry.
If there's ever a needed desire for us to come to your ministry to preach, teach, and/or do some training particularly in the area of ministry we would ask you to consider the following:
If you have further questions on these matters, please don't hesitate to communicate with us.
Thanks!
