Faculty Q&A
Teaching business courses helps students understand how the job market and financial trends in the world impact church offerings and influence how people give.
I was able to assist a student in securing their first accounting position. Although accounting is often overlooked, it is essential—especially in a church setting—where members want reassurance that their finances are being managed with integrity, transparency, and care.
