Pastors, church business administrators, worship leaders, children's ministers, and all other persons employed by the church are urged to take this brief survey. Survey questions are related to individual positions as well as church demographics including questions on attendance, region, and denomination. Survey participants will receive a $15 credit towards dozens of downloadable resources at ChurchLawAndTaxStore.com redeemable upon completion of the survey.
