The financial friend every pastor needs

Healthy Church CFO gives pastors and church boards a trusted financial partner: clear monthly reporting, sound counsel, and a steady hand for the decisions that shape your ministry.

Most churches outgrow the bookkeeper long before they can afford a CFO

That in-between season is where good churches can quietly get into financial trouble. The numbers come in late or inaccurate. Decisions get made on instinct, or based on a bank balance. The pastor is leading this month with last month's information, and no one on the team has the time or training to build something better.
That gap is the reason Healthy Church CFO exists. We step into the financial leadership seat so you can lead from clarity instead of guesswork, and so your team can stay focused on ministry.

Every month,
the same three reports.
No surprises

Healthy churches run on rhythms, not heroics. The heart of the Fractional CFO relationship is a reporting rhythm you and your board can count on, produced in Realm and delivered the same way every month

A pastor who became a CFO, and never stopped being a pastor

For 17 years, Kerry Jones served as Executive Pastor and CFO of a large church, sitting in the same seat your team sits in now. He is an ordained minister with an MBA in corporate finance who has spent 30 years as a church CFO. He can read your financial statements and tell you what they actually mean, in language that makes sense from the pulpit and the boardroom alike.

​

More than any title, he is a friend to pastors. Every relationship starts there, and the financial counsel is built on top of it.
