A growing church is a blessing, but can be a challenge too. When membership soars from a few hundred to a few thousand church operations take on an entirely new character. Accounting becomes far more complex as both donations and expenses multiply. Plus, administrators have to juggle that extra accounting on top of the day-to-day needs of an expanding ministry. Needless to say, growing pains are common.

We're always proud of the work we do and the relationships we build with each and every one of our customers, but when we get feedback six months or a year down the road and get to hear how transformative Intacct and our implementation team have been, it's very special. Gateway Church, an AcctTwo customer in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, recently contributed to a story in Church Executive Magazine about how the growing church needed a "streamlined, accessible, and accurate accounting engine," and how Intacct was the perfect fit. The Gateway finance and operations team all agree that "Intacct is, in the end, a ministry tool."

Since the inception of Excel, almost 30 years ago, Microsoft has been improving the computing power of the spreadsheet. As business intelligence requirements emerged, the need for unique calculations - graphing and macros (automating tasks in a spreadsheet) - became instrumental in the process of gathering and reporting data. For many years, analysts have lived and breathed in Excel. Excel provided users with the ability to produce results with automated computing power. For those buried in the data, this was a life saver.

In order to help us build and shape our church, we must track membership activity both in giving and participation. Creating a healthy community of believers is a primary goal for any church. As we grow the church, our analytics produce different results than those in the business world but our ability to evaluate the health of both our members and our finances is paramount to the success of the church.

I can say with all certainty that managing credit cards is one of the most challenging responsibilities for those of us that work in the back office of a church. There are several forms of credit cards to blame for this. You have corporate cards like AMEX and Visa/MC or SAM’s or Costco charge accounts. No matter which platform is being used to facilitate the ease of purchasing for the ministry leaders, it can and usually does, get out of control.

If your church is anything like mine, you are constantly trying to navigate the requirements of our nation’s employment laws. When researching the topic of “employee versus independent contractor,” what I find is consistently inconsistent. It’s easy to get lost in the lack of interpretation.

As the multi-site church trend continues to grow, leaders are faced with the challenge of sustainability. Excitement for expanding the reach of the church to impact lives rallies support not only through generous giving but also through an increase in volunteering. But launching a satellite church is the easy part.
