Your Budget and Bank Balance Don’t Tell the Whole Story
Your budget may show that the year should work. Your current bank balance may appear adequate.
Neither tells you whether the church will have enough cash when payroll, insurance, ministry expenses, or other significant obligations come due.
A cash flow forecast helps church leaders look beyond the current balance and consider what may happen over the coming weeks and months. That financial visibility supports wiser, more proactive ministry decisions.
What You’ll Learn
By the end of this introductory webinar, you should:
Understand why budgets and bank balances do not tell the entire financial story.
Recognize common causes of church cash flow challenges.
Understand the purpose and basic structure of a cash flow forecast.
See how cash flow forecasting can support ministry and leadership decisions.
Be prepared to begin using a cash flow forecast in your church.
This is not an accounting lecture. It is a practical financial leadership conversation designed for church leaders.
What You’ll Receive
After attending the webinar, you’ll receive the Church Cash Flow Toolkit, which includes:
Church Cash Flow Forecast Template — An Excel template with church-specific revenue and expense categories.
Church Cash Flow Guide — A practical guide of approximately 12 pages to help you begin using the template.
The webinar introduces the concepts and tools. It does not promise to solve every cash flow challenge—or produce a completed forecast—in one hour.
You will leave understanding how a simple cash flow forecast can help your church anticipate financial challenges and make more informed ministry decisions.
Designed for Church Leaders
This webinar is appropriate for: Lead Pastors; Executive Pastors; Church Administrators; Treasurers; Board Members; Finance Committee Members; Accountants and Bookkeepers.

Cancellation and Refund Policy
A full refund is available when registration is canceled at least 24 hours before the webinar.
Because each session is limited to 10 participants and canceled seats may be offered to people on the waitlist, cancellations made within 24 hours of the webinar and participant no-shows are non-refundable.
