“When there are unsaid expectations put on by the pastor or their spouse it is something to be wary of.”
“When the motivation is more than just friendship or fellowship, it can get ugly fast.”
“If you are selling your products more than you are selling Jesus then there is something wrong with that.”
“The policy should come alongside your leader or volunteer handbook that you share when you are asking them to serve in your church.”
“There is always going to be an opportunity for someone to be selling their services in your church.”
“You should have a policy in place so that if it does become a problem you can address it.”
