<p>by Warren Bird: When church leaders ask questions like this…</p>
<ul>
<li>How much should we keep in <strong>cash reserves</strong>?</li>
<li>How much <strong>debt</strong> is safe?</li>
<li>What <strong>financial measures</strong> should our church’s leadership monitor each month?</li>
</ul>
<p>… They’re ultimately asking <strong><em>what makes a financially healthy church?</em></strong></p>
<p>I found clear, compelling answers from Michael Batts<strong>,</strong> who is president and managing partner of a CPA firm dedicated exclusively to serving nonprofit organizations and their affiliates – whose website is <a href="http://www.nonprofitcpa.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nonprofitCPA.com</a>. His latest book is titled <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Nonprofit-Financial-Oversight-Complete-Committees/dp/1974634205/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1516663296&amp;sr=1-1&amp;keywords=Nonprofit+Financial+Oversight%3A+The+Concise+and+Complete+Guide+for+Boards+and+Finance+Committees+BATTS&amp;pldnSite=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nonprofit Financial Oversight: The Concise and Complete Guide for Boards and Finance Committees</a>.</p>
<p>Here’s an 11-minute video interview I recently held with him. More than talking about the book, he offers a lot of practical guidance that applies to churches from really large to really small. Please give a listen:</p>
