Highest Paid Pastors
It is easy to connect that the largest churches, often called mega-churches, come with mega-salaries. Just this year Dr. Robert Jeffress stated in a sermon where he went into a clothing store to buy a suit. The pastor was curious and so asked what the most expensive suit in the place was, knowing full well that he couldn’t afford it. The man brought back a suit that was tailor made for a pastor of a mega-church that cost $60,000! Sadly, this same pastor boasted that he could afford it…he drew a $200,000 salary per year…plus expenses. One pastor of a mega-church drew a salary of just over a quarter of a million dollars. Dr. Jeffress said that he about fell over and bought a suit that was reasonably priced at about $200. Pastors who make over a hundred-thousand dollars are the rare exception and they are confined to the mega-churches.
Actually that's a bit misleading:
The average pastor’s salary of $28,000 a year is close to that of a teachers’ average salary in the United States which is $42,000 a year. As I stated before, these are the two lowest paid professionals with degrees in the nation.
