Create a church bookkeeping program that not only tracks expenses or income but also tracks assets and liabilities.
Yet, every church must handle finances. There are weekly tithes or offerings. There are also bills to pay, financial obligations to meet, and salaries to be made. It's difficult to keep track. Even if Excel isn't your thing and you don’t know what a debit is, accounting software programs for churches can help.

FT Walton Church Bookkeeping LLC makes it easy to get started. You don't have to be an accountant to use our general ledger.
In the case a church, a bookkeeper might be required to take on the roles of both an accountant as well as a treasurer. They are responsible to manage all financial aspects for the church. Their responsibilities include but not limited to:
81% of church revenue came from individual donations. 34% of congregations have endowments, which constituted on average 4% of their revenue. Only 2% of churches received revenue from government grants; 12% received finance from non-government grants.
Churches call the traditional balance sheet a statement of financial position. It uses the accounting equation “Assets = Liabilities + Equity” to show a snapshot of your organization's financial health. It also shows the current balance of each of your funds if you've been implementing fund accounting for your church.
