STEVE & SHARON SMITH - ENDORSED BY:

---

Pastors Archie and Sheila Neal - Connection Church, O'Fallon, Missouri
“Steve Smith is a man with a passion for helping churches and the pastors who lead them. His unique gifting and years of experience have equipped him with the wisdom and ability needed to bring excellence to a side of the ministry that is often lacking in many churches. While administrative tasks such as creating a budget, developing policies and procedures for a growing staff, as well as the development and implementation of a strategic plan for moving the church forward can often seem to be both burdensome and daunting to many pastors, these are the areas that Steve excels in.

I’ve had the privilege of working with Steve in two very different settings: one as the pastor of an established, growing church where the administrative side of the ministry needed adjustments and changes on a regular basis in order to keep up with the rest of the ministry, and most recently as the pastor of a church plant where I was starting from square one and everything needed to be set in order. In both settings, Steve’s counsel and expertise were and continue to be an invaluable resource.

I highly recommend Steve to any church or pastor looking for assistance in bringing a new level of effectiveness and excellence to their ministry."

“Steve Smith has spoken to and helped thousands of leaders around the world, equipping them in fulfilling their vision, by giving them practical tools for everyday church operations.

He has always made himself available to us. He is indeed a Pastor’s Pastor. His knowledge in church operations and finances are a great asset in so many ways to our church. Steve is a man of integrity, strong character, and exudes passion in everything he does.”

Pastors Paul and Kim Owens - Lighthouse Church, Peoria, Arizona
“It is my pleasure to personally recommend Steve Smith as a consultant for your administrative, financial and budgeting needs. His keen sense of business and financial insight make him an undeniable resource for help in implementing church budgets, training and encouraging your church staff. He gives financial oversight through difficult situations.

Steve has walked us through our budget implementation process and helped our staff understand the freedom that comes from operating within a budget environment. His love and passion, along with his willingness to impart knowledge, allows us to strongly encourage you to contact him.”

Pastors Carey and Vannie Harrell - Church Alive International, Roanoke, Virginia
“Steve Smith is a friend to pastors; a friend to the local church; a refreshing resource. We asked Steve to help us create and institute a church budget and he went far beyond the call of duty in assisting us with staffing issues and our new building campaign.

The local Pastor has very few places to go for personal, in depth advice about running the administrative side of the ministry. We came up empty so many times after spending large sums of money to attend conferences and seminars on such matters. Steve pours his heart and passion into customizing the information for your particular situation. No conference has ever offered that.

Steve’s personable style and gift of communication make the information he gives come to life. You will actually get excited about excellence in church administration.”
