I'm in a rare year where I actually have a little bit of margin with my budget as we are ending the year and it caused me to really evaluate what I should spend my budget on and how to be the best steward of my ministry budget.

So I boiled it down to 4 areas, and I share with you those in the video over on the channel today. Don't have time to watch? Keep reading...

Here is how I spent the rest of my budget:

1. Knowledge
2. I purchased access to Worship Ministry Training and I'm loving it! Maybe you should too! Or maybe you should purchase some knowledge through my Next Level Livestreaming course and get $25 off by using the code "25off"
3. Tech Essentials
4. Things like XLRs, HDMI, Headphones, Rechargeable Batteries and more! I share some special deals in the video.
5. Subscriptions
6. When you use your 2024 budget to buy a full year of a 2025 subscription it's the gift that keeps on giving. My fav is Soundstripe
7. Volunteers

a. I bought "Central Creative" hoodies for all of our volunteers!

I know it's a crazy time of year, but I hope that you are able to pause for a moment and enjoy worshiping with your family and friends and to appreciate the churches that God has placed us in!

Let's keep doing great things for God's glory.
