Let’s be honest—budgeting for kids or youth ministry can feel like trying to feed a crowd with five loaves and two fish. In this episode, we break down how to think clearly and strategically about budgeting at the department level without losing vision, creativity, or momentum.

We talk priorities, planning ahead, making the most of limited resources, and how to advocate well for your ministry without sounding defensive or desperate. If you want to steward money wisely and build a ministry that actually works, this conversation will help you do both.
