Recently I had a question about pay for staff and any standard for that pay.  Check out the resources at the site for the National Association of Church Business Administration, and even more uniquely MinistryPay.  Generally, state conventions and national conventions also would have resources to help assess standards.  But then, there is also the simple method of talking with trusted friends in ministry about what is happening in their church and region in regard to supporting those in the work.  

What resources have you found that are useful in working with your personnel team and compensation packages?
