On the Concealment of the Senior Pastor's Compensation Package

Filed by Trustee Amos Beckett against Mount Bethel Global Methodist · Marietta, GA · 6/27/2026

The Thesis

The annual report omits the senior pastor's salary, housing allowance, book royalties, and love-offering totals. 1 Timothy 5:17-18 honors a worker's wage; 2 Corinthians 8:20-21 requires we take pains to do what is honorable before the Lord AND before man. Concealment is not honor.

Scripture: 1 Tim 5:17-18; 2 Cor 8:20-21
