Most pastors were never taught how to handle money. They lead people well, then quietly carry stress about their own finances. In this first episode of The Pastoral Finance Podcast, Todd Hukill walks through five money mistakes he sees pastors make again and again, and a simple next step out of each one.

Todd is an ordained pastor and has spent nearly two decades as a financial advisor and as Finance Director for a statewide ministry network. This show exists to give pastors clear, trustworthy help with money. No pressure, no guilt.

In this episode:

1. Waiting too long to ask for help

2. Living paycheck to paycheck without knowing where the money goes

3. Trying to manage your money without a system

4. Thinking you are planning just because you have a budget

5. Trying to fix everything at once

The takeaway: you are not alone, and you are not stuck. Real progress is a series of small, consistent steps. Pick one and take it this week.
