The legal and financial house most ministries never set up
JD Swan, founder and teacher at Standing on the Rock, on Equity jurisprudence. Written for Pastors and church administrators.
Why this matters to you
Most ministries pour themselves into the spiritual house and leave the legal and financial house to whatever was filed when the church began. Few leaders know what structure they are actually standing in.
JD teaches the older, conscience-based view of law, where a trust is a relationship of faithfulness and stewardship before it is a form. That view fits the way churches already think about what God has entrusted to them.
This conversation helps church leaders ask better questions about protecting the ministry's assets and legacy for the next generation.
What JD can talk about
- What a trust actually is in the older, conscience-based view of law
- Protecting a ministry's assets and legacy
- Stewardship questions every church leader should ask
About JD Swan
JD was a systems engineer who lost his career to a mandate. He spent a year in the oldest branch of American law, Equity, and built a teaching ministry, Standing on the Rock, with his wife Margaret. His students are in every US state and seven countries, and their resolution letters are shown with personal details redacted.
Education only. No outcome promises. JD says so on air.
