In the past, work as a leader of a faith community was usually considered a pathway to the middle class. As churches have changed, and more congregations are smaller, paying a full-time clergyperson becomes a challenge. In Signs of Rebound Amid Uneven Recovery: The Changing Congregational Landscape, a report from the Hartford Institute for Religion Research, it’s noted that smaller congregations still struggle. 40% of congregations in the United States have 50 or fewer people attending. Another 27% have 51 to 100. Many of these faith communities are unable to pay a full-time salary. It's estimated that about one-third of clergy hold some type of other employment. Two bivocational pastors, the Rev. Karisa Rickard from Opportunity Christian Church in Spokane Valley, Washington and Pastor Dan Koehler from Spirit Lake Presbyterian Church in Spirit Lake, Idaho, joined the Religion Desk to talk about their experiences as bivocational clergy. Dr. Darryl Stephens, editor of Bivocational and Beyond: Educating for Thriving Multivocational Ministry shared, too, on his research into bivocational ministry.
