We are building a community of church leaders across North America who can learn from each other to better serve their community and congregants. Growing across multiple campuses and adding new programs puts a strain on the limits of most accounting software. With Baker Tilly you gain the finance and accounting software capabilities to have a deeper insight into your financial health as a Ministry.
With Baker Tilly, finance teams get the accounting automation software and experienced guidance designed for churches and faith-based organizations of all denominations. You receive the financial controls and efficiency you need to help fulfill your mission and strengthen your stewardship.

Get the Metrics That Demonstrate Impact
Delivering the metrics that matter for churches
There are certain financial measures church leaders want to understand the short- and long-term financial health of a Ministry and its progress toward its mission. Often, however, these measurements can be labor-intensive to produce because the financial and non-financial source data lives in different systems, such as the church management system, the donor system and even Excel spreadsheets.
Church finance leaders must also be able to communicate to Church leaders and donors in a simple way:
- How well programs and projects are achieving their purpose
- Which programs and activities are delivering the expected impact, and which are not ⎯ and thus require additional analysis and modification
- How donor behavior at the individual and aggregate levels impact ministry financial health
With Baker Tilly Ministry Intelligence, churches achieve visibility into their financial health. Not only that, the metrics are real time, automatic, accurate and insightful. It is a cloud-based, fully automated dashboard application designed specifically for churches. It is built directly on the Sage Intacct enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. It completely automates the process of tracking financial transactions and their impact on your church’s financial future. You get the crucial reports and insightful dashboards regarding giving, funds, and operating expenses you need to enable data-driven decision making and communicate key financial information to your church’s senior leaders, committees and congregants.

“Now with Sage Intacct, we can generate a single report with a one-page recap of our financials, a second page for campus-level consolidations, and then additional pages for individual campus or ministry reports. Having this kind of flexible and robust reporting helps us be more productive, while making sure all our data ties together correctly.”
Glenn Wood, Pastor of Church Administration
Seacoast Church
“Baker Tilly's ability to integrate with other systems is proving transformative for our church's credit card and payroll processing.”

"I’m spending less time preparing the financials and more time analyzing them. By outsourcing our accounting to Baker Tilly, I’m able to be more of a CFO and spend less of my time being consumed with day-to-day operations of running an organization. Now when a new challenge or project comes up, I’m able to put all my energy into solving it instead of focusing on the minutia.” - Trent Linville, Director of Finance at The Bridge

“For us, dashboards need to be visual,” Wood explains. “For the most part, if I want to see a pastor’s eyes roll back in his head, I just have to hand him a financial report with tons of data.” [laughs] He ‘gets’ it — but that’s not what excites him.”
