It seems that way with many aspects of the financial world. You don’t need your savings account until an accident drains your bank account, you don’t need health insurance until your kid winds up in the hospital, and so on.

National Insurance Awareness Day falls on June 28 this year to remind people everywhere that insurance is vital to their companies and ministries. Ensuring you are secured by a company like Brotherhood Mutual that actively serves your church and caters to your needs is important for when life’s scenarios take us by surprise.

Churches are increasingly becoming targets for cyber criminals. The most common attack is by sending “phishing” emails where the perpetrator poses as someone familiar to the ministry staff (like a senior pastor, deacon, elder, or someone trustworthy) and requests some sort of response.
Anyone who turns on the news, flips through a magazine, or browses the web can see that American society and culture are experiencing rapid transitions.
