You are venturing into an area where I have little knowledge. But I'll forge ahead anyway.
I see no problem with incorporating if it provides tax advantages for a ministry. We are to be good stewards of His money and if incorporating helps to keep the books more open and helps maximize the mount that goes into direct needs then I am all for it.
Is that what you were intending, Chris?

Exactly the thought that came to mind for me as well:
ACCOUNTABILITY
a church should not be someone's personal bank account. See Carl Hutcherson.

By incorporating an organization, lawsuits would have to be directed at the organization, not an individual, thus protecting one's personal assets.
