The Internal Revenue Service's Form 1023, which includes the 501c3 Church Schedule A, is what some churches choose to complete and file for recognition of tax exempt status. This is not something churches are required to do, as they are automatically tax exempt upon formation. However, if completing the form is important to you, regardless of how knowledgeable you are concerning tax laws and the legal and business tasks of starting a church, Form 1023 is no walk in the park.  However, with the assistance of the information provided in the amazing new church-starting guide entitled Building On Faith, you’ll save yourself a lot of time and confusion through the process of completing the form.

The first thing to take note of is that there is little room for answers either on the main form or on the Schedule for Churches.  Unfortunately, most of the questions posed to organizations desiring 501c3 church and tax exempt recognition require what could, in all practicality, be considered a short essay. In order to give complete answers to these questions, you should use attachments. Building On Faith, contains the simplest to understand and most authoritative treatment of this subject matter you can possibly find. It offers advise and direction that will guide you in properly drafting all your responses.

A detailed step-by-step, line-by-line explanation is offered in Building On Faith, clearly outlining the information you will need to complete a 501c3 church application. You’ll find explanations that help you determine whether or not to incorporate your church (which is not required, though many church leaders see value in so doing). In effect, this is everything you need on the Form 1023 to avoid paying for legal assistance and filing in a manner that requires a consultation with a lawyer or other secular service provider.

With the help of Building On Faith, you’ll find it amazingly simple to provide complete details regarding the activities of the church, and all other matters inquired about on the application. There are so many areas inquired into in the 501c3 church application that you must have a better understanding about before completing and submitting the form.

Building On Faith is the gold standard in use today by hundreds of churches throughout the United States. It was written by Abe Hernandez, Esq., a devoted Christian and church law expert.
