How much control should a pastor have over the church finances?

Every individual situation is unique, so there's no real right answer for that question. A lot of times the pastor of a church is involved in the finances because he knows what the church needs. Put a lot of prayer into it. No one person should be in total control of the finances though

Should a pastor control the church in every thing?
No. The pastor is called to shepherd and therefore must have a certain amount of authority but God is the head of the church. The pastor should be the highest human authority within the church but not so high that he is above accountability from the other elders in the church.

Can a pastor of a non for profit church ask a member of the church to please move out of town?
WHAT?! No, a pastor of ANY church cannot ask someone to move out of town and any good, Christian pastor would never do that! The only thing a pastor may do is if he feels that a member of a church has committed a bad sin and will not confess, the pastor can have the church vote on it and the person may be asked to leave the church, but NO PASTOR can kick someone out of town and if that is what's happening, than that pastor is not a good, Christian pastor and he should be reported to the head of the district for whatever denomination his church is.

It will depend upon the church. God doesn't care what anyone wears to church as long as it is decent.
How many years should a pastor have to have his own church?
In most mainstream denominations the congregation "owns" the church not the pastor. Some churches are created by one person who would "own" it, but in most cases the church is not owned by the pastor. I would be weary of a church where the pastor owns it. The when the denomination or congregation owns the church it provides checks and balances to avoid corruption and megalomania by a pastor or sole person running the church. If a person is a secondary worship leader and desires to be a senior pastor, then since most churches seeking a pastor have a "pulpit committee" that would help vet the candidates you would need to seek out churches that need a pastor and talk to the committee that is charges with finding the pastor. Each church has it's own set of requirements. My husband got out of seminary and got a church right away as a senior pastor and we have been at this one and only church for 22 years. Every congregation is unique and you will just have to contact each one like any other job you seek to have with resumes, recommendations etc.
