Where confident decisions begin.

Ministry leaders need timely, accurate numbers to plan well, meet board and audit expectations, and steward what's been entrusted to them. When your books are current and clear, your time goes to growing the Kingdom instead of digging for information.

Chris Buckner, CPA

"Overflow Accounting takes its name from Luke 6:38: "A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over." We believe what God has poured into us should be poured back out into the ministries we serve, so they, in turn, can overflow into the people they reach."

Why Overflow

Founded by a CPA who grew up in the church and still serving at the local church today as an elder and Treasurer/CFO. Overflow Accounting works exclusively with churches, Christian schools, and ministries. With over a decade in church finance, we understand the nuances general firms often miss, like fund accounting, housing allowances, and contribution reporting. We deliver books that are compliant and clear, so leadership can steward the abundance God has placed in their care with confidence.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As the new Chairman of deacons at Journey Church in Waynesville we were looking at multiple referrals for a church accountant we came across Chris at Overflow. Chris took.sometime to gather our info setting us up on a discount Accounting service. We had not had a written ytd form in quute awhile. Chris came through right after the hurricane as we scrambled to put a church budget together  to.present to our church body for a vote. The ytd was amazing! All our financial team thought his reports were professional
We did our homework on Chris and I would highly recommend him.
