Ok...

What do you think is an ideal salary for the type of work being advertised?

This position is not for everyone, It's for whom God has chosen to have it. He has sent that person needed for this appointed time. Thanks for the views and the replies.
God Bless!!!

Well, I guess it depends on how they define 'skilled' and 'versatile'.
When I think 'skilled' and 'versatile', I think of someone with no less than ten years of dedication to honing their skills, and can play everything from 'This Little Light Of Mine' to 'Everything Will Be Alright' by Tye Tribbett. Of course, ten years isn't a hard number, and there are exceptions...
...but, many musicians mistake skill with sensitivity and appreciation for the craft of music.
I'm 32, and not until I was in my mid-20s did I feel I didn't have to empty my bag of tricks in every song in order to enjoy playing.
That being said ... small ministry? Ack. I guess what they can pay, but quality musicians usually want what they're worth. No less than 100 a Sunday. I got that at a small church.

I understand exactly what you're saying. It is a small ministry, but that is what their budget is for now. I totally agree with you. This guy is a very skillful drummer, I think because he's in need of cash right now, he's willing to accept the position until. God will reward him for his humbleness and his commitment to the house of God.
