The interviews conducted with the 33 Reformed Pastors in the Reformed Church in Hungary make it clear that that their relation to money bears an intrinsic ambivalence, which is part of pastoral identity. Living on the border between two worlds, the pastor carries the message of the Kingdom of God and represents a spiritual value system and lifestyle that is meant to be different from that of our world. Mostly, a shortage of money, social or clerical unfairness is mentioned in the interviews, however, amounts of money that are more than necessary can also create tension in a pastor’s life.
