Is this a proposal for poverty? Absolutely not.
This is not a proposal for poverty. Don't forget that as a pastor in the UMC you will have on top of the salary the following: a parsonage (often with the utilities covered), continuing education funds from your local church, travel expense funds from your local church, health insurance for your entire family (my church back home also did disability and life insurance), and a pension. This is no poverty.
Those who aren't in the UMC would need to determine how these kinds of considerations should play into a minimum salary amount.
