Robert Charles “R.”C” Sproul is the founder and chairman of Ligonier Ministries, which was first established in 1970. Beginning as a study center for college and seminary students, Sproul slowly built the ministry into the nationally recognized program that it is today. The ministry now hosts many theological conferences all throughout the year, with renowned speakers coming from all over the world.
Unlike the other pastors on this list who chose to take his message further via television, Sproul turned to the internet and launched the online Christian radio station known as Reformation Network (RefNet) for reformed Christians in 2012.
Although not considered as one of the most famous pastors in the world, the 77-year-old is certainly one of the wealthiest, with an estimated net worth of $2 million.

Jack Van Impe
Nicknamed the “Walking Bible”, the Michigan native started his evangelical career on the Billy Graham Crusades. In 1954, he met and married Rexella Mae Shelton. Together, the two started Jack Van Impe Ministries. Later on, Rexella would serve as his co-host on the “Jack Van Impe Presents” television series.
More than 60 years later, the TV series is still running and being shown across the United States and Canada. Recent reports estimate that the Jack Van Impe Ministries International Foundation rake in around $12 million annually.
The 85-year-old Van Impe is believed to receive an annual salary of $150,000, which many believe isn’t totally accurate as his net worth is currently set at $2.5 million and still climbing.
