I am asked to speak and lead worship at other churches all over the country. I am paid an honorarium or am given any collected offerings. I would feel better if people could write checks to my ministry, rather than writing them out to me.
How do I do that? DBA? Sole Proprietorship? What do I need to do?
I understand I will have to pay taxes, as I'm not a "church" but what is the best way to so this?

if you are ordained, you are "self employed" so you should research IRS site on how to set up your "business" :-)
