Cover Story: Faith-based Fundraising

Enjoy your ministry!
As with any new ministry, we expected some initial resistance to “A Ministry for People With Money.” And we expected that some congregations would not be open or ready to enter into this type of ministry. Conflict within a congregation makes trust tough and raising money even tougher. It’s not perfect. Volunteers still make mistakes. Leaders sometimes forget to lead. Some people don’t want to do it because they haven’t envisioned its value. Others just refuse to talk about money.
