Learn how you can: become more thoughtful about the financial challenges you and your church face; see money--and your own leadership strategies-- from a different perspective; bring more calm and creativity to recurring and unexpected problems in funding ministry; concentrate on long-term ministry goals and strategic persistence to get financial support for those goals; focus on yourself and what you can impact directly rather than trying harder to convince others to give more or make different financial decisions; enjoy the stewardship process rather than dreading it each year; reduce your overall stress about church finance,

This book is an invitation to join Jesus in an exciting journey of financial discipleship. A disciple is a person who has an ongoing, life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ and who gladly shares what he or she has learned with others. Financial discipleship is so important because what we do with our money reflects our heart's priorities. Jesus said, "Where your treasure is, there your heart shall be also." A financial disciple has a clear vision, to see every follower of Christ in every nation faithfully living by God's financial principles in every area of their lives, both personally and in their work, family and community. He or she desires to know Christ more intimately, to be free to serve, and to help fund the work of the church. Join us in the journey of financial discipleship!

Outside of financial crises or large capital campaigns, "major donors" or "high-capacity givers" may be the most ignored group in churches when it comes to spiritual development. "The Ministry of Giving" is a great reminder that our financial leaders have much more to give than just financial resources, and building a bridge to them will benefit us in ways we have yet to understand or imagine. Launching a giving ministry isn't about money. It's about raising up people to fulfill the mission and vision God has placed on our hearts.
