Charis Group's president Mark Brooks offers 4 keys to success
Mark Brooks, president of The Charis Group, offers 4 keys to stewardship success today in Not every church is seeing giving decline.
These are ideas to implement NOW...not when the economy gets better and all conditions are perfect.
The 4 keys are:
- Compelling vision - "Good vision trumps bad economy."
- Do something! - Churches that can not show any return on investment will struggle.
- Stewardship education - Churches that focus on stewardship consistently are weathering this downward economic time....
- Have a plan - I find that most churches do not have a plan for stewardship. They have a growth plan, a missions plan and many other plans but fail to have a plan to fund all that.
Get moving!
