Are you tired of asking for money from your congregants because you “need to pay the light bill?” Are you telling them that ministries “will be slashed” if donations don’t increase? If so, is this strategy working? Perhaps there is a better way to inspire giving!
You need to stop begging and start telling your story!
Inspire generosity by telling and selling your story! Generosity that springs from the heart brings joy to the giver and receiver. As the Bible says, “Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver! ” (2 Corinthians 9:7)
A great way to tell your story and highlight the many ministries and activities going on in your church is by listing them in a central location. Then, all of your congregants can go to that location to learn more about them and put names and faces with the ministries and activities. Check out the “groups” feature in our Online Member Directory program. It offers the perfect way to list your church’s activities and ministries.
Stop begging, start telling your story, and watch as God increases giving and generosity in your church!
