Whose Offering Plate Is It?

Description

If you want people to give, offer them a compelling vision of how their giving is going to build God's kingdom. In  Not Your Parents' Offering Plate , Clif Christopher challenged churches and pastors to take a lesson from the leaders of not-for-profit organizations: if you want people to give to your church, first offer them a compelling vision of the good that their giving will accomplish. The book encouraged an entire culture change for many in the Christian community in how they viewed the offering plate. It also unleashed a barrage of questions on specifically how to create this new culture while maintaining the foundations of one's faith tradition and mission.
