Research Results Highlights and Proven Ways to Grow Givers & Giving In Your Church

Webinar endorsement quote: "Wow!  What a blessing.  This was the best hour I've spent in a long time.  Great content AND motivation.  I can't wait to go through the bonus material and sharing this with other other leaders at my church."

Our research shows over half of the churches are struggling with flat or declining giving.  This webinar will provide VALUABLE SOLUTIONS to help turn things around.  For churches that are doing well, this webinar will give you inspiration, instruction, and ideas to do even better in creating a culture of generosity in your church.

This dynamic webinar will be filled with PROVEN IDEAS for growing generous givers and giving in your church.

WEBINAR BONUS ITEM

($29.95 Value)

50 Best Practices & 80 Best Websites to Increase Giving (plus 12 month church planning calendar)

In this webinar you and others will learn:

  • Key highlights from 1,500+ Churches on the STATE of the PLATE Research and 1,400+ View from the Pew Research

  • The 5 Proven Ways to INSTRUCT, INSPIRE, INFLUENCE, INVOLVE, and IGNITE people to greater generosity and increased giving

  • 3 Things Any Church Can Do to Help Increase Giving 10% or More in the Next 12 Months

  • BONUS MATERIALS: 50 Best Practices & 80 Best Websites to Increase Church Giving eBook ($29.95 Value) with a 12 Month Stewardship Planning Calendar Worksheet.

This is a great resource for church pastor/s, staff, leaders, or committee members to watch and discuss together. Or it can be watched from the comfort and convenience of people's own computer.  A group can then discuss which ideas can be adopted or adapted for use at your church to grow givers and giving.

COST: Just $39 (with permission for multiple people to watch in your local church) Important note: This $39 is a great value, since many church stewardship training events are expensive with registration fees and travel costs. And usually only one or two people can take the time to attend.  But you can share this video recorded webinar with multiple committee members, leaders, and staff, and pastor(s) in your church without anyone having to take time off to travel to an event. 

Note to leaders and influencers in denominations and ministerial groups: If you would like to provide this webinar and bonus materials for just a few dollars per church (or a live webinar or training event), please email us.
