Are We Teaching Enough about Giving

LIFEWAY RESEARCH – SURVEY OF 3500 SENIOR PASTORS
- 25% of pastors said their church members have a significant amount of personal debt
- 65% of pastors said they had preached on stewardship in the past year
- 6% of churches had offered a small group study on financial stewardship, money management of debt reduction.

If the pastors of our churches don't live and teach stewarship, who will. -- Joe Sangl

How Do Christians Respond to Economic Crisis

Our ability to see the vision and transfer that vision to the people is the defining moment of leadership. The more valid reasons that we have to accomplish a vision the greater the chance we have to achieve it. One or two reason can get blown away. The dream is validated by the number of reasons for achievement.
YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO TRANSFER FROM ME to WE!! --- John Maxwell

If you are concerned about the recession and the economy then your vision is not from God. Vision from God is recession proof. -- Brian Tome

Wow! Enough said. We trust God in everything or we don't trust him!
