Increase Engagement - Multiply Results
We know that good stewardship and generosity are important traits of a true disciple of Jesus Christ. Yet, so few churches intentionally work to equip their people with these essential skills. The result is lackluster engagement and commitment, especially in the area of generosity and service. In this episode of Stewardship Leader, we talk with Chris Willard and Greg Morris from Elevate Group, an organization built to equip and train church leaders to increase the engagement and commitment of their members to a greater level of service and generosity.

What you will hear in this episode
“Generosity is the hub that drives everything because ministry costs money; it takes resources to fund the ministry.”
“If a church is claiming to make disciples and is not talking to people about stewardship and generosity, they are not making disciples.”
“You can have some really generous people, but if they’re not good stewards, they won’t be generous long.”
“Our work is to come alongside these church leaders; to call their people up to a greater level of engagement and commitment, which produces a greater level of resources to accomplish the mission.”
“We work with churches and pastors and teams to build a strategy that addresses each different kind of audience in your congregation so that every one of them can be called to take whatever their next step is in this journey of generosity and stewardship.”
“If somebody were to come to your church and didn’t already know what the bible says about generosity and stewardship and giving, would they learn it from you?”
“You have to have an intentional strategy to teach generosity and stewardship!”
