For those who support ministries with their money and for those who ask, it is just as important to know why as it is to know how to provide and seek funds. Because the quality of financial support and asking should be different for Christians, this book provides a practical and useful theology of stewardship to guide those who give and those who ask for funds. Money for Ministries is in part an outgrowth of the "Funding the Christian Challenge" conference which attracted over 600 participants representing 400 evangelical organizations; it also reflects the long-held desire of the editor, Wesley Willmer, for a substantive guide to Christian stewardship. This book is written expressly for: financial supporters of ministries, college and seminary classes, pastors and church leaders, professional and volunteer fundraisers, parachurch and other ministry leaders, consultants in raising money, board members and other volunteers, financial counselors, concerned laypersons. - Jacket flap.
