Five Empowering Principles for Christian Fundraisers 1. I will not forget that every gift, no matter the size, is a blessing from God. ?? 2. I will not lose faith in God’s provision and timing. ? 3. I will not be discouraged by setbacks, trusting that God has a greater plan. ?? 4. I will not measure success by the total amounts raised or numbers alone but by the impact on supporters' lives and hearts. ?? 5. I will not overlook the power of prayer in every step of our supporter journeys. ?? #christiangiving #faithbased #generosity #stewardship (Brand new and exciting podcast series for Christian fundraisers in Europe coming soon - a collaboration of Redina Kolaneci & Ivan Petro)

#ChaulkTalk A short series of meditations for major gift fundraisers using the acronym CHAULK. Post 2 of 6 H is for Humility: Humility is acknowledging that every gift, large or small, is a profound act of trust and generosity. It's not about us, but about the cause and the people we serve. Humility involves listening more than speaking, learning more than instructing. If we don’t cultivate humility in our lives, we veer toward arrogance, believing we have all the answers, potentially alienating those whose insights could lead to breakthroughs in our missions. Meditation/prayer:? “May I listen and learn well as I interact with colleagues and givers today.” #majorgifts #meditation #prayer #humility #awareness #relationships #fundraising (You can see previous posts from this 6-part series by searching the hashtag ChaulkTalk)

NEW POST - The Story of Before The Cross The guys talk about reaching people online and Mike shares the story and vision behind Before The Cross. A website and now nonprofit that reaches thousands of people, encouraging them, meeting them where they are at, and pointing them to Jesus. They discuss different themes that have come up over time such as humility, value, and the future aspirations for Before The Cross. https://lnkd.in/gSp8rBCS

The power of storytelling lies in creating environments where people encounter living examples of God’s transformative love. Within small faith communities, storytelling becomes a catalyst for intimacy and trust.

Should #nonprofits focus on positive symbols (smiling etc) to motivate donations on social media, or is the "poverty corn" image more effective? from https://lnkd.in/eFc-kBeH of The One Podcast

#PrayersMeditationsGoodthoughtsSacredvibes (Post 2 of 5 - search this hashtag to see previous posts) What do you think about prayer?? Some of you may not think much of it.? Many of you believe significantly in the power of it. Whatever your view, here’s a phrase and listening exercise I encourage you to experiment with: 1)? Hone in on this phrase:? “May the hearts and minds of people be stirred to help further the vision we have been given.”? The goal of this prayer/meditation is to remind yourself (and your colleagues) that the best supporters are those who have felt stirred in their hearts and minds to join your cause.? We remember that, at the end of the day, we are ultimately not in control of what 'stirs' people.? And maybe that’s really what this prayer/meditation is about.? “I’m not (we're not) in control of who supports us.” 2)? Spend 7 to 10 minutes listening.? Write down words and phrases in your private journal.? 3)? Go about your day. #majorgifts #prayer #meditation #awareness #listening #watching #waiting #control? #fundraising

#PrayersMeditationsGoodthoughtsSacredvibes (Post 5 of 5 - search this hashtag to see previous posts) What do you think about prayer?? Some of you in my LinkedIn sphere may not think much of it.? Many of you believe significantly in the power of it. Whatever your view, here’s a phrase and listening exercise I encourage you to experiment with: 1)? Hone in on this phrase:? “Help me (us) to have empathy and compassion for everyone that we come into contact with regarding this vision.? Help us to look at them and love them.”? The goal of this prayer/meditation is to remind yourself (and your colleagues) that you may be playing a key role in the positive transformation of those you interact with, even if they are not treating you respectfully.? Even if they walk away from you. 2)? Spend 7-10 minutes listening.? What rises to the surface as you pray/meditate on this phrase?? Write it down in your private journal. 3)? Go about your day.? There are more people who need to hear about your vision. #majorgifts #prayer #meditation #awareness #listening #watching #waiting #love? #fundraising
