Raising People: A Journey of Inspiration.

Have you ever wondered what stands in the way of people raising those much-needed funds? Well, I've got a theory, and it's a two-parter. First, there's trust in the big guy upstairs – yes, you guessed it, God. Second, it's all about building your dream team of support-heroes. You see, not everyone starts off with a squad of fundraisers ready to conquer the world. That's where prayer and divine networking come in handy!

All relationships we have with God are God-given, and it's crucial to seek faithfulness in them. Why would God grant you a larger ministry pool if you haven't been faithful with the one you already have? Therefore, the key is to start with what you have and tell others about what God has done and what you're trusting Him to do.

Think of fundraising as "people raising" because we're not just chasing dollars; we're assembling a crew to tackle missions that we believe are heaven-sent solutions to earthly problems. The more folks we can rally around our cause, the faster we can make God's work happen. And speaking of God, remember this: He's all about people, not dollar bills. If He wanted riches, He could've shown up as a king, but nope, He opted for the humble servant gig, teaching us to be fishers of people.

So, here's the scoop: I’m not here to sugarcoat stuff. The real deal is going out there, challenging everyone you meet, even those you haven't met yet, to jump on board this mission. How, you ask? Well, let me break it down for you.

First, start where you are. You've got folks in your life, right? Start with them! Those contacts in your phone, social media contacts, email contacts, the people at church, and your family are your starting lineup. And trust me, you've got more relationships than you realize.

Next, expand your network. Think about where like-minded souls might hang out. Check out Bible studies, local churches, and other organizations. Find those who care about what you're doing and get them excited!

Once you've got your list of potential teammates, start tracking them. It would be best to have their info to get and stay in touch. Remember, fundraising is a contact sport! We are not just sending spammy emails or random cold calls here. We're talking about personal connections that tug at the heartstrings.

So, my challenge to you? Dive into your support database, dig up those emails, social media, directories, and phone numbers, and start inspiring and challenging people to join our righteous cause.

Remember, it's not about the money; it's about the mission. Let's be fearless fishers of people, agents of change, and world healers. Together, we've got this! ????
