Consultations with Congregations:
Consultations are tailored to the desires and concerns of the individual congregation.

Basic Stewardship Education
Often, new committees appreciate hearing some stewardship basics. What are the principles that make for good stewardship? Such meetings can be open to all leaders in the congregation. The subjects of stewardship education and ministry interpretation cover a wide range. Call or E-mail me to further discuss this option.

Capital Campaign Preview
Are you planning a capital campaign in the next couple of years? Perhaps it would be a good idea to review what makes a good capital campaign. I do not conduct capital campaigns for congregations, so I have nothing to sell. I’ll cover issues such as:
  • How is a capital campaign conducted?
  • Are we ready for a capital campaign?
  • Should we call in professional counsel?

    Intro to Annual Programs
    I’ll gladly discuss any annual stewardship program you might like to consider. I can also share an overview of all campaign models that might be appropriate for your congregation. While most programs are designed to work well in all churches, some are more appropriate for certain congregations than others.

    Council Retreats/Workshops/Seminars
    As long as the subject is stewardship (my only portfolio), I’ll gladly spend a day working with you. This can include a number of stewardship topics, or it can focus on one, such as Spiritual Gifts Analysis and The Stewardship of Time. I can only lead a few workshops each year, so it’s a good idea to plan in advance.

    Leading Your Annual Response Program
    Some programs, like Herb Miller’s Consecration Sunday, or an Every Member Visit best utilize the help of an outside leader. I’m available as my schedule permits. Planning in advance helps assure availability.
