Are You All-In? By R. Scott Rodin
It’s All His , So Are You All-In? Have you noticed that throughout Scripture, with God, it’s all-in or nothing? “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength” (Deuteronomy 6:5).

Generational Diversity By Heather Mausz
Managing Generational Diversity in the Workplace Many employers have preconceived notions about who a person is based on their generation.

Financial Stewardship By Dr. Sid Yeomans
Why should Christ-Centered leaders care about financial stewardship? I’m a stewardship nut. It’s God’s call on my life. 40 years ago as a kid growing up on a farm in Iowa I purchased, raised, and sold cattle, budgeted my earnings, and found joy in the impact of generosity. Then I went on to serve in…

Development and Finance Teams Working Together Planned gifts like charitable trusts, charitable gift annuities, donor advised funds, etc. can be key sources of funding for Christian nonprofit organizations. Because these types of gifts include ongoing interaction with donors, they can also be relationship builders for future gifts. However, planned gifts are often complex and involve…
Time to Let Go By Carmen LaBerge
Knowing and Accepting When It’s Time to Let Go It was time to let go and the Board chair solemnly referenced Philippians 3:12, “in order to take hold of new things, we have to let go. It’s time to vote to dissolve.” Letting go of programs that worked in the past is difficult. Letting go…
