Leading During Financially Challenging Times—3
Give Bigger
Giving takes faith. And giving takes more faith when there might be less to give. That’s why in tough times, I believe it is important to give bigger.
As the spiritual leader of the church, we tend to set the tone.
- A generous pastor typically leads a generous church.
- A stingy pastor typically leads a stingy church.
My whole family met recently to plan how we could dramatically increase the percentage of our giving. It is easy to give what we know we can give. I love what God does in us when we plan to give more than we thought we ever could.
Whether your church knows what you give or not isn’t important. God knows. And I believe He will honor the faith and sacrifices of the ministry leader during rocky financial times.
What is God showing you about this?
