Grounded in scripture: A spirituality of stewardship
To provide the best possible stewardship-based church capital campaign services, Church Development began with the Biblical invitation from Malachi 3:10: "Bring your tithes into the storehouse..." Then we spent decades researching how to naturally grow stewardship - a spirituality grounded in gratitude for and generosity with God's myriad blessings. This spirituality is aptly expressed in 1 Peter 4:10: "As each has received a gift, employ it for one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace."
Not just about raising money
Capital Campaigns are not just about raising money. They are milestones in the life of a church. They are times of great spiritual opportunity when a community can grow closer and be galvanized around a common purpose. They are times when members can grow in their sense of belonging and ownership of their church's mission and vision. We've learned that making the most of these spiritual opportunities is essential to the success (in every sense of the word) of a campaign.
Realizing your unique vision
Our consultants help faith communities realize their unique vision. And because we've learned that engaging members increases generosity, we help church members take ownership of the capital campaign process, empowering them to build a culture of generosity by growing stewardship and building community.
We guide you through
Although a tailored, stewardship-based church capital campaign is more challenging, the spiritual and material fruits of this approach make it worth the work. Church Development provides expertise and guidance while sharing the workload with our clients. We follow through to deal with any challenges that surface, celebrate successes and milestones, and ensure enthusiasm remains high after the solicitation phase.
