Upcoming WebinarsUpgrading Your Annual CampaignThursday, July 9, 2020, 6:30 PM, CDT Will your church be planning an annual campaign this year, and is it part of a broader stewardship strategy for your church? Join Ken Sloane and his guests Alan Wildes and Chris Stovall (stewardship consultants with Generis) who will share what they have seen and learned in regard to generosity as they have helped faith communities achieve their vision. Let this webinar spark some ideas that will help raise the impact of your campaign!
A Closer Look at the OfferingThursday, September 10, 2020, 6:30 PM, CDTChurches are struggling with the decline in people using check or carrying cash, and the rise of digital money to take care of financial commitments. It has left many with the question if “passing the plate” is a relevant part of worship? Join us for this webinar as Ken Sloane (Director, Stewardship & Generosity) and his guest Dr. Ed Phillips (Assoc. Professor of Worship, Candler School of Theology) share a discussion of the evolution of the Offering as worship and as the vehicle for funding our ministry.
