  • Author : Wesley K.. Willmer
  • Publisher : Victor
  • Release : 1989
  • ISBN : 9780896935624
  • Pages : 390 pages

Download or read book Money for Ministries written by Wesley K.. Willmer and published by Victor. This book was released on 1989 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those who support ministries with their money and for those who ask, it is just as important to know why as it is to know how to provide and seek funds. Because the quality of financial support and asking should be different for Christians, this book provides a practical and useful theology of stewardship to guide those who give and those who ask for funds. Money for Ministries is in part an outgrowth of the "Funding the Christian Challenge" conference which attracted over 600 participants representing 400 evangelical organizations; it also reflects the long-held desire of the editor, Wesley Willmer, for a substantive guide to Christian stewardship. This book is written expressly for: financial supporters of ministries, college and seminary classes, pastors and church leaders, professional and volunteer fundraisers, parachurch and other ministry leaders, consultants in raising money, board members and other volunteers, financial counselors, concerned laypersons. - Jacket flap.

Major concerns analyzed include: The increased professionalism of fundraising and of donating, an increased willingness of institutions to cater to the demands of donors, creation of dual roles for faculty, students and staff when they are fundraisers and donors in addition to playing their primary roles in higher education, business-university research partnerships that put business values in conflict of academic values and mission, commercialization of student athletics, and endowment use and investment. Supplemented by a series of carefully selected articles, The Kindness of Strangers needs to be read by anyone who is concerned by higher education's increasing dependency on corporate and individual donors.
