Generosity is a critical aspect of all Christian ministries. It is essential to healthy discipleship and central to following Jesus. Join us in this six part online course as we explore how to develop a culture of generosity in your ministry context.
You will learn the key elements of cultivating generous stewardship in your life, in the life of your community and in the lives of your ministry supporters. In this six part course, you’ll discover:
 
  • How to create a vision to guide and expand your ministry’s generous culture;
  • How to build a team of ambassadors to help drive generosity forward;
  • How to change the culture of generosity in your church;
  • How to engage philanthropists and marketplace leaders;
  • How to celebrate generosity in your church;
And so much more!

Here's What You'll Learn in this Online Training:

The Culture of Scarcity and Consumerism: As men and women come into the Church and the saving grace of Christ, they bring with them the culture of the world. Nothing is more prevalent than the culture of scarcity and consumerism in our society. In this opening session, your instructor will help identify the tension points between the expectations of the capitalist system and the life in Christ. Your instructor will help you to pinpoint and mitigate these tension points to open your ministry’s congregants and supporters to align with a biblical pattern of thinking.


The Need for a Vision: A clearly defined, effectively communicated, and widely shared vision that becomes attractive and worthwhile to its constituents is required for a growing and effective ministry. In this session, your instructor will help ministry leaders understand the difference between an idea and a vision, how to clearly define a ministry vision, and how to work to establish that vision into the DNA of the ministry. Creating opportunities of generosity requires a clear and compelling vision. It’s the spine of the entire movement. Ministries often fail because of a fundamental lack of vision or lack of communicating consistently that vision to their constituents. This can cause mission drift. This session will set the tone for the remainder of the day.

Building a Team of Generous Ambassadors: In order to drive your generosity vision to become a bright, living reality, it will take a team of Generous Ambassadors. Rarely does this team exist within the operation of your ministry. In this session, your instructor will help you identify the right mix of individuals to be those ambassadors.

We will explain:
  1. the discipleship process in growing these people into passionate evangelists of generosity;
  2. the development of stewardship leaders;
  3. and development of marketplace leaders. All of who ultimately will drive your movement of generosity forward. With this training, this team should take on a life of its own. Caution: control freaks will struggle with this concept. {SMILE}
Changing the Culture: Generosity is not a church program or merely an adjective that is tacked on to an existing ministry vision. It must, in fact, be infused into the DNA of every area of ministry. In this session, your instructor will help you identify the key leverage points to affect culture change, to open the entire congregation to the conversation of generosity, and to change your ministry into a new way of thinking and responding to generous opportunities.There’s an old saying if you don’t establish the culture, the culture will establish itself. Here’s your chance to impact your community in a profoundly significant manner by changing the way your constituents think and respond.

Engaging Philanthropists and Marketplace Leaders: Within every ministry is a segment of supporters who are often significantly overlooked and, therefore, under-challenged. These are the philanthropists and marketplace leaders. Frequently, ministry leaders simply misunderstand their felt needs and challenges. Consequently, we regularly operate under a false belief that this segment of our ministry has its spiritual and temporal life together when in fact, under the veneer of material comfort, these people often struggle with the worldview of an immature believer.In this session, your instructor will help you identify the needs of philanthropists and marketplace leaders, understand their unique communication style, and learn how to best minister to this group.

Celebrating Generosity: Now that we’ve helped you identify the problems, build your vision, establish your team, begin changing the culture, and found a ministry to your marketplace leaders, you can watch your ministry bear fruit. This fruit will now become contagious to the vision of your ministry.In this session, your instructor will give you practical and field-tested insights on how to communicate–and celebrate–ordinary and extraordinary acts of generosity. Imagine a middle school child sacrificing his allowance and recruiting others to do likewise to sponsor a Compassion child. Or watch a family donate the proceeds from the sale of their vacation home for God’s purpose. These and hundreds of other examples will encourage and motivate a lifestyle of generosity for the Glory of His Kingdom and will soon become part of your increasingly generous and fruitful ministry.

In his concise and potent guide to a generous life, Mike Stickler offers a very practical and biblically faithful tour of the fundamental principles of a life that invests in eternity by transmuting the lead of what is passing away into the gold of what will endure forever.

This devotional has challenged me in a most refreshing way on my journey of learning to be "generous on every occasion". These daily readings are fantastic reminders to rely on the truth in God's Word and to be led by His Spirit in generous living!

Dr. John Jackson | GenerousLife.net
The church in America needs many things. A generous spirit and life is near the top of the list. Read this book and accept the challenge!
- Dr. John Jackson, President of William Jessup University Author of six books on Transformational Leadership and Personal Renewal.
The word "generous" originally had the meaning of a person from "noble birth." What it meant was that generous people were a cut above the crowd and because of their charity it seemed that they were from nobility. Mike has written a phenomenal book of what it means to walk in that nobility. If you want to change your life and change the lives of others you need to get this book, read it, re-read it, live it, and teach it. And then watch as you change the world one day at a time.

I've known Mike 13 years and I have huge respect for him. I love the fact he's taking his life-long learning, knowledge, and passion, and placing it into a book to be share with the rest of us. Mike is one of the best I've ever met when it comes to looking at the heart of why something exists. If anything was created to make our world a better place, it has to be created with God's vision of how we make it sustainable. In 41 days, Mike will help you understand how we create the foundation to make things last as long God needs them to last and become everything it was never meant to be.
- Peter Strople, Philanthropist
This book tells you step by step how to find the joy, responsibility, challenges and rewards God has for giving generously. You will find it also gives you a happy heart when you think about giving!
