Is your ministry truly worthy of a transformational gift?
In Worthy of the Gift, Bryan shares the inspiring story of Jim, Koen, and the Chrysalis team as they discover what every Christian nonprofit leader must know: donors aren’t captivated by vision alone—they’re compelled by the integrity and transformation of the leaders who carry it.
This book will challenge you to:
- Build deeper donor trust
- Create a culture of faithful stewardship
- Inspire high-net-worth partners to champion your mission
More than a fundraising guide, Worthy of the Gift is a journey of personal and organizational transformation that will reshape the way you lead.
