6 Values for Generosity Campaign and Initiative
Stewardship
Stewardship is part of our identity in Christ. Generosity is never simply an engaged activity but an identity shaped by our understanding of following Christ.
Communication
To communicate thoroughly so everyone will have the opportunity to understand God’s vision. The campaign response will come from a place of deep understanding and not simply a rationale for a new building or initiative. In other words, helping people understand the “why” in your vision, and “Who” shapes your future, not simply explaining the “what".
Challenge
To challenge everyone to engage spiritually before making any financial response. In other words, for individuals to experience God in the process and not simply raise funds.
Safe Place
To create a safe place for people to process meaningful generosity. For many, giving feels like a risky endeavor requiring safe space to process over time. The pacing of the process is crucial. We encourage everyone to ask questions for clarity and understanding.
Principle of Proportionate Giving
To ask each person to determine God’s Will in this vision campaign proportionate to his/her ability to give.
Joyful Atmosphere
To create an atmosphere so no one will give up under duress or pressure. Everyone who gives should experience great joy as a result.
Repeat Campaigns
Repeat campaigns are a testimony to Culture of Ready commitment to relationships and excellence. Partnership deepens to relationship for many of our churches. More than once, Doug Turner and the Culture of Ready has worked multiple times with Willow Creek Community Church, Redeemer Presbyterian Church, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Granger Community Church, Calvary Chapel Ft. Lauderdale, Church of the Resurrection, Mariner’s Church and Eagle Brook Church.
