10 ways to increase church giving 10-25%
The Christian Stewardship Association is a professional organization of Christian stewardship professionals. I stumbled across 10 steps to better church giving while searching their site for something completely different. I was impressed at how simple and practical the suggestions were.
The only step that I see missing is implementing an offering envelope mailing program. (But maybe that's because I'm a little biased.) That aside, offering envelopes may be the most effective "call to action" tool that any church can consider as part of their overall strategy. Helping people understand the "what" and "why" to give isn't enough. You have to give them a way to respond--a way that is simple and instant.
