As a Pastor you have the opportunity in various settings to interpret the meaning of Christian giving in the context of financial support for your congregation, annual conference and the general church. You wear many hats in the local congregation and beyond. In this section, you will find FAQ’s by clergy, sermon starters, mission moments and more and other inspirational stories of sharing to use in helping you prepare to meet the needs of your congregation.
