Kitchen Table Giving flips the traditional fundraising focus from the front porch of the church to the kitchen table where donors make their charitable decisions. This unique perspective on religious fundraising will change the way religious leaders think and talk about faith, money and giving. It will also transform the donor's giving table into a sacred place of joyous generosity. "Kitchen Table Giving masterfully elucidates why religious fundraising is far more about ministry than money. Immediately accessible and compelling, this book is an indispensable resource for church leaders and all who care about vibrant, financially flourishing faith communities." - Kerry Alye Robinson, Founding Executive Director & Global Ambassador, The National Leadership Roundtable"Spending time with Kitchen Table Giving is like having a conversation with a trusted friend about things that matter most in our lives." - John Wimmer, Ph.D., Program Director, Religion Division, Lilly Endowment Inc."I will recommend this book to students for years to come." - Scott Cormode, Ph.D., Hugh De Pree Professor of Leadership Development, Fuller Seminary
