Stewardship programs rise or fall on their ability to do two things: first, provide church leaders easy-to-grasp yet comprehensive help in planning and implementing the program; and second, connect stewardship to the spiritual lives of all the members. Plenty of programs have good ideas, yet they fail to provide leaders with suggested sermons and orders of worship, e-mail messages, letters, newsletter announcements, marketing messages, and other detailed, practical help. Many programs talk about the role of giving in the spiritual life, but they fail to involve church members thinking and praying about their financial discipleship on a day-today basis. Built on Bishop Robert Schnase’s groundbreaking book Five Practices of Fruitful Congregations, Extravagant Generosity succeeds where other programs fail. The Extravagant Generosity DVD features video segments for four group-study sessions and short clips for use in worship. Additional components for a churchwide campaign include a Program Leader Guide with CD-Rom, the devotional Practicing Extravagant Generosity, a small-group leader's guide, and an overview timeline. The Extravagant Generosity kit is available and includes all the components. Churches who recommend this program:
Our congregation really enjoyed the program, especially the heart cards! In addition, we saw a nearly 15% increase in pledges, despite a rough economic year and other challenges!” –Shannon Davis, Pastor, First United Methodist Church, Wagoner, OK
“Using Extravagant Generosity program, we saw many families increase their giving. Those who increased their yearly pledge did so on an average of 20 to 35%!”—Reverend Mike Miller and Program Director Nancy Cleveland, Trinity United Methodist Church, Wichita Falls, TX
“The congregation said it was the best stewardship campaign the church has experienced in years.”—Reverend David M. Carr, Pastor, Kessler Park, UMC, Dallas, TX
