〔電子〕Church Giving and Fund Raising in a Pandemic World

The corona-virus global pandemic is here. Back to normal could be a matter of years. Giving to churches is plummeting. So is the economy, leaving church members with less to give. Many congregations are forecast to go out of business. The survival of our churches is at stake. As church leaders scratch their heads to figure out how to triage the church’s declining income, this book provides guidance for how to fund the church’s mission and ministry during a global pandemic of unknown length. The focus is on how to lead the Annual Giving Campaign under these high-risk circumstances. Even after the threat of the pandemic diminishes, it’s financial impact on churches will linger for years. Author John Zehring has published books on annual giving campaigns (“Beyond Stewardship,” Judson Press) and capital campaigns (“You Can Run A Capital Campaign,” Abingdon Press).
