[By John Maxwell - www.injoystewardship.com]One of the many lessons I have learned in my now fourth decade of ministry is that a pastor doing a great job will always need more money. It makes sense doesn't it? As more and more lives are being changed and people are being reached for Christ, you will continually need more education, children's and worship space along with more money. Something else I've learned is that nowhere is a pastor's credibility more on the line than during a capital campaign, because campaigns are one of the few things in ministry that is not subjective. Statements such as "Good sermon, pastor" or "I enjoyed the music today" are subjective -- but in a campaign, the money either comes in or it does not.
John Hull, President/CEO of INJOY Stewardship Services (ISS), recently sat down with me and we discussed four things every pastor should know about successful capital campaigns. For a limited time, we are proud to offer this interview as a FREE resource for you.

Please know that the reason I founded ISS back in 1992 was as a result of my own personal experiences as a pastor. Since its inception, we have helped over 4,000 churches raise over $4 billion for Kingdom purposes. The driving principle behind starting the company was knowing that the two greatest issues pastors will face are in the areas of leadership and stewardship. If your church is facing an upcoming project and a need to raise resources, please let us know. We would be honored to serve you.
Your friend,
John Maxwell
