Speaking About MoneyReducing the Tension by Mark L. Vincent |
|
"Speaking About Money is enormously helpful for laypeople, clergy, and congregations. Vincent has given us instructional and inspired work that is practical and theologically sound. The way to joyful Christian freedom is by openly sharing about money as Jesus did. I’m unequivocally privileged to recommend it with great expectancy and hope." --Donald D. McClanen, Ministry of Money and Harvest Time, Inc.
Through stories, questions, and practical guidelines, Mark L. Vincent provides congregational leaders (pastors, elders, worship leaders, deacons) and leaders of non-profit organizations with insight and tools for reducing the tension surrounding public discourse about money and faithful stewardship.
"In this guide leaders will find a theological basis of Christian beliefs about money, followed by an examination of perceptions about the same. Not limited to the style of traditional books that only speak to leaders, Speaking About Money will help its readers develop their own styles to carry forward the message as they also re-birth this almost lost practice and competence."--from the Foreword by Scott Preissler, President, Christian Stewardship Association
"A wonderful resource for every congregation! Addresses many areas of church life from talking about faith and money, preaching on stewardship themes, and planning worship to how the church manages money. This is the book that I have been waiting for!"--Annemarie Klassen, Stewardship and Education for Mission, The Presbyterian Church in Canada.
