Keeping Faith in Fundraising by Peter Harris

Keeping Faith in Fundraising by Peter Harris

Fundraising has always been an essential element of the Christian life: churches, schools, and many other organizations rely on it to function. But it is a risky enterprise, fraught with questions and challenges. How can Christians raise funds with integrity?

In this book Peter Harris and Rod Wilson, experienced fundraisers themselves, bring fundraising within the scope of normal Christian life and work. They consider fundraising in light of the relationships that lie at its heart--with God, with creation, and with ourselves.

After first laying a biblical foundation by discussing 2 Corinthians 8-9, Harris and Wilson develop seven themes central to the giving and receiving of money: integration, people, work, success, need, method, and money. In a final section, the authors offer their own personal experiences, questions, suggestions, and valuable insights that they have gained from their many years of fundraising as Christians.

Peter Harris is founder and president of A Rocha, an international Christian conservation organization, and the author of Under the Bright Wings andKingfisher's Fire: A Story of Hope for God's Earth.

Rod Wilson served as president and professor of psychology and counseling at Regent College, Vancouver, from 2000 to 2015. He is also the author of How Do I Help a Hurting Friend?
