Stewardship in African-American Churches - eBook [ePub]

A New Paradigm
  • By Reverend Melvin Amerson
$9.99
Product Description

"When the church embraces the responsibility of living as faith managers of God's vast resources [as Psalm 24:1 teaches], the community of faith will prosper."

So begins this practical and theological study of stewardship, both in the context of the African-American church tradition and beyond. After all, a systematic approach to stewardship undergirds the ministry and mission of the church universal.

A stewardship consultant, Amerson draws upon his experience to help churches

    develop a theology of generosity;define stewardship leadership roles;celebrate the offering each week; andestablish endowment giving.

While recognizing still-relevant traditions, he also points to newer tactics and strategies convenient to both members and congregations-including electronic giving, contribution statements, and year-end giving.

A highlight of the book is Amerson's explanation of the development of a narrative budget/narrative spending plan. He also writes about stewardship education at multiple levels. This book is a solid resource for financial stewardship education.
