2 Corinthians 9

9/24/2012

 
Click here to read today's passage on Bible Gateway.

More on Giving  
Today is a continuation of yesterday's thought on giving.  The Bible often doesn't work as a handbook for various issues, but this passage is actually a really good example of the main parts of responsible fundraising.  Here's a good breakdown of it:

"The topic of fund-raising is not one to be avoided or one that should embarrass us, but all fund-raising efforts should be planned and conducted responsibly.

Information
8:4
Definite purpose
8:4
Readiness and willingness
9:7
Dedication
8:5
Leadership
8:7
Enthusiasm
8:7–8, 11
Persistence
8:2–12
Honesty and integrity
8:21
Accountability
9:3"
[1]

Obviously this is a simplification of the passage, but good and helpful thoughts nonetheless.
