A successful legacy is best achieved by the skillful blending of the work of the ministry with the wealth of the giver around a common vision. Too often, ministries and givers never work together to develop their legacy plans, resulting in many ministries lacking the financial resources to effectively fulfill their calling. Why? Because the gift of giving has been tied up; held back; leashed. It is time for ministries to stop looking for donors to write them a check and begin to minister to those who have the gift of giving, helping them fulfill their calling to give. It is time to unleash the gift of giving. In Unleashing the Gift of Giving, through scriptural truths, practical insights, and engaging examples, Rusty Russell explains how a ministry can both minister in their calling and minister to the ones with the gift of giving. By doing this, ministries can unleash the gift of giving to provide the financial resources to accomplish their calling as well as build a sustainable ministry legacy that will survive the founder.
