Solving Your Church's Money Issues

This video from Church Boom helps congregational leaders understand the paradox of increased giving while still experiencing financial challenges for their ministry. Produced with the viewpoint that growth and generosity don't always solve financial pressures, this 30-minute video describes how project-based giving can interfere with tithing patterns, how to course-correct giving habits while still building trust, and how to thoughtfully develop leaders to build for future growth.
