Fundraising for Church Capital Projects
by Ben Harder

Capital fund campaigns to raise money for ministry and facility expansion are a very exciting time in church life.  Full financial potential however is not achieved by a simple ‘ask’ based on the assumption that the donor is ready to respond.  To be successful, campaigns need to be based on sound planning, clear vision, biblical focus, sound education and motivation, effective communication of the ‘worthy cause’…all of which are aspects of preparing the donor to respond.

In this book, Ben Harder shares some of the lessons learned from leading over 250 churches through the design and implementation of successful capital campaigns.

To deal with this concern, this book will be found to be very helpful. All churches have significant untapped latent financial potential.  Doing perhaps what has always been done may not result in tapping that extra potential.  This book identifies the new paradigms of church fundraising and proposes various ways those can be addressed and remedied so that the needed resources can be received to fund vision.
