In this episode of the Fundraising Masterminds Podcast, we're asking a question every Christian nonprofit leader should consider: is fundraising Biblical?

Join us as we walk through ten powerful passages that reveal the heart behind Biblical fundraising. From Exodus to Corinthians, we’re talking about everything you need to know about giving, generosity, and why it's so important to offer your partners the opportunity to give.

See how Moses’ call for offerings shaped God’s people in the wilderness. Discover what Scripture really says about asking for money. Learn why Paul called giving a privilege, not a burden. And uncover the surprising Biblical blueprint for the Perfect Vision Dinner.

NEED HELP WITH YOUR NONPROFIT?

Most nonprofits are under-funded. Even if you think your nonprofit is doing well, we've found you could be doing much better. However, most nonprofits don't have a clear development strategy that keeps them grounded. As a result, they "get creative" and "try new things" based on what is popular or trending, or they get comfortable with where they are at and don't realize the dangers they will be facing in just a few short years.

After Jim had personally done over 2,500 vision dinners in his lifetime and raised over $1 billion worldwide, Jim and Jason have partnered together to bring you Fundraising Masterminds.
