hearing from god can turn your dream into reality!
Nothing compares to having a ministry dream! The dream inspires and motivates pastors and congregations to believe God can do great things and to make the personal commitment needed to see their dream become reality. The BGW|Forward in Faith solutions team is composed of experienced pastors and ministry leaders that have partnered with hundreds of pastors/churches to do more than raise money for a project. They have led people on a spiritual journey that has increased their faith, commitment, and involvement in ministry. This signature journey is called Hearing from God. The Hearing from God experience allows the congregation to make discoveries and decisions regarding Gods personal plan for their involvement in the dream. BGW|Forward in Faiths consultant team has the diversity and proven experience to partner with pastors and congregations from all Christian faiths, ethnicity and geographic regions.
I committed myself to following the process and the process works. Regular giving increased during a time when non-profit giving is down nationally. We saw a 25% increase in giving.
Pastor Brian Bolton | Center Pointe Christian Church
BGW|Forward in Faith consultants serve as your ministry partner, not just a fundraising coordinator.
All BGW|Forward in Faith consultants have extensive ministry experience. Their experience in ministry results in more sensitivity and awareness of the potential challenges that can arise when the emphasis of the campaign is just on money. With BGW|Forward in Faith, you dont just receive a capital campaign, you receive a Total Life Stewardship Strategy. This proven strategy develops ministry partners that empower the church to grow numerically during the campaign, while also increasing the number of ministry volunteers. Thats a great benefit for your church, even after the campaign is over!
Our capital campaign was refreshing. When they said the process is a total-life stewardship growing people in Christ, its true. I think our pledges reflected that.
Pastor Len Browing | The Journey at First Baptist
Forward in Faith brought focus to our congregation. As we moved forward in the campaign, more and more people became involved, attendance increased and new ministries developed.
Sue Heiskanen | Campaign Co-leader | Our Saviors Lutheran
