The Stewardship System is a research-oriented paradigm based on scripture that results in greater generosity. It is an organizational process that facilitates a disciple's response to God's blessings. This system (book, workbook, website, and downloadable free resources) is an essential antidote to the Church's stewardship failure. When the average church-goer gives only 1-2 percent of their income to the church, something has to be done - and this book is a clear guide to action. Filled with 30 years of case studies, best practices, academic studies, and personal stories, THE STEWARDSHIP SYSTEM is a fun, easy read. I like the balance of scripture and research. You don't often find that blend in the church world. I saw these techniques in action in my church, and I appreciate the results. --Friar Gregory Hartmayer, Bishop of Savannah How often do you find a book about stewardship written by a guy who rode a motorcycle across Africa and wrestled an alligator? And those experiences are somehow related to stewardship! At the least, it is an entertaining presentation. --Fr. John Spicer, Rector, St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, Kansas City As a church, we are failing at stewardship. The average member gives 2% of their income and less than an hour a month to their church. The Stewardship System provides a comprehensive, systematic approach on how we as a church can reverse this dramatic failure and usher in a new era of generosity of time, talent and treasure. --Dr. Dan Dahlquist, Former Pastor, Grace Church of Centennial Colorado Denis Greene is the president and founder of Church Development, Inc.
