Increase Giving

At the National Institute of Christian Leadership (NICL), Dr. Rutland will teach you the principles needed to increase giving such as:


How to increase your tithes by nearly 10% without much effort

How to properly identify and evaluate the number of giving units in your ministry

How to identify the per unit average monthly gift in your ministry

How to analyze the giving trend and the numerical growth/loss trend

How to figure out the realistic external growth potential as well as your internal financial ceiling

How to understand the greatest difference in how people give and why

How to run a successful capital campaign (with real life example)

How to think about debt in an alternative way (good debt versus bad debt)

How to identify if you are risk-adverse or risk-tolerant and what it means for your ministry
