About the Author
For more than 16 years, Charles E. Zech, Ph.D., has been studying Catholic stewardship on both diocesan and parish levels. A professor of economics at Villanova University since 1974, Dr. Zech serves as the Director of the Center for the Study of Church Management at Villanova. He is the author of seven books, including Money Matters: Personal Giving in American Churches, Plain Talk About Churches and Money, Why Catholics Don t Give...And What Can Be Done About It, The Parish Management Handbook, Lay Ministers and Their Spiritual Practices, and Listening to the People of God: Lay People's Suggestions for Rebuilding the Parish. Dr. Zech is frequently asked to speak on stewardship at the Annual Conference of the International Catholic Stewardship Council as well as diocesan and parish stewardship events throughout the United States.
From the Inside Flap
Based on a survey of stewardship parishes across the country, this is the most comprehensive analysis of both financial and non-financial stewardship activities ever published. Author Charles E. Zech explores more than just the impact of stewardship on parish income -- he also analyzes time and talent contributions, measuring everything from volunteer activity to Mass attendance to outreach programs such as prison ministries or soup kitchen sponsorship. Activities that have a direct impact on stewardship, including community-building endeavors, financial accountability and transparency, and parish communications, are also examined.
Get ideas, confirmation, and results by understanding what works and doesn't work at stewardship parishes across the country. Every parish can benefit from this insightful study and learn how to approach stewardship in exciting, productive, and faith-building ways.
