Plenty of programs have good ideas, yet they fail to provide leaders with suggested sermons and orders of worship, e-mail messages, letters, newsletter announcements, marketing messages, and other detailed, practical help. Many programs talk about the role of giving in the spiritual life, but they do not involve church members in thinking and praying about their financial discipleship on a day-to-day basis.
Created by Michael Reeves and Jennifer Tyler, Extravagant Generosity is built on Bishop Robert Schnase’s groundbreaking book Five Practices of Fruitful Congregations. Extravagant Generosity succeeds where other programs fail.
The Program Leader Guide with CD-Rom is a guidebook for leaders that covers all aspects of the campaign, from detailed plans for each of the four Sunday services to marketing materials like flyers and postcards to e-mail messages and letters designed to be sent to specific groups within the congregation–all available on the enclosed CD-ROM.
Additonal components to the campaign include: an overview timeline, the devotional book Practicing Extravagant Generosity, a small group leader's guide, and a DVD.
A kit is available featuring all of the components including the Program Leader Guide.
Churches who recommend this program:
"Our congregation really enjoyed the program, especially the heart cards! In addition, we saw a nearly 15% increase in pledges, despite a rough economic year and other challenges!” –Shannon Davis, Pastor, First United Methodist Church, Wagoner, OK
“Using Extravagant Generosity program, we saw many families increase their giving. Those who increased their yearly pledge did so on an average of 20 to 35%!”—Reverend Mike Miller and Program Director Nancy Cleveland, Trinity United Methodist Church, Wichita Falls, TX
“The congregation said it was the best stewardship campaign the church has experienced in years.”—Reverend David M. Carr, Pastor, Kessler Park, UMC, Dallas, TX

Store description
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
