Maximize is the ultimate how-to book for pastors and church leaders who long for their churches to be able to carry out ministry initiatives.

· develop an ongoing stewardship system
· follow up with givers the right way
· develop multiple giving options
· shepherd the five types of givers in your church
· educate people to grow in the grace of giving

Stewardship is an essential part of discipleship. This biblical process will chase the money discussion out of the darkness and turn first-time givers in your church into generous stewards of financial gifts.
