Navigating the Money Conversation in Church - Chad Benson
How do we navigate the money conversation in church? Today, I had the pleasure of chatting with Pastor Chad Benson about this very issue. Pastor Chad shares his journey from insecurity around discussing money to leading Lifegate Church into year-over-year growth in generosity.
We explore the launch of his podcast "We've All Been There", co-hosted with Max Striplin, as they aim to bring relatable content to church leadership and reveal the reality behind successes and failures.
The episode also uncovers the value of trust in financial relationships, the power of efficient, flexible budgeting and the crucial role these factors have played in Lifegate Church's financial stewardship. Pastor Chad offers insightful advice on implementing checks and balances, reinforcing the importance of integrity in money management. We also discuss the process of creating a culture of generosity, teaching people to give, and how these elements can form an integral part of discipleship.
Moving into the realm of church expansion and financial stewardship, Pastor Chad shares his experience with Lifegate’s building expansion. We touch on the parable of the talents, which gives us insights on being faithful stewards of the resources God has given us. Pastor Chad's journey of fostering a culture of generosity at Lifegate Church serves as an inspiration for his congregants to take steps in generosity. So, get ready for an enlightening conversation on church leadership, finances, and overcoming insecurities. Trust me; you won't want to miss this.
