Fundraising is for the Birds

Fundraising gets a bad rap with some Christian leaders who are uncomfortable with the idea of asking for money. They cite George Muller and Hudson Taylor as examples of great men of God who told their needs to no one but God. Some modify that approach and are willing to share “full information” with donors, “but no solicitation.” Others go so far as to suggest that personal solicitation is an unbiblical method that Christian organizations have adopted from the world.
