M. Nouwen's book <em>A Spirituality of Fundraising</em> and his approach to fundraising as a calling and ministry. Many who are inspired by Nouwen's vision remain hesitant to ask for money, saying, "I don't have the personality to raise money" or "Asking for money still feels too complicated and makes me fearful."</p> <p>Nathan Ball, a close colleague and friend of Nouwen, tackles these trepidations head-on with his workbook, providing a 4-week how-to guide for putting Nouwen's culture-shifting vision into practice. Nouwen and Ball lift up fundraising as a powerful way of loving and building community. They provide gentle guidance that will help people from all walks of life reimagine the task of fundraising and access the inner conviction and external skills to engage in the task of fundraising.</p> <p>In this workbook, readers will find the complete original text of <em>A Spirituality of Fundraising</em> plus extensive commentary on its themes. There are many questions for reflection and journaling, prompts for listening and meditation, and instructions for using the book as an individual or with a group.</p> <p>The original print book edition, without the workbook, is available <a href="https://bookstore.upperroom.org/Products/1044/a-spirituality-of-fundraising.aspx">here</a>.</p>Thu, 05 May 2022 20:22:56 GMThttps://store.upperroom.org:443/product/a-spirituality-of-fundraising-workbook-editionhttps://store.upperroom.org:443/product/a-spirituality-of-fundraising-workbook-edition-4<p>The why—and how—of faith-based fundraising and stewardship.</p> <p>For years, many faith-based fundraisers and communities have been inspired by Henri J.

But have you ever considered that it isn't easy to be the care receiver?</p> <p>"Caregiving is &hellip; about forming a relationship with another whom we might never have chosen to know. It is about doing all we do practically with the intention of growing into a relationship of respect, listening, presence, and truthfulness," Henri Nouwen writes.</p> <p>From the heart of Henri Nouwen comes wisdom for the caregiver about the transformational power of relationship in the unique bond between caregiver and care receiver. Interlacing stories from his own life and the lives of friends, Nouwen communicates warmth and compassion as he shares insights on what it means to be a caregiver and to be cared for.</p> <p>Whether you have chosen to be a caregiver or were thrust into the role by circumstances, you'll see how important and life-changing your work is. You'll also be encouraged by this beloved author who has been called one of the most influential spiritual writers of our time.</p>Tue, 16 Jan 2024 17:58:32 GMThttps://store.upperroom.org:443/product/a-spirituality-of-caregiving-2https://store.upperroom.org:443/product/a-spirituality-of-fundraising-7<p>Do you serve on your church's stewardship committee or need to raise money for a mission trip or some other faith-based cause? Perhaps the thought of asking people for money intimidates you. It's time to change the way you think about fundraising.</p> <p>"Fundraising is, first and foremost, a ministry," best-selling author and renowned spiritual teacher Henri Nouwen writes. "It's a way of announcing our vision and inviting other people into our mission."</p> <p>Nouwen encourages us to see fundraising as spiritual work and approach it confidently. "Fundraising is precisely the opposite of begging," he points out.</p> <p>Unlike most business/leadership books, <em>A Spirituality of Fundraising</em> is brief and can easily be read in one sitting.</p> <p>Sections of this booklet include:</p> <div style="margin: 5px 20px;"> <ul> <li>Fundraising as Ministry</li> <li>Helping the Kingdom Come About</li> <li>Our Security Base</li> <li>People Who Are Rich</li> <li>Asking</li> <li>A New Communion</li> <li>Prayer and Gratitude</li> <li>Your Kingdom Come</li> </ul> </div> <p>Nouwen's insights will upend your thoughts about fundraising. Never again will you feel like you're begging for money. Instead, you'll see your work as true ministry. A must-read for leaders in churches, nonprofits, ministries, and businesses!</p> <p>This book is also available as a workbook <a href="https://bookstore.upperroom.org/Products/1880/a-spirituality-of-fundraising-workbook-edition.aspx">here</a>.</p>Tue, 24 May 2022 16:01:19 GMThttps://store.upperroom.org:443/product/a-spirituality-of-fundraising-7https://store.upperroom.org:443/product/pausas-para-la-cuaresma-4<div lang="es"> <p>Tomar algunos minutos para hacer una pausa es bueno para el alma.

But how do we know for certain that our choices are moving us in the right direction?</p> <p><em>Which Way, Lord?</em> is a 6-session churchwide or small-group study that will help you understand God's desire for your life by unpacking your experiences alongside those of the apostle Paul.</p> <p>Through many detours, adversity, and time spent thinking about his life, Paul completely reoriented his understanding of faith and God's purpose for his life. God placed Paul in a community that shared God's love with him, and Paul underwent several years of training in preparation for his ministry.</p> <p>Discover how to discern and follow God's leading, explore ways God can use you and your life experience, respond to God's signals, endure hardships and doubts, and persevere with hope and faith. Rediscover the truths that you are wonderfully made, created for purpose, and equipped to live a life of significance.
