Testimonials about How to be Happy Giving Your Money Away

Comments from Church Leaders Who Have Used Dr. E. M. Clark’s Book on Fundraising

While seeking God for direction to take for the capital campaign, we received a copy of E.M. Clark’s book How to Be Happy Giving Your Money Away. When I read this book, which outlines procedures, presents personal testimonies, and inspires faith, I knew this was the direction God was leading us to proceed. So I purchased copies for our board and staff to read. The board members were so inspired by this book that we ordered 1,500 more to give to the families of our congregation. The reaction to the book by the congregation was amazing. Person after person called the office and wanted to know how soon they could start giving. We raised over $3,000,000 in one-year pledges. In addition, our offerings have grown considerably…

This book could change your ministry. The principles we have learned from Dr. Clark have not only helped our church raise money to purchase land and construct a building, but they have resulted in a dramatic increase in our regular giving.
