CASE STUDY: GIVING at BEACHSIDE COMMUNITY CHURCH
Several churches in our coaching community use this strategy to cultivate generosity.
I recently visited Beachside Community Church in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, and watched this strategy in action.
Jonathan, the lead pastor, stepped onto the stage after the worship set and, with great enthusiasm, said:
“I’m so glad you are all here to celebrate and experience our FOR Sunday. Because we are ‘FOR our community, every fourth Sunday we ask our church to support a worthy organization in the community. Last month we asked you to give and serve with the Hope Shelter, and you came through for them in a huge way.”
Jonathan shared the serving numbers and giving amount for the Hope Shelter. They raised over $4,000 and served 40 or so total hours with this organization. After this celebration, Jonathan made the ask for this month:
“Today, we have an opportunity to do more good in our community and help another great organization go further, faster. Give a Kid a Chance is an organization focused on helping students in impoverished areas go to college and grow educationally. Our goal is to provide one or two fully scholarships for these kids and have several of you participate as a mentor. To investigate serving opportunities, you can use the QR code on the seat back. Our generosity goal is 100% participation. You can give a few dollars or a few thousand dollars.”
Now, here is where the magic happens. Remember, this is an on-ramp for people, so they need to take the first step.
“What we love about these FOR Sunday’s is that every penny you give FOR the community goes straight out the door into the community. We even cover the administrative costs and credit card fees! I know many of you have been burned by generosity in the past or struggle to trust the church with your money. I get that. If you give to this FOR opportunity today, we don’t keep or use a single penny. I hope you will go our website or use the QR code on the seatback to give. “
Another church in our growing community did this for the first time a few weeks ago, and 11 people who had never given to their church gave to a community organization through their church.
This type of on-ramp requires some follow-up and nurturing for givers, but it works. Why? It’s an easy step for anyone to take.
The same method works for engaging people to serve. Find individual moments where people who don’t yet volunteer can give an hour. Invite them specifically and create an incredible serving moment for them. It doesn’t feel like much, but it’s a step in the right direction. One that they can and will more likely take.
“Gavin has been crucial as we have sought to refine strategies to help those who attend our church take easy and obvious next steps. Over the last year, we have seen engagement rise in adult attendance, first-time guests, volunteers, and giving. I don’t doubt for one second our church is heading in a positive direction for the foreseeable future thanks to Gavin’s help and wisdom!”
– Jonathan Watson, Senior Pastor, Beachside Community Church - Fort Walton, FL
“In just two months, 122 people gave to Centerpoint Church for the very first time, and we added 18 new recurring givers! Working with Gavin on our generosity system gave us a plan to grow giving and fully fund our church.”
– Bryant Golden, Senior Pastor, Centerpoint Church - Tampa, FL
