MYTE Ministries is offering this five session webinar series titled Cultivating the Craft of Asking, starting February 24th and every other Wednesday through April 21st for 90-minute sessions. Spring Cohort Registration COMING SOON!
Participants will be challenged to apply what is learned after each session resulting in tangible outcomes by the last session. We expect participants to experience an average increase of $20,000 in new gifts to their ministries.
- Session 1: Money Values
- Explore our personal history and relationship with money, biblical foundations, motivations and meanings of money.
- Session 2: Understanding the Donor’s Story and Values
- Practice listening and interpersonal skills to discover other’s visions and interests. Explore how personality impacts listening and empathy style. Learn how greater self-awareness translates into a more effective “ask.”
- Session 3: Values-Based Asking
- Prioritize donor wishes from what you’ve learned through listening. Learn to suspend assumptions and personal anxiety and explore the donor’s visions, values, and motivations
- Session 4: Practicing the Craft
- Review disciplines, rituals and preparation for building professional relationships. Distinguish ‘cultivation’ from ‘asking’ and understand these as different, but complementary activities. Learn to prepare for and practice “asking.”
- Session 5: Sustaining Relationships
- Each donor has unique needs for ongoing cultivation, relationship building, and pastoral care. Continue to hone your skills and celebrate the spiritual connection to the craft of the “ask”.
