Stewardship: A Parish Handbook is the most comprehensive single guide ever published for parishes, diocesan leaders, and lay ministers involved in developing and implementing local-level stewardship programs. In these pages, leading stewardship specialist C. Justin Clements provides an "in-the-trenches" guide to the stewardship conversion process, based on more than 30 years of hands-on experience. With a broad focus on time, talent, and treasure, Clements covers every important stewardship topic, from the "The Stewardship Committee" and "Lay Witnesses" to "Money Myths and Misunderstandings" and "Dealing With Donors." Stewardship: A Parish Handbook also includes an extensive list of stewardship references and resources, and an appendix of sample materials for parish use. This is the most practical stewardship guidebook available today.
