As a ministry worker, raising support can be a daunting task. It doesn't have to be intimidating though. It isn't about money or asking people to give. It is about looking to God to provide for you. He has given you a vision for ministry, and now you get to invite others into that vision. Your job is to pray and work hard to discover those whom the Lord has already prepared to invest in you and your ministry. God has done His work. Now it's time for you to do yours.
A case in point: Nehemiah was very nervous about meeting with the wealthiest, most powerful man on the planet. He was asking King Artaxerxes to fund his Jerusalem restoration project. But when it came time to make his appeal, this lowly cupbearer first looked up to the Person who really provides resources. At the moment of truth, Nehemiah lifted his heart and made The God Ask. In Nehemiah 2:4 he describes the exchange: "Then the king said to me, 'What would you request?' So I prayed to the God of heaven."
Instead of going into appointments fearing what your fellow man will say, you can have confidence that God is superintending the whole process. This book will help you embrace the fact that this is not a Man Ask. No. It is a God Ask!

Most encouraging book on ministry partner developement in years
By Sandy Spangler
This book has the best combination of Bibical content and real life application of anything I have ever read when it comes to developing and cultivating a team of ministry partner. Steve hits the nail on the head when it comes to sharing your ministry with passion and urgency in the power of the Holy Spirit. I personally ordered 100 copies for the staff in our ministry because I am convinced it will revolutionize their support raising efforts. Thank you Steve for sharing your heart.

Challenged, Motivated, Inspired
By Sharpie
Rather you're going into full-time ministry or not this book is for you! Steve Shadrach has the unique ability to zoom out and bring perspective into any reader. This book allowed me to gain a proper perspective on giving and asking. I have a deeper desire to increase my giving. Also, having recently committed to full-time ministry, I am no longer scared or intimidated to raise my support. Instead I am excited to devote myself to implementing the God Ask!!!

Good, but I have a hard time understanding what ministry the author does if he is busy doing everything outlined in this book
By Steve Bremner
This was a great book.
I have been living abroad since 2009, and have struggled sometimes with raising and maintaining monthly support. I first read "Funding Your Ministry" by Scott Morton when I left for the mission field, and started implementing some of the things that author outlined in that book. I've even lent my copy to others.
Recently for my birthday I shared my Kindle Wishlist on Facebook and one of my supporters bought me a copy of this book as I had hoped to get it.
As I started to read it, I noticed that in the beginning the author drives home the concept of praying about who to ask, so as to not waste all your time asking and asking and asking potential supporters. In fact, after our latest newsletter prior to starting this book, my wife and I had prayed and asked God for names to put on a list of people we were going to start asking, and immediately the first four approached us before we could ask and tell us they felt led to support us. This helped confirm for us that if we commit this to the Lord, he's probably speaking to the hearts of those we feel compelled to ask. Reading this book lit a fire of boldness in us to start contacting others ASAP.
So, with that in mind, here's some thoughts:
First, the positive:
--I felt VERY encouraged, and a gentle slap on the butt to get going and do a better job maintaining *relationship* with my supporters. I found the tips and suggestions in this book to be invaluable.
--The 11 appendices at the end of the book are what truly make this book worth the money. Morton's Funding Your Ministry book has similar ones, but since I have that book in paperback and this one by Shadrach in Kindle format, being able to just click on them and get them from the internet directly is faster and more convenient.
--There truly isn't anything unbiblical or unethical in this book, in my humble opinion. So there's no "bones" to spit out and reject in terms of take the good leave the bad. There seems to be little to no bad that needs to be ignored.
--I feel a renewed sense of confidence and initiative to view my supporters as **partners** with me instead of 'donors' or 'supporters'. I kinda already did, but this book helped solidify that for me
--I have new ideas I'm already starting to implement.
The negative/questions I had after reading:
--Most of this will be relevant and applicable to people beginning their support raising journey more so than those of us who have already made it overseas. Some of us who are already on the field just simply **can't** drive a few hours to another state or province to spend time or go for lunch with our supporters. Some of us can't really afford (yet) the ability to just call or text random partners on our cell phones as the author does. But contrary to the author's suggestions, Skype/iChat and long-distance phone calls will have to do the trick until/unless the overseas missionary is on furlough and back in their home country.
--Which leads to my next question about how on earth the author actually does any ministry if he truly and honestly does **everything** all the time as he outlines in this book! One of the other commenters suggested that this author appears to be a "career" fund raiser, always raising new support. I didn't quite get that suspicious of a vibe reading this book, and did not expect the book to outline what ministry he does since the goal of this book was to help people raise support.
--I also don't think I come to the same conclusion or agree with the author's downplaying of tentmaking ministry. In fact, from having done considerable research on the subject, I feel the author is simply mistaken in his assessment of the apostle Paul's life. Which leads to another concern of mine that people swing the pendulum from one extreme or the other when it comes to being working instead of raising support. While I agree with the author that if you had some kind of money-making income that caused you to not need to raise support or trust God the same way for finances, you will miss out on ways that such fund-raising helps build your character and increase your faith to trust the Lord to provide, but who is to say God can't or doesn't do the same type of work in our hearts through starting businesses or other things. Why does it have to be an either/or instead of a both/and? For more on the other perspective, I heartily recommend readers also read The Missional Entrepreneur by Mark L. Russell for a different perspective on the life of Paul.
That being said, I whole-heartedly recommend people who are planning on going on the mission field, already there, or doing any kind of domestic ministry that doesn't pay their salary to read this book, but don't just read it. Implement as much of it as applies to your situation. You won't regret it.
