If you are a leader of a business, a mission organization, or a church, you’ve likely faced some tough decisions recently about projects and people because of the realities of the global economic downturn. You may have had to “tighten the belt” by delaying major projects or expenditures, cutting salaries, limiting business travel or even making the tough decision to lay off people. In the midst of all this, work that should or could get done is delayed.
When this affects the advance of the gospel, how should we respond? Do we just spend even more time fund raising? Should we “enhance” our ministry reports to current (and potential donors) describing what we will do with their money – making the statistics shine a bit brighter in our favor? I mean after all it’s for God’s work, so a little embellishment can’t hurt, right?
