Jerry Keucher-Facilitator


KeucherJerry is the author of Remembering the Future: Asset Management and Financial Leadership, a book which grew out of his work with congregations during his years on the administrative staff of the Diocese of New York. A second book, Humble and Strong: Accountable Leadership will be out this fall. He is a tither who believes proportional giving off the top is the key to stewardship formation. A devoted elderly lady once told him after he preached on proportional
giving, "That was the first sermon about money I've heard that didn't make me mad." His aim in these sessions is to make it possible for all of us to talk about money in ways that don't make people mad, but rather help be as generous as they've always wanted to be.

Our Goal: The goal is to train mentors to be agents for transformational stewardship development in all of their stewardship activities.
