Duke Kwon writes, "I walk by a brown brick church in my neighborhood every day. On Sunday, the aging but still impressive building will be empty on Easter for the first time in a hundred years. And soon, the building will be converted into luxury condos."

Nonprofit Quarterly
Many nonprofits are just now becoming aware—or just now remembering—that the Financial Accounting Standards Bureau (FASB) issued new standards for nonprofit financial statements back in 2016 that apply to audited financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. While the new FASB standards officially apply only to the presentation of nonprofit audits, knowing FASB well enough to be innovative in financial reporting is worth a bit of study by all nonprofits.

 Hosting a special event at your church requires a few extra steps than Sunday services. Before you go too far down the road planning your next event, make sure you've considered these items. First, make sure to reserve the space you need. Each ministry department likely hosts a few events throughout the year. The last thing you want to do is double-book rooms or even the entire church facility. If you don't already have a room reservation system, it's time to put one in place.

Carey Nieuwhof writes, "One of the questions almost every church leader I know is asking is “How do we reach Millennials?”—that demographic of young adults now in their mid-20s to age 40. It’s a great question. They’re hardly kids anymore. They’re today’s adults. And many churches have missed them altogether."

If you’re a church-going citizen, you know every Sunday that collection plate gets passed around to give your offerings to God. You also probably know that some of the good Christian folks might get a little skimpy with the donations, using every excuse in the book. Well one religious institution is getting their money one way or another by making it easier for folks to donate if they don’t have cash.

The two stone churches near the foot of Broadway, in the shadow of the World Trade Center, have seen fire and calamity and the sweep of American history, and through it all have kept their doors wide open. But in a sign of the times, Trinity Church and St. Paul’s Chapel in New York City both installed metal detectors this month.

Jim Egli writes, "One of the most significant findings from my research involving over 4,000 small group leaders is that praying leaders have faster growing groups. I’ve always been intrigued by this. Why does something that no one sees—the leader’s personal time with God and their prayer for their group—impact a small group’s growth so significantly? I think there are four simple reasons why praying leaders have more magnetic groups."
