In this episode of the Fundraising Masterminds Podcast, we're talking about why most nonprofit boards resist fundraising, and how to get yours involved.
Tune in as we uncover the mindset shift from passive faith to active engagement. From sitting on the sidelines to stepping in to ask, we're talking about what it actually takes to move your board from resistance to ownership.
Uncover the myth of the Müller Mentality. See why “just trusting God” can become an excuse. Discover the secret of the Romans Principle. And hear the story behind a "random" $10,000 gift — that showed up right after the need was finally spoken.
So whether you're leading a hesitant board or trying to spark real engagement, this episode will show you how prayer and action work together—and why stepping forward is the turning point for breakthrough.

NEED HELP WITH YOUR NONPROFIT?
Most nonprofits are under-funded. Even if you think your nonprofit is doing well, we've found you could be doing much better. However, most nonprofits don't have a clear development strategy that keeps them grounded. As a result, they "get creative" and "try new things" based on what is popular or trending, or they get comfortable with where they are at and don't realize the dangers they will be facing in just a few short years.
The Perfect Vision Dinner Course is a 20-week "live video" course that addresses this problem head on. The course was developed by Jim Dempsey after 38+ years as a Senior Development Director at Cru. After Jim had personally done over 2,500 vision dinners in his lifetime and raised over $1 billion worldwide, Jim and Jason have partnered together to bring you Fundraising Masterminds. Our first course, The Perfect Vision Dinner is a time-tested proven formula that will introduce our development system and grow your nonprofit to its maximum potential.
The course includes 20-hours of personalized development coaching from Jim Dempsey and Jason Galicinski and also includes a real-time community group where you have access to everyone attending the course and also our Masterminds throughout the course.
The goal for this course is to fully equip you with a Biblical basis for Development so that you can Win, Keep and Lift new partners to higher levels of involvement with your nonprofit.
