Stewardship in 40 Nutshells will help to fill the development gap in disciples as it relates to multiple areas of stewardship. Its concise style gathers these nuggets of Biblical truth into brief and readable concepts, along with an opportunity to dig deeper into each concept. It can be used either for personal daily devotionals, for small group studies, or even as a preaching resource for pastors. It is designed to: Help identify and understand the various areas of stewardship Provide Biblical teachings that apply directly to each area Clarify how they apply to the disciple's everyday life Challenge each disciple to embrace them personally Inspire disciples to go deeper in their personal walk with Jesus "Dr. Hallett has some fantastic insights and addresses some issues that I have never really thought about in relation to stewardship before, and I'm sure most others have not either. This is a great work, a great tool, and I hope it will be widely received and used to bless multitudes of churches and their people." --Dr. Bob Entner, Stewardship Consultant Dr. Hallett has been in ministry since 1962.

The purpose of this book is not primarily about people giving more money, or about creating a culture of generosity among your people, even though Scriptural disciples will want to give their best. Giving is about discipleship more than the money. This is a book about developing disciples with a specific application on stewardship and giving, and the pastor''s involvement in helping the people do so.This book was written by an older pastor to help other pastors and ministerial students to find, identify, address, and resolve the often overlooked key factor in discipleship - the me-ism factor. Its scope can be seen in its chapter titles:The Origin of StewardshipThe Essence of StewardshipComparing Giving and StewardshipDiscipleship and the Giving GardenCultivating the Giving GardenGiving - The Essence of DiscipleshipGiving - The Essence of Overflowing JoyGiving - The Key to ChristlikenessThe Giving CategoriesThe Pastor as Example LeaderPastor''s Role in Developing Stewards & GiversVision and the Abundant Life in ChristWhat About Tithing?Giving Related IssuesThe Heavenly AccountAuthor Bio:Dr. Hallett has invested the last 52 years of his life in the ministry as pastor, evangelist, and Church Stewardship Consultant. As founder (1990) and president of TLC Ministries, Inc., he has worked very closely with hundreds of churches helping them raise major funds for their facilities. He has pioneered the Ministry Approach, which has proven itself to develop very generous stewardship and giving disciples while raising those funds. He draws from his extensive personal experience in the ministry to share with others how the development of disciples can best be accomplished while addressing the attitude issues that are related to giving and stewardship. While TLC Ministries is a discipleship ministry in a capital campaign setting, this is not a book on capital campaigns. Rather, it guides the pastor in knowing how to develop disciples within the local church. He utilizes extensive Scriptural support for these concepts.
