Description
Women are entrepreneurs, highly paid professionals, and leaders in business. Many have skills, time, and money to give, but don't have a place to look for guidance on how to be a wise steward of the resources they have been given.
Kim King, a former corporate lawyer, tells her own giving story in When Women Give. She answers questions that many women face, such as:
How much do I give?How do I find good organizations that are efficient and effective?
What are some of the common methods of giving?
How do I find others to join me on this journey?
From her perspective as a donor and from serving on the boards of several Christian nonprofits, King's advice fosters growth in giving at any level and shows how to root all giving decisions in a biblical framework.
Advance Praise
"When God blesses us with the talent and opportunity that enables us to achieve financial success, we want to honor him. But we need a game plan. This book provides an eye-opening common-sense approach for every woman seeking a life of kingdom giving and living. Whether serving on a board or providing financial support, you will learn much and find yourself well equipped to fulfill God's plan for his kingdom."
—Fran McKinney, senior VP, McGriff, Seibels & Williams
"We do not typically think about giving as an adventure, but When Women Give opens our hearts and minds to the joy of living generously. Too often we sit in the pews and hear about giving to meet a church budget or to build a new church facility. We miss the connection of partnering with God to let him direct how he wants us to use his money and resources. When Women Give shares inspiring stories of generous giving but also provides practical information and tools for us to use in joining God on the journey of generosity."
—Laurie Rachford, general counsel, ExxonMobil Chemical Company
"I was captivated by the stories shared in Kim King's book. As I work with women in the workplace, I'm surprised at the lack of understanding of financial tools available to enable giving in a much bigger way than most imagine. Not only does Kim provide 'giving' guidance, but she shares stories where God truly takes hearts and opens them to never-thought-about possibilities regarding generosity."
—Diane Paddison, founder of 4word, author of Work, Love, Pray, former global executive team of two Fortune 500 companies and one Fortune 1000 company
"Kim King has written an outstanding book on generosity—a topic that is embodied with integrity in her daily life. This is not just a book for women, but one that men and women alike should read. It's compelling, comprehensive, and filled with biblical and practical wisdom. It's well researched and full of personal stories and practical tools. I commend it to you highly."
—Jim Herrington, cofounder, Faithwalking
