   Stop Lottery Ticket Fundraising: Build Donor Relationships Instead | Nonprofit Missionary Podcast

   What is lottery ticket fundraising—and why can it leave a nonprofit waiting for one big grant, wealthy donor, or viral post to save the budget? In this episode of the Nonprofit Missionary Podcast, Kenneth McQuiller explains why fundraising built on luck and hope is not a sustainable strategy. He shares a personal story, reflects on James 2 and Proverbs 13:11, and offers a better path: build genuine donor relationships, communicate consistently, and steward gifts well. This is episode 3 of the Movement to Momentum series.#NonprofitFundraising #DonorRelationships #GrantWriting

   10 Grant Application Attachments Your Nonprofit Should Have Ready

   What documents do you need for a nonprofit grant application? Start by organizing your IRS determination letter, financial records, organizational and project budgets, board list, and funding sources. Then prepare supporting materials that help a funder understand your work. In episode two of Movement to Momentum, Ken McQuiller of Nonprofit Missionary walks through 10 grant attachments, explains why funders ask for them, and shares a simple way to keep them accessible. This episode is for nonprofit leaders, ministry founders, and faith-based organizations that want to spend less time searching for paperwork when a grant deadline is approaching. The 10 attachments covered: IRS determination letter Form 990 and/or audited financial statements Organizational budget Project budget Board of directors list Funders list Annual report Strategic plan Case for support Program flyers Requirements vary by funder. Use the application instructions to decide which documents to submit, and include optional materials when they add useful context and the funder allows them. Your next step: create one clearly labeled grant attachments folder, gather your current documents, and give the people helping with your applications appropriate access.

   The God Who Sees: What Hagar Teaches Us About Ministry Pain

   God sees you, even when no one else seems to. In this teaching from Genesis 16, we examine Hagar, the first person recorded in Scripture to give God a name. Hagar was a servant caught in a painful situation she did not create. When she ran into the wilderness, the angel of the Lord met her there. She responded by calling Him “El Roi,” the God who sees. In this episode, Kenneth McQuiller explores what Hagar’s story teaches us about God’s concern for vulnerable people, how encounters with God can change us even when our circumstances remain difficult, and why faithful ministry and nonprofit leadership often require us to live with discomfort. You’ll learn: Why God pays attention to overlooked and undervalued people How God can change us without immediately changing our circumstances Why faithful leadership requires obedience, not constant comfort What Hagar’s encounter reveals about God’s character Scripture: Genesis 16, particularly verses 7–13 If this message encouraged you, share it with someone walking through a difficult season and subscribe for more conversations about faith, nonprofit ministry, and purpose-driven leadership. #Hagar #Genesis16 #BibleTeaching #ChristianLeadership #FaithBasedNonprofit
