Fund raising coach and consultant Mark Pittman has written an excellent e-book on overcoming fear in fund raising for Christian Ministry.
It's available as a pdf, Kindle, or paperback book.
From the book description:
Many people who respond to God’s calling set off on the journey before they create a plan to fund it. The mission is to do good, help people, and spread God’s Word but without a funding plan they run out of resources long before they reach the finish line. Often the task of asking for money can be easy to push aside and even seem outside of God’s call.
But God’s call is complete. He understands the cost. Bills still need to get paid.
If this sounds familiar, Ask Without Fear® for Christian Ministry is for you! In these pages, fundraising expert Marc A. Pitman shows you how to fund your ministry. He also shares stories of fundraising straight from the Bible. And, as hard as it may be to believe right now, he even shows you how fundraising can be an enjoyable part of your calling!
