Why shouldn’t we try to do this by ourselves?

#1  Self-directed programs are not effective.

Less than 2% are reported as successful.

The majority do less than 30% of the goal

desired.  PathWay has reached goals in 100%

of all campaigns.

#2  Self-directed programs are most often

trial and error.  PathWay has an established,

proven methodology and program.  Why try

to reinvent the wheel?

#3  Self-directed programs often fail to

emphasize spiritual renewal as the

priority.  PathWay believes that faith must

be nurtured, minds must be transformed,

and hearts be touched before lives of

biblical stewardship can be lived.

#4  Self-directed programs lack accountability

or force the pastor to fill the role.  PathWay

provides accountability every step of the way.

#5  Self-directed programs demand much time

and energy from the pastor and church staff.

PathWay makes few demands on your staff

and instead provides many services that assist

in lightening the load.

#6  Self-directed programs normally succeed

in involving the 20% or so active members of

the congregation, but do not involve the rest.

PathWay is able to engage the support,

ownership, and involvement of the other 80%.

#7  Self-directed programs demand that the

staff find the hours, energy, and expertise

to run a campaign in addition to their

already-crowded schedule.  PathWay

consultants will personally spend more time

                                                                  and energy on-site at your church than any

                                                                  other stewardship organization.
