The (sigh) electronic age is both wonderful and potentially miserable. We love airplanes and travel, but when one goes down…! Electronic payment systems are wonderful, but when there is a glitch, it is so painful! In the last month we have seen the card processor giant Vantiv (which serves our Fiserv clients) push some untested […]
Responding to Concerns About Electronic Tithing
While eGiving provides electronic giving and online giving tools for both churches and Christian parachurch organizations, we realize that some unique hang-ups and benefits apply to churches getting started with our program. While we offer each of our clients individualized training, guidance, and support, many church leaders will find the following categories of concerns relevant […]
Achieving Local Church Goals with eMinistry
For local churches, the concept of eMinistry — online extensions of a Christian ministry — can be intimidating, and understandably so: Often, this kind of web-based relationship-building enterprise is being championed by parachurch organizations rather than local churches. Without regular memberships or meeting times, these Christian groups tend to rely on such venues for greater […]
Is It Really Better To Give Than To Receive?
Sometimes, ministries get desperate — or even dishonest or self-focused. The books look bad, the bills aren’t getting paid, and what was once a passion for the Kingdom of Christ has been replaced with floundering attempts to simply make ends meet. The flesh can be amazingly deceptive, but when your giving team is pulling back […]
Three Reasons to Consider eGiving
A giver is inspired by God’s anointing to further His Kingdom and desires to be part of it. eGiving is the heart of the giver looking to enhance giving for God’s anointing through electronic payment tools.

A giving heart may well be one of those things, but like many spiritual disciplines, it is caught by those whose lives are being transformed by the Holy Spirit. As a ministry to Christian churches and parachurch ministries, eGiving provides the technological tools, as […]
Expanded Suite of Financial Processing Services from eGiving
While in Dallas for the recent Heartbeat International convention, we met with our new financial processing partners, Paperless, for a final face-to-face meeting, after working for six months to integrate the mission of eGiving with their tools. Paperless has a strong eCommerce background which will help some of our larger ministries. Many organizations start with […]
Back from Heartbeat International Convention 2013
The eGiving team returned from the Heartbeat International convention in Dallas last week. It is wonderful to see the harmony with Catholics and Protestants working together to save lives and change hearts in a world where life and God’s plan for His creation are absent through both ignorance and design. It is wonderful to see […]
If I Were the Devil – by Paul Harvey
Dear Clients and Friends, Recently I found this 2 minute radio spot by Paul Harvey… from 1965! You can hear the voice of wisdom as this Watchman warned America. Please share as you will! George
Accommodating Your Church Members with eGiving
We are all learning to connect more with each other and organizations in web-based ways. eGiving is a component of the electronic relationship (as well as relationships in general, of course!). As giving follows the prompting of the Holy Spirit, your web interfaces should minister, teach and inform exactly like what you do in “real […]
