Funding the Great Commission
- "People give to worthwhile programs rather than to needy institutions. The cause must catch the eye, warm the heart and stir the mind." — Harold J. Seymour, philanthropist
- "To give away money is an easy matter and in any man's power. But to decide to whom to give it, and how large, and when, and for what purpose and how, is neither in every man's power nor an easy matter." — Aristotle, Greek philosopher
- "No reserve, no retreat, no regret." — William Whiting Borden, millionaire Yale missionary
- "Statistically speaking, giving in the church today is embarrassing at best. So, there needs to be a message, a movement that addresses the problem in this very prosperous nation that reminds us and reinforces the fact that God has blessed this nation and blessed us as a people for a reason, not to buy the next new car or a bigger house. God has blessed the United States of America so that we will purpose to reach out to others and in doing so accomplishing His Will, doing His work, and then He is glorified." — Bob Coy, Florida pastor
- "Successful philanthropy depends upon the art of human motivation from apathy, to caring, to sharing, to investing." — Arthur C. Frantzreb, American fundraising consultant
- "Americans are especially vulnerable to an appeal that says, 'Give us your dollars, but not your sons and daughters.' If we do that, missionary vision will die within a generation, and the dollars will also eventually stop." — Roger Hedlund, author
- "I will place no value on anything I have or possess except in relation to the Kingdom of Christ. If anything I have will advance that Kingdom, it shall be given or kept whichever will best promote the glory of Him to Whom I owe all my hopes, both for time and eternity." — David Livingstone, Scottish missionary and explorer of Africa
- "God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply." — J. Hudson Taylor, English missionary to China
- "I believe with all of my heart that God's people possess God's provision to accomplish and fulfill God's purposes in the world." — Joel Vestal, founder of ServLife International
