do you have a calling? are you confident in your purpose?
So many times all of us can check those boxes and more, but what about this box? Do you have a recurring funding structure that will sustain the ministry long term?
Most of us understand that we must make sacrifices, that we must be good stewards, and that ministry is not a vehicle to land you on any Forbes list! But, financial security is bigger than that. It can impact the health of your family and marriage. It can be a sustainer or detractor of hope, joy and passion in ministry. In fact, it ultimately can be the difference between throwing in the towel or growing what you’ve already begun.

Through a series of miracles the prison doors opened for him after 8 years. Myron received his B.A.. in Biblical Studies and Business Leadership at Grace University. He is currently working towards finishing his M.A.. in global leadership from Crown College.
Myron has authored several books, of which his latest book Digital Ministry has become a number one best seller on Amazon. Myron has launched a host of churches, organizations, and businesses.
