Publisher's summary

Every ministry needs capable and reliable volunteers, but so often it feels like no one is coming forward to fill your church's needs. In reality, the people around us do want to volunteer their time and talents, but we often fail to connect potential volunteers to ministry opportunities or lose them somewhere along the way.

The Volunteer Effect is your start-to-finish guide to recruiting, leading, and retaining volunteers for your ministry. Based on solid management theory delivered in an engaging narrative form, this book shows you how to recruit people to a mission, not just a role; create low-risk entry points; build a team that evokes pride; train them for the bigger picture; and much more.

Your most effective volunteers are already in your church! Let this resource show you how to find - and keep - them.

Take notes!

Thank you to everyone who contributed to this book. I can’t wait to apply the wisdom and insight shared. I couldn’t help highlighting so much of this book. I also took so many practical and applicable notes. It’s worth every minute of your time. God is going to do great things through our volunteers lives and the environment they are apart of.

Incredibly practical.

Thankful for the principles taught in this book and love the direct everyday application for leading volunteers. I’ll be buying each person on my team a copy and we will definitely do a deep dive on this one.

Bad narration

this may be a good book and I kept going back to give another try but the narrator is so dry it's just hard.
