Swint Joins TCP as Resource Development Partner
Ruben
Swint, a stewardship and fundraising specialist for 23 years, has been named a
partner with The Columbia Partnership.
Swint
will manage the capital fundraising arm of TCP and inaugurate an emphasis on
generosity as a part of spiritual and stewardship development.
Since
2001 Swint has been a senior strategist with Generis, helping churches to raise
capital funds.
"I
want to help Christians realize that God is not only generous, God is
extravagant," Swint said. "Christ is the supreme example of God's generosity.
Being created in the image of God, each person inherits a spiritual gene that
leans them toward generosity. This new resource development ministry will
enable Christians to be as generous as they have always wanted to be."
