Testimonials

“So thankful and refreshed from the training that Andrew Knight provided in biblical fundraising. His perspective, coaching and workshops were transformative in impaciting my ability to move forward in inviting supporters to partner with me in Kingdom advancement in a way that is clear and compelling. I regret previous years of my ministry where I avoided my support needs by procrastinating the task, over-spiritualizing the endeavor, or operating in shame, fear or incompetency. Andrew helped equip me to view the mission as more than support raising but as supporter raising. His leadership grew in me a vision of God getting the glory as faithful missionaries and generous people partner together for gospel fruit. God's provision for our ministry surpassed what I thought was possible, and I am so excited about what the newly raised resources will mean for health, longevity and ministry effectiveness. Andrew's training and practicality was a chief instrument in that result."

During the first session at the COstart Seminar, Andrew Knight made clear that this support raising season would be a time that the Lord would most importantly do a work in us, and that He did. Through the COstart and the COhort that I was a part of, I went from seeing support raising as a burden to experiencing it as a joy! I grew not only in my understanding of biblical support raising and how to do it strategically, but how joyful it is to invite people to find their role in the great commission!

Coming on staff was a pretty daunting step in faith for me for quite a few reasons, one of the biggest being support raising. My experience with COstart helped to not only address my fears coming in, but also to apply biblical reasoning that completely shifted my thinking. Through the insightful guidance of our trainer, Andrew Knight, we were shown the many ways in which support raising is biblical, practical, and helpful. I cannot say enough what an impact the training had on me and my mindset entering into the season of support raising. I’m so thankful I could be there!

I asked myself, "How much do I really need this?" But I knew then what I know now, you couldn't pay me a thousand dollars not to go to this training. I left training with greater knowledge of the scriptures, a deep desire to be supported, and feeling equipped and empowered to raise a team. As I put together the support team, all of my training materials were a constant reference, and they were catalytic in making the process efficient and straightforward. This is worth every cent!
