Every session has been powerful as she strategically walks me through the developmental process and now I see things through a different lens.”

YOUR MINISTRY ALREADY HAS A STORY.

The problem is knowing how to tell it.

When most ministry leaders think about storytelling, they think about sharing an impact story or telling a powerful testimony.

But storytelling can do something much bigger for your fundraising.

We can use story to structure your entire fundraising message.

There are proven elements that make a story compelling: a problem that needs to be solved, someone affected by it, a clear path forward, and a meaningful role to play.

We’ll use that structure to clarify the message behind your fundraising—so you’re no longer trying to figure out what to say every time you write a newsletter, sit down with a potential donor, update your website, or make an ask.

You’ll have a core story to come back to again and again.

ABOUT your coach

hi FRIEND! I’m LISA

I love Jesus, grew up as a missionary kid, and have spent my entire life around ministry and the beautiful work God is doing in people’s lives.

Over the years, I’ve worked with ministries that deeply love their calling—but still struggle to connect with supporters. I’ve seen the stigma around raising support, the pressure to “keep up” on every platform, and the exhausting trial-and-error that never quite leads to results… often ending in burnout.

Everything changed when I discovered the power of story.

The first time I used a clear, story-driven message, donors responded so quickly and generously that our team wasn’t even prepared for the amount of support that poured in. It was unlike anything we’d ever experienced.

And your ministry can have that same type of breakthrough! 

Let’s do this together!

xo, Lisa

  • What can we realistically accomplish in one hour?

    A lot more than you think.

    We won’t try to overhaul every piece of your fundraising in 60 minutes. We’ll focus on the message that matters most right now.

    Maybe you’re preparing for a donor conversation. Maybe your presentation feels scattered. Maybe your website doesn’t explain the need clearly. Maybe you keep staring at your newsletter wondering what you’re supposed to say.

    We’ll take that real message and work through it together using a proven storytelling structure. You’ll leave knowing what needs to change, how to structure it, and what to say next.

  • Do you offer refunds?

    Because this is a live, personalized coaching session where I audit your real donor messaging and provide tailored recommendations, all bookings are non-refundable.

    If you need to reschedule, just reach out — I’m happy to help you find a new time.

  • How soon will I begin to see results?

    Ministry leaders often see immediate clarity and improvement in their messaging — sometimes even within the session itself.

    Results with donors vary, but when you apply the clarity shifts we identify together, you can expect: stronger donor understanding, increased engagement, more meaningful responses, and greater confidence in what you say and write

    One leader I coached told me that in his very next conversation, listeners were leaning in and nodding in agreement after just his first sentence.

  • What if I don’t have anything “ready”?

    That’s okay.

    Bring whatever you have — a rough draft, an email you never sent, a website page you don’t love, or even just the idea of what you want to say. We can work with any level of clarity or messiness.

  • Will you rewrite things for me?

    In this session, I won’t rewrite your full message, but I will help you shape and refine it. You’ll get specific language suggestions, simplified structure, and clear guidance you can use to finalize your message with confidence.

  • Is this coaching faith-based?

    Yes.

    Everything I teach is grounded in a God-centered, story-driven approach to communication. You’ll never be pushed into salesy tactics or pressure-based messaging.

  • What happens after the session?

    You’ll receive a clear plan outlining what to update
    and how to strengthen your donor messaging moving forward.
