Are you missing a hidden responsibility in your leadership?
As with driving a car, if you don’t pay attention to your blind spots in
leadership, you’ll likely have some accidents. Similarly, if you don’t
address fundraising with your staff you will bypass their personal felt
needs—and you’ll have some accidents.
But we’re not without guidance! The Bible has plenty to say about
fundraising and leadership, and this book explores six biblical leaders
who faced the same fundraising-leadership issues confronting you today.
So fasten your seatbelt!

God has used Scott Morton to motivate, train, coach and influence
countless faith-based, non-profit organizations through his writing,
training and personal ministry. I am one of those leaders. There is no
one better qualified to speak to leadership funding than Scott.
---Lauren Libby, International President/CEO of TransWorld Radio
Blindspots is a biblically-based, must-read for all ministry leaders
engaged in fundraising. Scott Morton provides a wealth of practical
principles, steps, and ideas for leading others through the challenges
of funding a ministry.
---Dave Blomberg, Director of Ministry Partnership, Mission Aviation Fellowship
Once again, Scott Morton has provided a great service to the body of
Christ, especially to ministry leaders. Addressing the challenging and
often fear-filled topic of fundraising, Scott’s new book gives hope and
help to many through his strong biblical and practical approach.
---Betty Barnett, author of Friend Raising: Building A Missionary Support Team That Lasts
Blindspots is definitely going to bless any serious ministry leader.
---Emeka Ohahuru, City Director, The Navigators, Lagos, Nigeria
Many leaders do not know practical steps of how to help their people do
fundraising well. Scott puts feet to admonition, know-how to necessity,
and fun and satisfaction to the process. I often say this is a
“must-read” book. But Blindspots is a “must-do” book. This is much more a
book of action than information. Scott practices what he preaches.
Blindspots has the smell of the fire of battle, not just the musings in
the closet of academia.
---Jerry E. White, PhD., International President Emeritus, The
Navigators, Author of Honesty, Morality and Conscience and To Be a
Friend
