TRUTHS & MYTHS ABOUT SUPPORT RAISING

Truth #1

TRUTH #1: God sends you, and God provides for You.

As stated in I Thessalonians 5:24, “Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass.” God sends individuals into the world with a purpose—to effect significant change (Matthew 9:37-38, Romans 10:14-15). His mission involves bringing hope and redemption to a broken world (Matthew 9:36; Romans 3:23, 6:23, Matthew 11:28-30, John 3:19b, John 11:25-26). When God calls you to go on a mission, He ensures your needs are met because His resources are boundless (Psalm 50:10-12) and His provision is abundant (Ephesians 3:20). Providing for your necessities, especially financial ones, is an inherent part of God’s character (Philippians 4:19, Genesis 22:14) and is particularly evident when you are serving on His mission.

Myth #1

MYTH #1: Support-raising is like asking for handouts and begging for money.

Think of it this way: when you see a billboard encouraging you to buy a Big Mac, you don’t consider it begging for money. Similarly, when inviting God’s people to invest in something as extraordinary as spreading the Gospel, it’s not begging but an opportunity to be part of the greatest cause ever known. If some choose not to contribute, there will always be others eager to seize that chance. In fact, you are inviting them to step into a great faith adventure of participating in the Great Commission and trusting God to provide. Their faith will grow, and this will be good for them and for you!

Truth #2

TRUTH #2: God provides for His ambassadors through His people.

2 Corinthians 5:20 emphasizes that “we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, ‘Be reconciled to God.'” When you embark on a mission, you represent not just yourself but God, His Gospel, and all of His people to those you encounter.

It is crucial to understand that God’s people are genuinely eager to invest in Missions. Many individuals work diligently for 40-60 hours per week, allocating a significant portion of their earnings to support their families. However, they also possess a deep desire to impact the world positively. Consequently, they actively seek ways to support God’s work in various capacities. In fact, God commands His people to contribute to His mission, whether it be supporting the church, ministers, or missionaries, all of which help spread the Gospel and aid those in need. God delights in working through His people to provide for His noble causes.

Myth #2

MYTH #2: I won't get paid while I raise support.

We're happy to say that this simply isn't true. At DCPI, from the time you have money in your support account, you will be able to draw a paycheck. We expect all of our missionaries to reach 100% support before they step into their official DCPI job. This means that the entirety of your job, for the first few months, will be raising support. You will get paid during this time. And, after you have reached 100%, you will continue getting paid. We will even give you 10% of your time to maintain your supporter relationships.

Truth #3

TRUTH #3: I can do this in 100 days.

We encourage all of our DCPI missionaries to take a prayer retreat, attend support-raising bootcamp, read The God Ask, and lay out a plan to meet with and raise 100% of their support in 100 days. Even missionaries who have had very high support targets, based on their housing and insurance expenses, have been able to raise 100% of their support in 2-3 months. Our goal is to walk you through the process from start to finish, so that you can confidently trust God and walk through your support-raising season with faith and victory!

Myth #3

MYTH #3: God doesn’t know who will support me.

Although it might sound absurd, the reality is that God already has a team of prayer and financial supporters lined up for you, even months before you embark on your journey. Your role is to pray and seek out those individuals, and you will undoubtedly be amazed at how God provides when you find them. We believe a more accurate way to understand support-raising is actually supporter-raising or "friend-raising," because this is more about the relationships than the money.

Truth #4

TRUTH #4: My paycheck will cover my expenses.

At DCPI, we take into consideration your needs for insurance, housing, travel expenses, ministry expenses, and even support-raising expenses, and we calculate your support target based on all these factors. This means that the amount you raise for your support will be different from nearly everyone else's, and it is designed to ensure that you will have what you need to stay in ministry for the long-run. Our goal is to set you up to be able to continue working and living in a healthy environment, as you would in any other career. So, when you consider raising support, know that you will not be leaving your family destitute. You will be making a reasonable paycheck, including the expenses you need to continue doing this ministry.

Myth #4

MYTH #4: Support-raising works great for short-term trips, but I could never do this for my salary.

While it’s true that support-raising is very effective for short-term missions, there are many missionaries who choose support-raised careers on purpose. The spiritual and relational benefits of having men and women on your team, praying for you, encouraging you, and fully-committed to your ministry are immeasurable. And, if you ask most support-raised missionaries, they will tell you that, though they don't know how, they have never been without. God supplies all your needs, and a support-raised missionary salary doesn't mean you will go without provision.

The DCPI team is full of people like you who sought the Lord, heard Him lead, took a huge step of faith, and watched God provide for them every step of the way. This can be your story, too.
