Remember the Future: Financial Leadership and Asset Management for Congregations, Paperback/Gerald W. Keucher

Remember the Future is a result of years of hands-on consulting work with struggling congregations by Jerry Keucher, controller of the Diocese of New York. Keucher notes that many, if not most, congregations in mainline churches have declined in the past forty years and that this shrinkage in numbers has deeply affected the psyches of congregational leaders. Using a positive tone and attitude to help congregations imagine health instead of decline, Keucher offers clear, step-by-step methods and advice on analyzing and managing all aspects of congregational assets.
