Ever felt overwhelmed, thinking “I should share stories with donors…but I don’t even know where to start,”?

You already know how powerful stories are—especially when you see God transforming lives through your ministry. Those stories lift you, encourage you, and remind you exactly why you do what you do.

But when it’s time to share those stories with donors and supporters?

Suddenly it feels hard.

Maybe you don’t know which stories to tell… or how to tell them well… or you feel like all your stories sound the same.

The good news? You can tell powerful stories—even if you don’t consider yourself a storyteller. In today’s episode, I’m breaking down a simple 4-step framework to help you find the right story, tell it clearly, and share it in a way that engages donors and highlights the work God is doing through your ministry.

What You’ll Learn

• The essential first step that makes any story instantly more compelling
• Why emotional clarity—not creativity—is what truly connects your donor to the story
• A simple structure you can follow to share stories confidently in emails, donor updates, social posts, or on stage
