When starting their own business wasn’t the path, God led Jeff to Barnhart, where over 30 years he has built GROVE, the company’s collaborative giving team, and a mutual fund approach to ministry.In this episode, Jeff shares how to give collaboratively, build trust through long-term relationships, and create true partnerships. He dives into organizing giving around focused teams, leveraging business wisdom to advance God’s work, investing in ministry capacity and health, balancing results with Spirit-led discernment, and learning to surrender control in stewardship.If you want your leadership, stewardship, and generosity to leave a lasting mark, this episode will inspire, challenge, and equip you to think bigger about impact.🎧 Listen now to Multiplying Impact Through Strategic Collaborative Giving on The Finish Line Podcast.
