Today, over at InfluenceMagazine.com:

• John Davidson interviews Daniel Im for the Influence Podcast regarding how churches can more effectively train volunteers and leaders.
• We note a new report from Grey Matter Research and Consulting about slipping support for charitable tax deductions: “In recent years, politicians have floated the idea of scaling back or eliminating tax deductions for charitable giving. And while 50 percent of U.S. adults contributing to nonprofits say charitable donations should be fully deductible for itemized filers, 1 in 10 want to eliminate such tax breaks altogether. Another 32 percent say there should be limits (with 17 percent wanting to restrict deductions based on the total amount and 15 percent in favor of limiting deductions based on income). Seven percent are undecided on the issue.”
