After spending the past three years working for an online and mobile giving provider, I am obviously a believer in the power of technology to increase giving to the Church.

It was December 1961, the Christmas season. Margaret Henderson and I would be married five months later and then spend 52 years together serving the Lord. We had no idea all the Lord had in store for us, of course. The one thing we knew and wanted with all our hearts was that God was leading us and would use us.
