The Cause+Effect Podcast Dunham Podcast Network

As you seek to grow the support for your organization, do donors know how their generosity is advancing the cause of your ministry? How your ministry is changing lives, advancing Kingdom work, and providing resources for those seeking answers?  

This is where a Case for Support plays a critical role!  

On this episode of the Cause+Effect podcast, Trent is joined by Rick Dunham, Founder and Chairman, and Dan Sumpter, Chief Creative Officer, to discuss the development of this important tool.

Dunham+Company Founder, Rick Dunham, returns to the show to unpack some very revealing research on Christian radio, specifically, listeners who have a favorite station. The study reveals who these ‘P1’ listeners are (those who have a favorite radio station), and why they do (or don’t) support their favorite station. What motivates them to tune in to a station? And further, what motivates their support?  

Rick highlights the major findings and uncovers steps for you to take as a result of this research. Specifically, understand their listening habits, reconsider some of your messaging, and integrate more stories of life-change. 

As a Fellow at the Cultural Research Center and Associate Professor of Humanities at Arizona Christian University, Dr. Adam Rasmussen draws upon his 25 years of experience in Christian education to inspire students to thrive under the Lordship of Christ in all aspects of their lives. With a passion for helping students connect their faith with reason and culture, he guides them to make meaningful and relevant connections that go beyond mere academic study.

The Cultural Research Center's most recent research has considered what type of Christian leader is more likely to hold Biblical views. We are excited to discuss these findings and other important insights from Dr. Rasmussen's research.
