Larry O'Nan is a seasoned mentor and coach with over 40 years of experience guiding ministry leaders, Christian organizations, and individuals in over 30 countries towards thriving in the principles of life-style stewardship. Larry graduated from the University of Colorado with a BS in English from the School of Education. Rather than pursue teaching, Larry followed his calling into full-time ministry, utilizing his strengths in leadership, writing, and management. After two decades in ministry leadership, Larry transitioned to consulting, guiding Christian ministries and mentoring leaders in stewardship and fund development. In 1972, Larry launched the first comprehensive fund development initiative for Cru, where contributors became ministry partners investing God's resources in kingdom work. This initiative grew over 14 years, serving as a model for other ministries and generating millions of dollars through generous giving. Larry's study on stewardship in 1978 transformed fundraising within the ministry through the integration of biblical stewardship teachings into fund generation. His theology of generosity impacted countless partners and laid the foundation for a billion-dollar funding initiative. From 1986 to 2013, Larry expanded his reach, providing guidance to multiple Christian ministries and coaching leaders in integrating stewardship teaching with proven fund development practices. Today, he offers advisory services to select non-profits, specializing in partner development, fund management, funding initiatives, and non-profit governance. Larry currently resides in Highland, CA.
