“A diagnostic evaluation of your church’s Great Commission efforts and ministry message”
Is our church’s mission and message clear? Do people know who we are? Why do first-time visitors not come back? How do we reach more people in our community? Young adults, families, senior citizens, and others? Who is God calling us to be? Missional? Traditional?
There are many challenging questions facing the local church today. We can help you determine if your church is on target with its mission and the message it is communicating to the community you serve.

Want to influence others?
Many people think leadership is all about getting others to do things for them. That's a low view of how God sees His leaders. In fact, the Bible says if you want to operate on a whole new level of influencing others, serve and don't expect anything in return.
Most people go through life making deals. "If you do this for me, I'll do this for you." You work, you get a paycheck. You help me, I'll help you. Here's my prescription: Give without the motivation of receiving. Love the unlovable. Look at how Jesus influenced others through His servanthood. You can only do that by letting go and letting God work through you.
"Jesus...called the twelve disciples to him and said to them, ‘Whoever wants to be first must place himself last of all and be the servant of all.'"
Mark 9:35 (TEV)
