Every church, whether spoken or implied, has goals to grow numerically and spiritual and get more people engaged in activities and giving. But fewer churches have any idea of how to start achieving these goals.
Better than 20/20 visibility of ministry effectiveness is possible. However, there’s a limit to how much you can track with just your eyes. And even what you see can fool you.
Knowing how things are really going and where new initiatives are needed is dependent on more than impressive driven or anecdotal insight.
Evidence-based discernment provided through a congregation-wide assessment tool is the best step toward 20/20 visibility.
Mustard Seed Consulting offers your church proven steps for growth, resolution of conflict and guess-free decision-making. Contact us today to achieve 20/20 in 2019.
