Moving Toward Church Health
At yesterday's business meeting we took a huge step toward church health. The congregation approved the elder's recommendation to form elder led focus groups. From these focus groups we intend to find the pulse of the church and the underlying ministry philosophy of our community.
As we progress over the next three months the elders will tabulate the results and then present the vision, purpose and ministry philosophy to the congregation for approval. This will be a wonderful time of leaning on God.
The elder's are going to be asking a wide range of questions. Here are some examples:
1. Who is the Sunday service primarily geared toward - believers or unbelievers?
2. What is the best way to reach our community?
3. Should we focus on ministry inside our building or outside?
4. What is the role of an elder? pastor? deacon?
5. How should we use technology?
6. What does it mean to be innovative?
Trusting God for healthy unity around the gospel.
