CONGREGATION ASSESSMENT & DISCERNMENT Make evidence-based decisions, leading to a healthier, more vital faith community. It's difficult at times to know what is best for your faith community. Or how to prioritize your energy and time. A data-driven discernment process based on the Congregation Assessment Tool uncovers what's beneath the surface, revealing insights that are not easily obtained by observation. This approach leads to better decisions, as well as suggesting areas of congregational life that may need to be addressed. Leadership Transitions Strategic Planning Internal Conflicts I was so impressed (once again) with your insightfulness, your clarity, and your ability to communicate it all to us in a way that lit a fire under us all without singeing me (as pastor) or the congregation (council). I am very hopeful about this as a springboard to the work we need and hope to do in the coming months. SENIOR PASTOR 31
