Consulting
We desire for churches to grow, mature and multiply. There are times in the life and season of a church where leaders need a deeper facilitation to once again live into the vision that God has uniquely given. We offer several consulting options for churches and leaders to select from, from short one day consultation, to long term consulting projects.
Here is a brief overview and example of what we address in helping churches to grow, mature, and multiply.
- The church must have a compelling picture that depicts what could be, and what should be, in the future church. Vision addresses the question, “Where are we going?” This is the air war of the church.
- Steps 2 & 3 are the ground war. Visionary planning deals with the question “Where are we going?”, missional planning addresses the question “What will we do while we are on the way?” Simply put, the vision is all about what is to be. The mission is about what is to be done to bring the vision to reality. Mission must be action-oriented, unique to the church it relates to, and have a completion point.
- Strategies will address the questions, “How will we do it? How will we accomplish the mission?” It’s not enough to know where we are going and what we will do on the way. The church must have a collective concept of how those things will get done. So, strategies are about how the mission is to be carried out.
- Tactical planning is the dimension in which the "doers" in a church typically become most engaged. Tactical planning is actually less about planning and more about execution. After all, all the planning in the world will go nowhere if it is not carried out with effectiveness and efficiency. Tactical planning addresses two basic questions: “When will it get done?” and “Who will do what needs to be done?”
