Ministry Toolbox

So how does one measure how well you are doing in ministry?


Here are three suggestions (HT to Dan Rutherford)


I. Counting: Are we growing?

Look at the stats. Attendance, offering, compare from week to week; year to year. Trends. What are the challenges?

Baptisms: Transfers. Stories.


II. Contacts: Who are we growing?

The type of contact: Face to face. Others: And be creative.


III. Concentration. What are you doing to grow?

Ask the tough questions:

1. what is God teaching you right now?

II. what are you reading?

Other suggestions?
