Assessing Church Health and Impact



Since leaving the staff of a church in 1989 to open a Christ centered Clinical Counseling and in-patient center I have had the opportunity to visit and minister in a lot of different churches. One of my ministries has been and continues to be Mentoring and supporting Christians in formal and informal ministries.

I have seen a lot of different churches here in the USA and around the world. As a result I have developed ideas about the effectiveness of leaders, various church structures, and theological approaches.

Assessing Effectiveness on a 1-10 Scale:
Orthodox Theology:
A Focus on Growth and Healing
Good Preaching and Teaching
Scripture: Truth
Relationships: Fruit
Gifts of the Spirit
Practical Life
Ministry to Children and Youth
Ministry to Couples and Families
Equipping Members to Serve
Worship Quality and Variety
Outreach to Non-Believers
Compassionate Outreach
Variety of Ways to Enter Church Activities
A Good Reputation in the Wider Community

There are possibly more.

What do you want to add to the list?

What do you think is quality?
