Book Synopsis Church and Ministry Strategic Planning by : William Winston
Download or read book Church and Ministry Strategic Planning written by William Winston and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spiritual management is required for spiritual organization, and yet a ministry’s master plan should be the Master’s plan for that ministry. Church and Ministry Strategic Planning assists readers in developing a Biblically based blueprint for carrying out the many activities in which the church or ministry is involved. The authors show clearly how careful planning is inspired by the Scriptures (“Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to complete it?”--Luke 14:28) and how it improves making decisions today which ultimately affect the ministry’s effectiveness tomorrow. Church and Ministry Strategic Planning covers all areas of this type of planning and can be read and reviewed quickly. Through the use of a model of the strategic planning process, the authors show how to develop mission statements, define strategic objectives, develop strategy options and operating strategies, appraise performance, and monitor strategic planning. Readers are led step-by-step through these key areas of creating a strategic plan. Examples and worksheets at the end of each chapter enable pastors, administrators, and lay leaders to develop a strategic plan fitting to their specific ministry or church. The appendixes provide tools used in planning as well as a complete sample strategic plan for a large church. Put these concepts to immediate use in decisionmaking and pursue God’s purpose and vision for the church or ministry. If readers take the time and effort to study this book, apply its format, and prayerfully keep God in every step of the plan, here is what the authors believe plan administrators can expect: 1. A sense of enthusiasm in the church or ministry 2. A 5-year plan in writing to which everyone is committed 3. A sense of commitment by the entire church to its overall direction 4. Time for the leaders to do what they have been called to do 5. Clear job duties and responsibilities 6. Clear and evident improvement in the health and vitality of every member of the church staff 7. Measurable improvement in the personal lives of all those in responsible positions with time for vacations, family, and personal pursuits 8.The ability to measure very specifically, the growth and contribution made by senior pastors or evangelists at the close of their careers 9. Guaranteed leadership of the church or ministry because a plan is in place--in writing--and is understood. Even more importantly, a management team and philosophy will be in place to guide the church or ministry into its next era of growth Explore this Biblical perspective on planning and develop a strategic plan that is systematic and continuous and allows the church or ministry to assess its market position, establish goals, objectives, priorities, and strategies to be completed within specified time periods, achieve greater staff and member commitment and teamwork aimed at meeting challenges and solving problems, and muster its resources to meet these changes through anticipation.

Book excerpt: Acclaimed church leader, blogger, founder and chief strategic officer of The Unstuck Group, Tony Morgan unpacks the lifecycle of a typical church, identifies characteristics of each phase, and provides practical next steps a church can take to move towards sustained health. Think about your church for a moment. Is it growing? Is it diminishing? Is it somewhere in between? Acclaimed church leader, blogger, and founder and chief strategic officer of The Unstuck Group, Tony Morgan has identified the seven stages of a church's lifecycle that range from the hopeful and optimistic days of launch, to the stagnating last stages of life support. Regardless of the stage in which you find your church, it carries with it the world's greatest mission—to "go and make disciples of all the nations . . ." With eternity at stake the Church should be doing most everything within its power to see lives changed forever. The Church should strive for the pinnacle of the lifecycle, where they are continually making new disciples and experiencing what Morgan refers to as "sustained health." In The Unstuck Church, Morgan unpacks each phase of the church lifecycle, and offers specific and strategic next steps the church leader can take to find it's way to sustained health . . . and finally become unstuck. The Unstuck Church is a call for honest an assessment of where your church sits on the lifecycle, and a challenge to move beyond it.

The book version is for those who do not want to have to print, hole punch, collate and purchase binders for many copies. Every church knows it is supposed to make disciples of Jesus, the challenge is knowing how to accomplish that goal. Jesus only had three years to turn a group of skeptics into significant kingdom influencers, so he had to use his time intentionally and strategically. What if churches took the same mindset of equipping everyone that walks through their door in such a way that they are ready to be sent out within a few years to impact the world? Strategic Discipleship provides a four-year small group curriculum to help your people work through key issues in their discipleship journey.

Download or read book Where Do We Go from Here? written by Leo Endel and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-07 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, my friend Leo Endel has been helping churches to plan well. Now, through Where Do We Go from Here? you can benefit from his years of wisdom and experience! Walk through this book with your team, and you and your church will be better for it! -Ed Stetzer, Wheaton CollegeDoes your church know where it needs to be a few years down the road? Does it have a plan to get there? Is it headed in the right direction? Most would have to answer "no" to at least one of those questions, if not all three. In his brief (66-page) book, "Where Do We Go from Here?" Leo Endel draws from his decades of experience as a pastor and denominational leader to offer a simple yet comprehensive guide for strategic planning in the smaller church. These are not theories waiting to be tested, but a proven plan that can be used by any church willing to seek God's best for their congregation and community. -David Williams, Associational Missions Strategist, Trinity River Baptist Association, Liberty, TexasI found "Where Do We Go from Here?" to be both timely and timeless. Once I read it, I immediately recommended it to one of our pastors. It is timeless because it is principle and process based. Its value is enhanced because it has been tried and tested in multiple contexts. Too much is published today that is theoretical, unproven, or reflective of a single church's experience. And because it lays out a simple template for strategic planning it can be easily transferred into almost any church setting. -Mark Elliott, Director of Missions, Heartland Baptist Network, Omaha, NebraskaFor 37 years of pastoral experience I have tried many strategies to do the work of the church. Only to find myself overworked and understaffed. In his book, Where Do We Go from Here? Brother Leo gives us a simple yet comprehensive strategic plan for both small or large church. Where do we go from here! It is a question that every pastor or leader has had to ponder over in their heart. Leo writes out of the heart and experiences of a seasoned pastor and godly leader. He writes, "The real power of the church is God releasing his presence, his power and his plan in US for that to happen we must pray." I prayerfully recommend this comprehensive guide for strategic planning for any church. Roy Hopgood Jr. Mount Horeb Baptist Church Milwaukee, Wisconsin Senior pastor.I just finished reading, Where Do We Go from Here? It is terrific, inspirational, personal, and practical. I hope hundreds of pastors and churches read it and use it! Dr. Bill Tinsley, retired denominational leader, church planter, author of nine books and of Reflections, a weekly faith column with over 145,000 views worldwide.
