Diagnostic AssesSmentS

First and foremost, the diagnostic assessment provides invaluable insight into the life of the church. Our survey provides a framework by which church leadership can make better-informed decisions, help ongoing organizational learning, and address revealed “blind spots.” It will help to encourage prayer, enhance strategic thinking, and improve dialogue about vision, values, and core ministries.

  • The Church Vitality Survey is a 30-question survey with some of our most insightful questions. A congregation’s answers to these questions will provide specific data points for strategic planning purposes and for increasing a church’s spiritual vitality.

  • The Focused Church Assesment dives deeper into the data measured in a Tier 1 church assessment and gives a deeper understanding of the current reality in a church.

  • The Comprehensive Church Assessment enhances the analysis more by comparing community and church data, incorporating individual listening sessions, and having the VitalChurch Diagnostic Team present an in-person report to your church.

Intentional interim pastors

At the core of a revitalized church is intimacy with Christ. Our Intentional Interim Pastors help a church pursue that intimacy in an authentic way. The natural outcome is the congregation begins to actively engage their communities with the gospel message, because what people cherish and value they will want to commend to others (Psalm 67: 1-3).

During their time in a church, our experienced interim pastors also look to resolve any areas of conflict. They take the time to discover the real issues within the church (not just the presenting issues), and they facilitate reconciliation among congregation members and leadership when needed.

The reason I left you in Crete was to straighten out what was left unfinished and appoint elders in every town, as I directed you.
