Measurements are important. Numbers tell us where we have been and where we might be headed. Thom and Kevin take this episode to discuss 7 important metrics that should be included on a church revitalization scorecard. 

The 7 church revitalization scorecard metrics:

    New Christians


    Total giving more than weekly per capita giving


    First-time guests


    Second-time guests


    Community ministry involvement


    Worship attendance


    Prayer involvement

 

Other highlights:

– What is celebrated gets replicated.

– Sometimes we de-emphasize the measures which aren’t going well.

– Churches must face the brutal facts in order to know where they are going.

– We need to measure what really matters in the church.

– Numbers are our friends. Numbers can indicate our current status, where we have been, and where we might go.

Revitalize & Replant is sponsored by the North American Mission Board and ChurchReplanters.com. More than 10% of churches in North America are at risk of closing and the North American Mission Board is committed to reversing this trend by decreasing the death rate of existing churches while simultaneously increasing the birth rate of new churches.
