Your First 120 Days In Church Revitalization And Renewal (Church Revitalization Leadership Library)

by Tom Cheyney

Write down these questions and write down your answers in a tiny journal you can keep with you every day. What are the things that frighten you about revitalizing a church? What is it that you desire to get out of this opportunity to revitalize a church? How will this effort towards revitalization help you in becoming a better pastor for the Lord? Do you see areas in your ministry that need to be strengthened as the result of these last 120 days? Are there gaps in your church revitalization team that need to be filled in the future? Can your Church Revitalization Team learn its way towards revitalization and if so, how are you going to provide such opportunities for learning? Will you invest your time and friendship in these members and their families being all in for the task? Are there some key reasons the church has declined and what are you going to do about it? Would a group like Renovate help you by serving as your coach and mentor? What are the critical issues that keep the church from growing? Would a Discovery Retreat with my leaders help move us forward and unify us together? Are there any men in the church I ought to do the meeting before the meeting with? Who are the individuals I could hand off a task or ministry program and know that it will be accomplished? If you could do something immediately, what are the three most important changes you would make? Will I enjoy the ride of revitalizing a declining church?
