watch / Church Growth
In this video, Darren outlines how to measure growth in numbers, depth and impact.
1. Numbers: What would you say is the average Sunday attendance of your church? How many people do you think attend any other services or groups you run?
2. Depth: What kind of things would you like to see in people growing in faith? What could you count to measure the spiritual depth of your church?
3. Impact: How many people do you engage with in your outreach activities (food bank, night shelter, toddler group etc.)? Are these people engaged and involved in running these programs?
4. Gather your answers above into a list of ‘lag’ numbers. How do you think these numbers have evolved over the past year? What do you hope to see this year?
5. What ‘lead’ numbers could you associate with every ‘lag’ number above? How could you change your ‘lead’ numbers to reach your ideal ‘lag’ numbers?
