Church strategic planning, practical tools, and guided support to help your faith community discern and take its next faithful step.
Ministry can be exhausting and challenging. Leading change in ministry can be even harder. Our approach to church strategic planning starts with the strengths already in place within your ministry. We help you build from a hopeful awareness of your church’s gifts, strengths, and context—not simply from a list of problems to solve.
Through our services and resources, we’ll walk alongside your faith community to help you identify and act on what God is calling you to do next.
Our Ministry Transformation Lab guides you and a team within your faith community to get outside your building and listen deeply to the people in your context. We’ll help you uncover your community’s strengths and assets, identify needs and challenges, and consider how God is calling your faith community to respond.
From there, we’ll guide you through our Theological Innovation Process to develop, test, and launch a new way of being in ministry that meets the needs of your community.

Our customized consulting begins with extensive listening. You’ll tell us about your faith community’s strengths and challenges, your dreams, and all the ways that God is already at work in your community. Then we’ll create a personalized proposal that details how we can partner together to uncover the next faithful steps in your ministry.
Our tools can help your faith community re-define ministry success, better understand the needs and assets present in your community, and examine your church’s culture to build a healthier environment. Our trained facilitators will guide your faith community through group discussions and activities to help you identify your next faithful steps.

We can partner with you to identify high-quality candidates for your open positions in youth, children’s, family, and college ministry. We’ll learn about your faith community’s history, values, and culture, so we can identify the best candidates for your unique context.
