Church Growth and Development - Church Staff Resources

 

Strategic Planning Consultations

 

Strategic Planning is a customized process led by an experienced consultant in which a congregation discovers and/or affirms God’s unique vision for it at this point in time. Once the specific steps are identified, the church will be enabled to join God in fulfilling that divinely given vision.

 

Leadership Development

 

Because church leadership is both a spiritual gift and an acquired skill the gift must be recognized and affirmed and the skill developed. Consequently, leadership development is a strategic priority for the Montgomery Baptist Association and targeted assistance is offered.


TEAM BUILDING

Every effective leader devotes significant time to building a strong leadership team. Those include both staff and lay leadership teams.  The MBA staff has training and experience in leading both church staff and lay retreats that focus on building a stronger leadership team. 

 

Natural Church Development

 

The Natural Church Development Process focuses on church health. Research has been done in over 1,000 churches on six continents to determine if there are universal principles that apply to all growing churches regardless of size, denomination or location. His research determined that there are eight key principles of church growth.
