Research conducted by Barna Group validates the need for new approaches for encouraging spiritual growth and measuring success.
"Common success measures such as church attendance and program completion showed little correlation with transformational progress. The new metrics being tested relate primarily to spiritual fruit evidenced through character change, lifestyle shifts, attitudinal transitions, and spiritual process and commitments." - Barna.org
Church Leaders
"Your scorecard for your congregation or ministry should reflect your own vision and values. It needs to support what you are trying to accomplish and how you are going about getting it done. Developing the right scorecard will help establish the accountability that will turn your dreams into reality. It will also give you opportunities to celebrate progress made on your journey into the missional renaissance. A better world will be the ultimate result of your efforts."
— Reggie McNeal. Missional Renaissance: Changing the Scorecard for the Church
A New Scorecard
