It was largely built on the name of our Pastor Only “certain people” reached the lost Only “certain people” made disciples Only “certain people” were discipled The majority of Church ministry was done only
at the Church building We expected people to come and check us out
Our Old Model of Church

Led to the burn out of people (80/20) The majority of people never completed the work of
the ministry. It left cracks - people may or may not experience
spiritual growth. People took on an “us vs. them” mentality when it
came to ministry. Pastors were overburdened and pressured because
they carried too much weight. Church survival was highly contingent upon the
Pastor.
Our Old Model Was Flawed

The responsibility to evangelize and make
disciples will be placed on the 80% (Members). The 20%(Ministry Officers) will equip and encourage the Members.
The majority of the work of the ministry will be done by members in their own neighborhoods and communities.
Everyone will be discipled while discipling others
What The New Model Will Look Like

We will always be growing because we will always be
evangelizing. Everyone who is an active member of our church
should experience spiritual growth. The work load of ministry will be spread more evenly
among the congregation and improve the overall quality of life for our members.
No one will fall between the cracks because everyone will be accounted and cared for.
Our Pastor and staff will no longer be overstretched and can focus on fewer higher impact activities.

We will become a church of small groups
(everyone will have a 12 and be in a 12). Everyone will have the opportunity to build a
network (their group of disciples). Once a network reaches 100, that leader will
become a Pastor and possibly come on staff. Evangelism and Discipleship will not be
ministries but part of our church culture. Our new members processes will change.

We will reach the lost. We will see true growth in people’s lives. Our current ministries will be more productive. Our current leadership will have some of the
burden removed. We will all bear more fruit in our lives. We will be empowered in our communities and
not have to be at this building as much.
