Some more helpful stuff that came out of the Coaches Conference:
Testing 'engagement' in your ministry
There are three questions to ask to see what level of 'engagement' there is from the people involved in your ministry:
- What do people SAY about your ministry? Do they talk about the ministry informally? To outsiders? Do they say good things or bad things or incidential things?
- How long do people STAY with your ministry? Do people find it hard to stick? Do they leave after brief involvement? Or they they lock in and become part of the community?
- How hard to people STRIVE for your ministry? Do you create opportunities for people to participate? Do people readily accept these opportunities? Or do you have a volunteer crisis?
What kind of culture do we promote here?
What are the things we value? Prize? Celebrate? Expect? Approve of? What is the air our community breathes?
What are the things we look down on? Ignore? Critique? Censure? Care less about?
