Quick takeaways

To clarify the next bold move for a church, establish a strong foundation, confirm theology and mission, and narrow down ideas for specific alignment.

To ensure a bold move is bold enough, evaluate if it requires significant changes in resources, time, leadership commitment, and prayer, rallying most people while potentially repelling some.

Deep dives

Clarifying the Next Bold Move

To clarify the next bold move for a church, it is crucial to first establish a strong foundation, including confirming theology and mission. Churches should pray, dream, and have conversations internally before seeking outside help. The process involves narrowing down ideas and choosing one or two specific bold moves that align with the mission. By thoroughly discussing pros, cons, resources, risks, and kingdom impact, the leadership team can gain clarity and alignment. This provides a new vision, direction, and energizes the team to rally behind the bold move.
