Description

Do you really know your vision? Most churches have a mission or vision statement, but are stuck in a trap of generic communication. Just like a visionary restaurant needs a more specific focus than “serving food,” a visionary church needs something more than biblical generalizations like “loving God, loving people” or “making disciples and serving the world.” When a pastor doesn't move beyond this broad sense of where the church is going, momentum is hard to achieve and sustain. The vision statement lacks meaning and people don't feel empowered to support it. Planning becomes fruitless and the church continues with an “all things to all people” approach. In this groundbreaking work, based on 15 years and over 10,000 hours of church team facilitation, Will Mancini reveals the 12 basic templates for any church vision. By exploring these 12 kinds with biblical backgrounds and real-time church illustrations, your team will experience break-through clarity that makes focus more achievable. Progress doesn't have to be difficult. This increased clarity will significantly advance a church leader's inner confidence and outer credibility. It can pull your team together and bring unprecedented enthusiasm to your people. You are more of a visionary than you realize. Isn't it time to really articulate your vision?
