This can lead to poor decision-making or even disagreements over how things should be done.As a church leader, how can you create alignment on your church's foundational elements?The answer lies in having a proper evaluation process in place.You need to evaluate where each aspect currently stands within your church culture and then work together to ensure that each has the necessary clarity and cohesiveness to communicate clearly and effectively across your church community.To better understand how to assess if your church is on the right track with this process, we've invited Chirs Vacher, Church Advisor & Leadership Development Consultant, to share brilliant insights and key questions that will bring clarity on where you are going as a church and what steps you need to take next.“I'm a huge proponent of clarity and inspiration. For me, those are the two ingredients if you want to actually accomplish the thing that you're setting out to do.”-Chris Vacher You must remember that your obedience to God matters most here. If you seek Him first and allow Him to guide your church in these areas, then you can make meaningful progress in growing your ministry.If you're looking for guidance on approaching these important topics and ensuring that everyone in your church is on board with the direction of your ministry—this episode is for you!By the end of this episode, you will learn:The ways to better communicate your church's visionInsights for evaluating the church's mission and visionThe importance of clarity in your church's visionWhy the church needs strategic vision & planningResources Mentioned:Know more about Chris: chrisvacher.comFollow Chris on Facebook: heychrisvacherFollow Chris on Instagram:  @heychrisvacherOther Episodes You May be Interested In:Planting a Church in 2022 with Sam CollierThe Secret to Church Revitalization with Cody EvansFinding Leaders That Fit Your Church Culture with Tim Foot=======Tithely provides the tools you need to engage with your church online, stay connected, increase generosity, and simplify the lives of your staff.With tools like text and email messaging, custom church apps and websites, church management software, digital giving, and so much more… it's no wonder over 37,000 churches in 50 countries trust Tithely to help run their church.Learn more at https://tithely.com
