Most churches understand that taking action, by re-evaluating ministries and programs is essential for continued growth and vigour. Often churches do not consider the appropriate action for where they presently find themselves on the “Congregational Life Cycle”. This leads to the expenditure of large amounts of energy and resources to follow a road that will not lead them to greater health. Like taking aspirin for pneumonia.
The reason a church should assesses itself using this model is to help ensure that they are using the right methodology for their specific situation. In doing so they are more likely to get the desired result.
