Here are some questions for you to consider ( some questions adapted from Henry Blackaby's book Flickering Lamps)

 

1. How was your church started - was it started from a split from another church? Or was it an intentional plant from another church?

 

2. What did the founders intend when they started your church? Was there a specific group they were trying to reach? Was the church to have a unique focus?

 

3. How is the church different from when it was established? Is that good?

 

4. How does your church glorify God? What are some aspects in which it does not glorify God as it should?

 

5. In what ways is your church making disciples?  In what ways is it failing to make disciples? Is your congregation focused at all on making disciples "of all nations"?

 

6. What are you doing currently to impact the nations for Christ?  What has your church done in the past? How long ago was that?

 

7. How is your church's presence currently making a positive impact on your community?  When it began, was it seen as a positive force? Would people miss your church if it were gone?

 

8. What are some sins for which your church needs to repent?  What is your plan for getting your church to do so? When and how?
