This week we talk about how important vision is in smaller churches and moreover how vital clarity is in getting the vision for your church. 

We discuss:

-Why small churches need vision to fight complexity

-We talk about the tendacy of smaller churches to roll out generic vision so they don't really have to change

-We talk about how complexity confuses disciple making

-We then shift to clarity and what you need to do to determine where you are.  That clarity takes time.

-We talk about the importance of starting with your leadership first

-3 ways to get clarity on who your church family is:

              -Conversations with members

              - Surveys at the right time

              -Prayer, prayer, and more prayer
