Assessing Your Vision
OBJECTIVE
What if your ministry vision could be even more effective? This training covers the importance of regularly assessing your vision, not just the outcomes. We outline five key areas of assessment: clarity, strategy, participation, sustainability, and creativity. By evaluating these aspects, you can ensure the vision remains aligned with God's calling, is adaptable to change, and effectively carry it out.
