This is an opportunity to preview the material that will be explored during the 24 month process. The main points from each module will be discussed. You will also receive valuable instruction on how to use big events as a catalyst for growth.
Finding the Church’s Uniqueness in Ministry and Strengths
Module 1 is designed to help you take a deep, honest look into the current condition of your church. You must have a clear vision stating what you need to do in one to three years to conquer your city for Christ. Your church’s passion, strengths and resources will help you establish your vision. Remember, vision is not where you are going but where you want to be.
Developing Laity Involvement
Module 2 explores the following dysfunctional church leadership models: Staff Run Church Model, Desperate Volunteer Model, and Chaos Model. After careful examination of these models you will understand why they do not promote church growth and how a team approach based on spiritual giftings is a much more effictive leadership model. Your church will grow by the ratio of laity involvement.
Laity Involvement Through the Pastor’s Meal
Module 3 concentrates on the “pastor’s meal” which is the best method for involving laity in ministry in order for discipleship to take place. Four areas are covered in the “pastor’s meal”: church’s vision, evangelism training, spiritual gifts discovery/training and discipleship through lay involvement. A pastor’s meal offers friends, follow-up, leads, commitment and importance.
Making the Church like Heaven on Earth
Module 4 focuses on Team 2 (WOW! First Impressions Team). You will discover how this team creates an accepting, friendly atmosphere where the love of God is demonstrated. The law of first impressions and initial contact ministry is to make the church feel like Heaven on Earth.
The Guarantee for Retention
Module 5 deals with the creation of Team 5 (Care and Follow-up Team). The principle function of this team is to show the love of Christ to “First Time Attendees” and to help them feel accepted and appreciated by the church. This Team is a Top Priority. The key component to healthy growth is retention.
Dr. Engel’s Highpoint
Module 6 explains the role of Team 4(Worship). The goal of worship is a spiritual experience so exciting that members want to invite their “unchurched” friends. You will gain powerful insight into this influential team and an understanding of the point of the Worship Experience.

The impact of ambiance and the contextual factors of worship are remarkable.
How to Conquer Your City
Module 8 addresses the purpose of Team 1(Outreach Team). Outreach is…evangelism. The difference between a growing church and a dying church is the word–invite. You must create activities and events that give members a reason to invite their “unchurched” friends to church. The law of impacting your target audience is vital.
The Larger Outreach
Module 9 concentrates on the seven rules of outreach- exposure, repetition, promotion, involvement, influence, focus and networking.

Children’s Ministry

You will discover how to make this happen at your church by exploring babysitting vs. ministry.
Connection Points
Module 12 explores the purpose and structure of small groups. You will find that the most effective way of closing the back door of the church is to develop small groups.

Preparing for Multiple Services
Module 13 addresses the needs and procedures for additional services and sites. You will find that you do not offer other services and sites because you are full. You offer them in order to provide people with choices and to increase you church’s effectiveness.
Grid System
