The New Metrics: How Do They Look in Your Church

By Lois Swagerty published on February 23, 2011

Changing the scorecard is a hot topic among missional leaders these days. It seems as if everyone is talking about how the church should change its metrics of success. Books such as Reggie McNeal’s Missional Renaissance and Ed Stetzer’s Transformational Church are fueling the dialog. Within Missional Renaissance Leadership Communities, the new scorecard targets the shift from an internal to an external focus and from program development to people development.

Thanks - this is a high priority for us in the coming year.

I used the Transformational Church book and assessment tool with 18 churches as part of my doctoral dissertation.

The participating churches have, indeed, found this “new scorecard” to be energizing and a real catalyst to positive change.

The TCAT is an excellent tool for analysis and charting change.

I serve as Lead Pastor at the Church http://www.livelifetogether.com/.

We are using the “Life Marks Journey” http://www.lifemarksjourney.com/.  This assessment tool walks our people though the process of considering their current stage of spiritual development and encourages them to develop a growth plan.

The best part with regard to “changing the scorecard” is that it provides a dashboard that shows how many people are using the assessment and gives us real-time measures of aggregate responses so we can see how people rate themselves in areas that matter to us.  It’s completely customizable, so now we are able to measure the characteristics that we had already identified as our Missional Life Marks.

Thanks Lois for your article.  You shared some resources I will be checking out and caused me to do some good brain storming for what we measure and how we measure it!

Nov10   Jesus was definitely on a dwnaword path, and as you point out, Kathy isn’t just theorizing about it, but living it. Like you, I felt her book was written right to me.

Thing you are talking about sounds right.  However, consider this, what happens if you included a little more?  I mean, I dont tend to teach ways to write your site, however if you added extra content which could get peoples awareness?  Just as a video or possibly a picture or perhaps 2 to obtain your readers psyched regarding what youve got to say.

I apologize for the possible off-topic Guys, but could you inform me which web hosting company you are using right now I have a problem because my current web hosting company godaddy.com is kicking me off. They say that our website is using too many server resources. But our website only gets 100 visitors per day. Anyway, what would be your recommendations? Are you happy with your web hosting company? I am checking LCN at the moment, but is it real that they can provide unlimited disk space? I have contacted them and they say something like 2000gb disk drive costs only $50 per month, so if some day we will start running out of disk space we will simply add a new 500gb drive so can continue updating.. What do you think about it? Any ideas and web host name suggestions are much appreciated.
