There are five different ways in which we assess ministries or churches:

• Missional Assessment - Looking at the missional pulse of the group. Examining how the ministry is engaging in her context as well as analyze how she is forming a missional culture.
• Equipper Assessment - Taking a deep look at ministry balance in the leadership of the ministry or church as it relates to the ministry outlook of the five equippers and Belbins team dynamics.
• Ministry Assessment - Looking at the current ministries of the church and assessing how well they are fulfilling the stated mission as well as looking at the strengths and weaknesses of organizational alignment and ministry balance.
• Resource Assessment - Taking a look at the current assets of the congregation - in particular finances, buliding, community reputation and spiritual energies.  We will explore the sustainability issues as well as possibilities for the future.
• Cultural Assessment - Looking at the artifacts, espoused values and basic underlying assumptions from with the group operates.  This assessment seeks to discover the cultural DNA of the group by understanding the various genes that need to be further embraced or re-examined.
