Why this assessment
A clear picture of how your church is doing in missions
Most churches are doing more than they realise, in a patchwork of practice they have never had a reason to lay side by side. This assessment lays it out, dimension by dimension, so you can see the strengths worth building on and the gaps worth naming.
We’ve had TRAIN International come out and help us establish a vision and a strategy for our missions team, and they did a fantastic job in helping us create a matrix so that we knew exactly where our heart was for international missions.
Seven dimensions, twenty-one questions
Three questions each on biblical foundations, prayer, vision, leadership, sending, sustaining and receiving. Together they cover the whole arc of how a church sends and then cares for the people it sends.
A picture per dimension, not a single score
There is no overall grade, because one number would hide the thing you came for. Each dimension comes back on its own, so a genuine strength is not averaged away by a gap somewhere else.
The blind spots, named plainly
The questions ask about practices that are easy to assume are already in place. Where your church turns out to be further along than it thought, you will see that too.
One next step, and somewhere to take it
Every dimension returns a single concrete next step and one resource, rather than a list to triage. Your results arrive by email, so you can bring them to your team rather than to a screen.
