Identifying Core Values of the New Expedition (The Greatest Expedition)

All churches have core values. Your ministry, no matter how old or how new, is operating now with a set of values. Our role as leaders in the church is to invest the time and energy to identify those values and to use them wisely as we make ministry decisions and guide us toward God's vision. Even with a system in place to let you know when you are straying beyond one or more of your core values, you will likely face storms in your ministry which could put those systems at risk. The core values you discern for your ministry are too important for you to let anything distract you or force you to cross over the line. While it is true that all churches have core values, Author Ken Willard thinks there would be very few of them that have ever gone through a process of intentional discernment to identify those values. Having this book in your hands means that you are going where few ministry leaders have gone before. This journey is too important for you to take it on your own. Chapters include:? What Do I Pack?? Preparation? Let's Get Started? Discerning the Core Values? Core Value Discernment (Prayer, Research, Survey, Leadership, Assemble, Communicate, Live Into)
