Overview

Ministry without vision is like a surgeon without a scalpel

Strong leaders have vision that is both far-reaching and focused on the details. Having that vision is what separates churches with a hodge-podge of ineffective programs and activities from churches that reach people effectively, efficiently, and consistently with the Good News. In Developing a Vision for Ministry, leadership expert Aubrey Malphurs helps you develop and define unique, realistic, and appropriate goals for your ministry

He shows church planters, pastors, and ministry leaders how to

craft a vision statement

communicate that vision

encourage buy-in from influencers

turn up the energy level

grow the church

Now in its third edition, this groundbreaking book includes sample vision statements, helpful illustrations, worksheets, and end-of-chapter questions to move you beyond theory to practical, workable guidelines that will make a profound difference in your ministry.
