We have taken great strides in the last decade in the way churches are planted. There is a higher rate of success now than over the last several decades. One of the tools that we're utilizing is called an Assessment. During the assessment we meet with the prospective planter and spouse to spend an entire day interviewing them on their past experience with ministry. The guiding principle is that past performance is the best indicator of future results.
Today I'll spend between 6 and 8 hours with this couple and another assessor hearing stories of ministry past. It is always a long day, but it is always encouraging as well.
