  10. Vision or Blueprints? • Noah and the Ark – What can we learn? “Make a boat from resinous wood and seal it with tar, inside and out. Then construct decks and stalls throughout its interior. Make it 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high. Construct an opening all the way around the boat, 18 inches below the roof. Then put three decks inside the boat—bottom, middle, and upper—and put a door in the side.” Gen 6:14-16

  11. Four Types of People: • Visionaries (flyers) • Implementers (climbers) • Maintainers (walkers) • Complainers (snipers)

  12. Questions for Dan… • But aren’t I just constraining God? • Who should be involved at this stage? (My coach? Launch team?)

  13. Step 1 – Begin with the End in mind • Covey Quote – “To begin with the end in mind means to start with a clear understanding of your destination. It means to know where you’re going so that you better understand where you are now and so that the steps you take are always in the right direction.” • What does the house look like? • First step in creating the future out of today!

  14. Step 1 – Begin with the End in mind • Develop a written philosophy of ministry (vision, values, strategy, etc) • Develop written opening day expectations Product: A written description that paints a picture of opening day

  15. Questions for Dan… • What is the benefit to the church planter? • What is the benefit to the launch team?

  16. Step 2 – Develop Strategies Nehemiah Principal • Break things down into smaller logical pieces • Purpose…Objectives…Actions • Align all areas to church purpose

  17. Step 2 – Develop Strategies • Potential Strategies: • Prayer • Staffing Plan • Marketing Plan • Fundraising Plan • Small Group Plan • Facility Plan • Equipment Plan • Core Group/Launch Team Development • Demographic/Contextualization Plan • Outreach/Service Plan • Community Networking/Partnering • Finance Plan (Budget) • Ministry Teams/Processes Plan

  18. Step 2 – Develop Strategies • Identify key strategies to include in your plan • Write purpose, objectives, and actions • Compile actions into list • Product:List of actions (everything you need to do)

  19. Step 3 – Grouping & Sequencing • Action Points: • Group actions into logical groupings (e.g. marketing, equipment, etc) • Put actions in required sequence • Example: Grocery list…individual products…type of food…order based on location in store • Product: Actions are grouped logically and are roughly in the order in which they will be accomplished

  20. Step 4 – Integrating Schedule Dates • Action Points: • Assign dues dates to the major groupings from step 3 • Assign due dates to actions within the major groupings • Product: A solid schedule

  21. Step 5 – Integrating Finances • Action Points: • Assign a cost / budget to each action • Product: A solid budget

  22. Step 6 – Integrating Responsibilities Action Points: Review each action and assign a lead person to complete the action. Consider role of planter, spouse, family members, launch team members, staff member, part-time workers, and contractors Product: Delegation tool for getting broader participation

  23. What’s Next? • Products: • A written description that paints a picture of opening day • A scheduled list of actions with people assigned to them and cost estimates which will help you achieve this goal

  24. Question for Dan… • I have a very clear vision… why spend the time to write it down?
