How often should we evaluate and revise our By-laws?
How do we know when we are trying to do too much?
Why aren't more people in their 20's and 30's in church leadership here?
How can we become better at being church rather than just doing church?
What is going on around our church that will influence who we are and what we do in the next 5 – 10 years?
How do we multiply disciples and churches from our church?
