Church Ministry Analysis Core Values Where do you want to go? Mission Vision How will you get there? Strategy A Values Overview Theology of Values Importance of Values Definition of Values Values Discovery Question Fundamental question: Have you carefully identified your actual core values so that you understand what truly empowers and guides your church and explains why you do what you do? Discovery of Values Communication of Values 1
2 Theology of Values Theology of Values 1. The Bible specifically addresses the church s organizational core values in places like Acts 2: Luke points out five essential values of a biblically balanced, spiritually healthy church (Jerusalem Church)* Theology of Values JERUSALEM CHURCH Five Essential Core Values 1. Evangelism (Acts 2:41, 47) 2. Instruction (Acts 2:42) 3. Fellowship (Acts 2:42, 44, 45, 46) 4. Worship (Acts 2:42, 43, 46, 47) 5. Service (Acts 2:45) Theology of Values 1. Churches also have personal values (not the focus here). 2. Following are a few personal values: Acceptance don t have to look like us Humility we mess up too-not arrived! Honesty we don t have all the answers Courage we need to face tough questions! Vulnerability where I m struggling Authenticity what you see is who we are. Importance of Values Importance of Values The most important single element of any corporate, congregational, or denominational culture, however, is the value system. Lyle Schaller, Getting Things Done, p 152 2
3 Importance of Values Twenty-first century leaders no longer lead from the authority of their position, but by an ability to articulate a clear direction for and the core values of their congregation. Definition of Values Bill Hybels and Ken Blanchard Definition of Values WHAT ARE CORE VALUES? The constant, passionate core beliefs that empower and guide the ministry. Definition of Values Question isn t: Do we have values? Question is: Which values go deep and really, truly empower and guide what you do? Definition of Values 1. Most churches are on a journey (mission) toward a destination (vision). 2. The church s core values guide and drive the church toward that destination. 3. If the church is off course on its journey, the problem is with its values (values aren t in alignment with the mission-vision). 4. The solution is to change the values or the stated mission-vision. 3
4 Conscious vs. unconscious values. Judgment Communication Impact Curiosity Innovation Conscious Values NetFlix An example of Core Values with behavioral expectations their values are: Courage Passion Honesty Selflessness Unconscious Values Like the engine and rudder of a ship both are below the water line and out of sight. Conscious vs. unconscious values. Shared vs. unshared values. Most people are unaware of their vales unless asked to think about them. Leadership s job is to move unconscious values to a conscious level. ADVANTAGES OF SHARED VALUES Greater commitment to organization Reduced conflict Conscious vs. unconscious values. Shared vs. unshared values. Personal vs. church s values. More positive work attitude Greater job satisfaction Jennifer A. Chatman 4
5 Conscious vs. unconscious values. Shared vs. unshared values. Personal vs. church s values. Actual vs. aspirational values. Who s Values are these? Excellence Respect Communication Integrity Excellence Respect Communication Integrity Enron! 2000 Annual Report ACTUAL VS. ASPIRATIONAL Actual values you own and practice. They re deeply felt and affect everything you do every day of the week. Ask: Where s the evidence? Aspirational values you believe that you need in order to obey God. Conscious vs. unconscious values. Shared vs. unshared values. Personal vs. organizational values. Actual vs. aspirational values. Single vs. multiple values* *power of a value 5
