    Hello!

    Welcome to the Future-Ready Assessment

    This assessment is designed to surface honest insight about the health of your regional
    church body—whether that’s a presbytery, synod, diocese, conference, etc. The goal isn’t a perfect score. The goal is the clarity and the conversations that follow in order to help your leadership move forward together.

    This assessment was shaped by voices from across the church—regional church body leaders, seminary professors, pastors, and national church leaders from more than seven different denominations.

    What You Are Assessing

    As you work through this assessment, you are evaluating your regional church body—the governing structure that connects and supports congregations in your area. You are not evaluating your local congregation, and you are not evaluating yourself personally.

    How the Assessment Works

    • Each question uses a sliding scale. Simply move the slider to the spot that best reflects your current experience of the system.
    • Answer from your own honest perspective. You don’t need to represent everyone—your experience is what matters here.
    • For compiled results, make sure to include the name of your regional church body so responses can be grouped together.
    • For the most useful results, it is recommended that at least 5 leaders from your team complete the assessment.

    Not Sure How to Answer a Question?

    Respond to each question based on your honest experience and perspective. Your perception of the system is meaningful data—even an uncertain gut feeling tells us something important about how the system is experienced from the inside. There are no wrong answers.

    What This Assessment Will Help You Do

    • Identify strengths and growth opportunities in your regional church body’s leadership and ministry capacity
    • Uncover challenges your leadership team may not yet have named
    • Highlight opportunities for revitalization and innovation
    • Generate prompts and discussion starters to help your team move forward together

    No assessment can fully capture every leadership situation—but this one can help you identify the conversations that matter most. Take it, use the results, and engage in
    honest dialogue about the future of your regional church body together.
