Episode 30:When to Cut a Program
Questions to ask yourself:
How many do you have? Are you killing your people?
Is it inward focused or outward focused? (Hint: you need both, but keep more outward) Example Sunday school/small groups can be either.
Is the cost and benefit in line with your budget?
Is another tool a better choice?
Are people passionate about the program? Usually folks are on fire for a year or two but after that it usually cools significantly
Everything that you do in church or business needs to be evaluated - tough love
Even if you keep a program - evaluating keeps it in line and meeting your vision
