Check out my last two postings concerning the “Evaluating the Health of a Cell Church.”

Here’s Part Three:

How does a Network become a Healthy Cell Incubator?

• Measurements change from numbers and percentages to observation of behavior/activity.
• Leaders are so well cared for that they experience personal growth.
• Cell members are impassioned by their leaders continued growth and constant modeling.
• Collaboration among leaders expands skill and creativity within the leadership.
• Collaboration among cells brings diversity and creativity to the cell experience which stirs life.
• The community is impacted by the overflow of cell members intentionally getting outside of themselves and serving others.

    Rob, all three lists you’ve created are excellent. Quantitative and qualitative. The qualitative measurements are very difficult to gauge though. I would imagine each one would have to have a detailed sentence describing various levels within that point with a number attached to them… just so a church could compare numbers year over year.

    Qualitative analysis is a tough thing to do accurately, but it should still be pursued. Jim Egli had a great deal of success with it in his doctoral research surrounding small group health. He’s set up a web based assessment tool that I’ve yet to use with a church, but I’m fascinated to see what it covers and how health is measured….

    Someone should sign up, use it, and report back here as to what the results were!
