5. Principle of Stewardship

Every Great Commission investment should seek to maximize the SROI (spiritual return on investment).

8. Principle of Dependence

9. Principle of Outreach Focus

Churches are called to be outwardly focused. The reality is that most are inwardly focused. Changing a church’s culture requires at least a five year commitment by church leadership and a bold action plan.
