Ministry Flow Chart Objective
“Cooperating with the Holy Spirit to help a
person move from being an unsaved, unchurched
guest to becoming a global Christian.”
A popular ministry flow chart in America developed by
Rick Warren.
This ministry flow chart uses two simple symbols.
5 circles

Warren’s 5 Circles… are the 5 groups of
people every NewStart, ReStart & ReFocusing
leader works with long-term

Principle #1
The strength of the church is not just the size of the crowd but the size of the core!
Principle #2
You always build a church from the
outside in, never the inside out!
Your Ministry Flow Chart will include programs, but they are NOT the
focus!
We focus on the objective, the process of Jesus “making disciples.”

Description of a Discipled PersonHow will we help people know it: The congregation will know these statements because we will demonstrate them and model them, preach them and teach them, and expect them of our leadership.
The statements
How will we know?
How will we help people embrace it?
How will we help people live it?
What are we going to do?
1. A disciple is a steward of his/her time, money, and talents.
Biblical tithing/sacrificial giving
Appropriate division of time between God, family, and career
Involved in life of church
Committed to growth
Teach classes on spiritual gifts
Create an environment were there are expectations of ALL the people to get involved, not just the holy few
Classes on financial stewardship in general
By example – like the church tithing
Take the initiative to recruit people (go to them instead of waiting for them to come to us)
Preach it! Promote Sundays as family
nights Provide ideas, materials,
books, etc. Testimony about the value
of tithing
Teach classes on spiritual gifts (Network or Shape)
Teach class on financial stewardship (Dave Ramsey, Crown, or Good Sense)
Promote Sundays as family nights (use 1 Sunday a month as a corporate fellowship time for small groups and others)
Promote short term involvement in ministry (try a new ministry month, use as follow up for a spiritual gifts class, service projects through small groups, recognize “laypeople”)
