Health-checks index

There are now three detailed tools: The Church Health Review for churches, The Christian Effectiveness Model for mission agencies and A Gift Assessment for Administrators for individual administrators (added April 2019)

The Church Health Review was extensively revised in 2014 and is now presented in a new, simpler format with all the questions recast. See HC4 and HC5 in the index below.

The Christian Effectiveness Model was similarly and thoroughly revised over the summer of 2015 and from October is now presented in a similar format. See HC6 and HC7 in the index below.

A Gift Assessment for Administrators was written and uploaded in 2019. See HC8 and HC9 in the index below.
