Your Classis Reflection Results

Your Result: Great Concern

Great concern is not the end of the story.

Your responses suggest that your classis may be experiencing significant strain in the relationships, shared mission, and practices that help churches move forward together.

This result is not a final judgment. It is an invitation to name what is difficult, listen carefully, and discern where trust, clarity, and shared direction may need to be rebuilt.

You do not have to navigate this alone. The Center for Church Renewal can help your leaders understand what this reflection may be revealing and identify a faithful next step toward renewal.

Do other leaders see your classis the same way?

Invite several trusted leaders from across your classis to complete the reflection. Comparing perspectives can help reveal where concerns are shared, where experiences differ, and where rebuilding may need to begin.
