The staff is paid to run the church. Staff members should be evaluated on the basis of their performance. The primary missions role of the local church is to provide financial support to missionaries. The spiritual maturity of Christians is best measured by the things they avoid doing. The more mature a Christian is, the more time he or she will spend at church.
Successful churches are large churches.
The pastor is the head of the church. The more programs the church has, the more successful the church is. The greater the percentage of its budget the church spends on missions, the more successful the church. Church programs must be led by the staff. The happier church members are, the healthier their church.
