OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIC INITIATIVES
First things first
How should an organization determine its priorities?
Without focus, an organization can become to broad and lose track of its vision and not fulfill its mission. This is why we engage in strategic initiatives: to help us accomplish our Mission and reach our preferred future.
"Where there is no vision, the people perish..."

Objectives and Strategic Initiatives

I would maybe argue that church revitilization could be the most important. In an age where culture has cast church aside and often has a truly negative view of Christianity, the church needs to adapt. This doesn’t mean we need to up church production value or become flashier, but we need to become relevant to culture so that we can reach the people of our modern age.

I think the most important focus is on Next gen development and release

Leadership development is definitely the most vital of the strategic initiatives listed because none of the other initiatives can be done without the presence of leadership that is at least mediocre. leadership has most likely pervaded almost signal initiative that have ever existed and done well, otherwise initiatives are lost in high water. However, what I think we need in leadership development and an effective initiative is specialized leadership training for every other strategic initiative ACOP has put in place. Every initiative needs a leader in tune with the heart and soul of the initiative, and that cannot be done with a cookie cutter leadership training format. every strategy is different and purposeful, and that’s what makes them effective. Leaders need to know the strategy inside and out.

I think Leadership Development may be one of the most important. Timothy in the Bible had some kind of mentorship with Paul who was able to encourage and train him. Today, I believe that ACOP is doing a wonderful job training leaders. I had the pleasure of taking a Leadership mini-semester with Pastor Chris Westby, and it opened my eyes to all the things I would have never thought of when it comes to leadership and ministry. I believe that Leadership Development is vital to the future of ACOP and God’s Kingdom.
