The team listened to the complexities of our context (migrants, international students and planting a church). They helped us see many more options than we could have come up with ourselves.
It always freaks you out when someone takes a look under the hood. It gave our leaders permission to think deeply and be critical about how we can be improving.
We were given small things we could implement quickly and larger things to plan towards. Some things were obvious, and some we just didn’t see.
Helpful to draw different things to the surface that we just weren’t thinking about.
The consult was 11 months ago and we’re still referring to it in terms of changes that we’re looking to make.
The statistics they gathered for us were excellent. After the consult, I am more deliberate in our Sunday gatherings to explain next steps for people visiting our church.
They helped us with the little things - the easy wins - that would make a difference. So a critique of our website, which we shifted to make it more outsider friendly, and we changed our physical signage.
The consult has been tremendously helpful. They know what they're talking about. They've seen it before, but it's not one size fits all. The consult is hard work, but it gave us so much more confidence for our team and for our church in where we're going.
Well worth the money and time. If you care about people in your community that aren't at your church, and if you want to have people be part of a better version of your church, it makes the cost worth it.
I am truly grateful for all that it has taught me. It’s really helped me understand myself better, my people better and the work that God has entrusted to all of us better.

We work across many denominations across Australia, as we’re willing to work with churches that affirm our biblical convictions.
Our consultants have a wide range of ministry and consulting experience in churches across Australia. The majority of consultations we do are focused on church revitalisation, though we recognise that the context of each church is quite different.
We have a network of coaches across Australia who have been trained in gospel coaching. These are ministry workers with a variety of experience and wisdom who can help you implement changes in your own ministry and across your church.
Yes, we will always come to your church to meet with you and your team in person for our full consults, so that we can make the most of our time together and better serve you.
It takes approximately 2 months to prepare for a consult, however we will always work with you to find the most suitable time to support your ministry.
