BBC's Evangelism Vision & Approach

This BLOG has been set-up to enable the BBC leadership to contribute to development of the EVANGELISM Vision and Approach. The agenda is no longer to establish a BBC vision. Over the coming months we will evaluate where we are, where we want to go and what needs to be done to close the gap. Follow the link to the new agenda. Feel free to contribute to the content and make sure that you indicate your name. The best way to do this is by answering the questions at the bottom of each post.

Post 2.2 The characteristics of a Vision Statement?

1. What is Vision ( from The Power of Vision)
  • Vision is clear
  • Vision is preferable to the current state
  • Vision concentrates on the future
  • Vision is from God
  • Vision is a gift to leaders that is tailored to the circumstances
  • Vision reflects a realistic perspective
  • Vision is dreaming the most possible dream
  • Vision is built on reality
  • A Visionary pastor is a successful pastor
2. Chip Ingram uses these words in the "How to grow a High Impact Church" series.

A vision:
  • Must be Dynamic
  • Must be simple & focused
  • Must be Clear
  • Must be Compelling
  • Must be Measurable

3. A vision statement should therefore be:

  • A short sentence
  • Describing the vision
  • Able to recreate a picture in people's minds
  • Desirable to the listeners
  • A stretch
  • Possible, but not necessarily on the current resources
  • A leading of God
Please comment:
  1. Do you agree with the above definitions and explanations of Vision
  2. Can you think of something else you would add to the list
