The Ministry Fitness CheckTM report package includes over 30 pages of detailed results. The graphs show responses to the questions, and are grouped by age, degree of involvement and giving, marital status, etc. Used as a diagnostic tool, the Ministry Fitness CheckTM can help a church to communicate better and also to continually sharpen its focus in reaching its community for Christ.
The data generated by the Ministry Fitness CheckTM is processed onto elastic scale graphs. The average score of all questions is deemed zero, becoming the center line on the graph. This allows the responses of the four age groupings to be plotted in terms of relative satisfaction. This is extremely informative about how various groups perceive the church and its different ministry components.

As might be anticipated, evangelism is a consistently lower area. This graph provides valuable information to help prepare a church for a new thrust. Congregations reporting dissatisfaction are more likely to respond to training. When helped to take ownership of congregational problems with evangelism, people are more willing and empowered to become involved in working towards creating effective solutions.
