The following are ways that churches can maintain lively Christian ministries.
Getting straight the mission, vision and also the values to be followed. The mission outlines the reason why the cathedral is set up. The vision carries the intentions of a church. A church with such ambitions puts in place strategies of achieving these important values. This is what the believers build on so that they can forego their past wrong habits and follow the mission of a church. This will create a congregation with right values.
Create procedures of making disciples. There must be a purpose and procedure of making disciples. This is simply because the church has the responsibility of helping its members to use the Word to ensure strong and mature followers. They should also be assisted in discovering and growing their gifts through the knowledge of the bible.
Ensuring that you relate well with the believers. You need to liaise with the members closely. You should easily mark the sinful acts and correct them. Shrewd leaders always welcome the guests that come to their cathedrals. You are then required to incorporate these guests to see to it that their desires are fulfilled.
Mentoring leaders. The pastor needs to spend time to mentor and train capable leaders. Its more effective to train followers in a small church.

It will be of greater value if the pastor is committed in helping his members to identify and nature their gifts and capabilities. It is not an issue of adults only. Children should be aided to discover them at young age. Therefore the church should create such opportunities.
Building the ministry on principles that are already proven. There is no shortcut for making the cathedral to be productive. It is inevitable to achieve any goals without involving God. No cathedral can be able to overcome demonic power without involving Him. Neither can it succeed in helping people change their bad habits and destructive thinking. Faith, prayer and empowerment is what that can enable the believers to transform the lives of believers.
Lastly, ensure participation church members. For a follower to grow as a believer, he or she is required to be active in studying and applying the word of the bible.
