ChurchPulse Survey

Hello Fremont Family!  We want to keep communicating about the Barna ChurchPulse survey that was recently completed by many of you (thank you!).  We are looking at several key areas. The question we want to highlight this week is:

‘How can we equip people for their discipleship as they go about their week?’

Wow - that’s a good one - and the Barna survey asked several questions about your faith experience and to reflect on your experience with Fremont. You may recall some statements such as:

I desire Jesus to be first in my life.

I believe God is actively involved in my life.

I give away my time to serve and help others in my community.

I feel fully equipped to share my faith with people who do not attend church

Also these (in reference to Fremont):

How well does this church support your spiritual growth through helping you understand the basic foundations of the Bible?

This church helps me live out the teachings of the Bible in my everyday life.

This church helps me develop habits of prayer that better connect me with God.

This church helps me find ways to use all of my gifts (time, skills, and financial resources) to honor God or serve others.

This church empowers me to make an impact in the lives of others.

This church provides opportunities for me to help those who are suffering or marginalized.

My next steps for spiritual growth at this church are clear to me.

The results showed that many do have a strong faith—desiring God to be first and involved in everything we do. However, as a church, we have some improvement that could take place in discipleship and taking that faith into our everyday lives. Each person as they learn, grow and are discipled is such a blessing to Fremont. We are looking and praying for ways we can be better as a church to disciple and equip people for their daily lives AND outline their next steps spiritually.

We are still digesting the results of the survey and will be sharing over the coming months some ‘data.’ We are also really seeking and praying for God’s direction and leading. Will you join us in praying for that direction?  We want to take the information you have all supplied and use it to grow God’s kingdom in our neighborhood, city and world.
