What is Place? PLACE is an intentional process to connect church members into purpose-driven
ministry including self-discovery, individualized ministry coaching
and tracking from workshop to ministry placement. Through the PLACE
process, people discover that God has created and gifted them with
a unique capacity to serve others.
- The P in PLACE is for Personality Discovery. Participants
use the unique assessments to discover their Personality
based on the DISC model.
- The L represents Learning Spiritual Gifts. PLACE
promotes a scripture-based, 16-gift model using our
comprehensive 112 question assessment.
- The A stands for Abilities Awareness. Here, participants
complete an assessment to discover the most effective
environment for them to comfortably serve.
- The C is for Connecting Passion with Ministry.
PLACE’s unique curriculum helps Christians
identify their passions for ministries and people,
and discover how they best demonstrate passion.
- The E in PLACE deals with Experiences of Life.
This session allows individuals to explore the effects
of their past experiences and how those experiences
play a vital role in finding their place of service.
Why PLACE Works PLACE is not just another church program. It is a process of self-discovery
and service for all Christians. The PLACE Workshop is not just another
seminar that sends you home excited with no real practical tools.
PLACE Workshops equip you with the knowledge, tools and power you
need to transform your church.
What makes PLACE different and effective is our step-by-step
implementation process and resources. Through the PLACE
process, participants discover that God created them
with unique Personality, Spiritual Gifts, Abilities,
Passions and Experiences. Discovering God’s purpose
and plan for their lives helps members find their PLACE
of service within the Body of Christ! PLACE is a biblically
based and highly effective way of doing church! Why is it Important? Today more than any other time in history, people
have more choices as to how to give their time. They
find themselves asking, "Where do I fit in?" "Why am
I here?" and "What can I do to make a lasting difference
in my life and the lives of others?"
God created each of us for a purpose. "For we are
God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good
works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Ephesians
2:10. Part of his purpose for us is to edify the church
and to serve in its ministries. "...to prepare God's
people for the works of service, so that the Body of
Christ may be built up." Ephesians 4:12. The PLACE
process can help you discover how God has uniquely
designed you, and it will help you realize His purpose
for your life. You find your life as you give it away...but
first you have to know what you have to give!
