In this presentation, Brian Ford speaks about the results of a survey on church vitality. He talked to people with experience with church vitality, and they said the three things commonly used to assess vitality are attendance, baptisms, and contributions. He compares them with what you get taken at the doctor: height, weight, blood pressure, and pulse. They don't tell you everything, but their rates signal that there might be a problem or that things are going well. Watch the full video here.
