The old scorecard of the church valued the external measures of the three Bs: bodies, budget, and buildings. The North American culture likes to count and so does its church. So we count the number of people attending, the number of dollars being used, and the number of square feet being inhabited for the purpose of the church. “The old scorecard keeps us church-absorbed. As long as we use it, we will continue to be inward-focused, program-driven, and church-based in our thinking and leadership.”1
