OUR SERVICES
4C Church Consulting provides consultations that range from one-day visits to multi-month and multi-year services. Fees for all consultations are donation-based (cost for the Church Health Survey is $245). Traveling expenses must be paid by a hosting church. 4C Church Consulting endeavors to provide personal and practical support to church leaders in the form of:
- Church Health Survey

Church Health Surveys
The Church Health Survey is a 160-item questionnaire that measures a church's perceived health in six purposes of the church: worship, evangelism, fellowship, discipleship, prayer and ministry. Church leaders choose a sampling of the church membership to complete the 30-40 minute survey, and we provide a 40 page report for the church. The cost is $245 for a basic package (45 surveys, 45 answer sheets, and a 40 page report). The process and directions are self-explanatory, and the final report includes suggestions for addressing concerns raised.
The minimum number of members needed to be surveyed is:
| No. in Attendance | No. of Surveys Required |
|---|---|
| Less than 100 | 30 |
| 100-200 | 35 |
| 201-300 | 45 |
| 301-400 | 60 |
| 400+ | 15% of worship attendance |
