Abstract

Christian Horizons is a large, vibrant Christian ministry. The ability of Christian Horizons to continue as such is dependent upon a clear articulation of its reasons for existence to thousands of employees and to its stakeholders. In the organizations 45 year history, it has grown to become one of the largest ministries of its type in Canada. The idea of a strategic and articulated organizational culture is a new consideration for Christian Horizons. It has become obvious that a method for evaluating systems with values is critical. If the organization is to fulfill its mission 'To serve the person with exceptional needs,' a clear method of aligning mission with the value statement, 'We will honor God and value people in all we do and with all our resources,' must be created. What is proposed is a framework based on Christian Horizons 'Responding to the Call' principles that can guide organizational thinking. By applying the framework, organizational decisions, processes, and behaviors can be explored using a common tool.
