The purpose of this project in ministry was to develop a ministry strategy for families experiencing sexual-identity issues at First Baptist Church, Kennesaw, Georgia. The objective was to develop a strategy that balanced the grace of Jesus with the truth of his gospel, to express love to all while holding to biblical convictions. Based upon a strategy planning model, this project contained four phases. Initially, I surveyed the First Baptist Church congregation to define the target audience and discover the church culture relative to issues of sexual identity. The objective of the second phase was to determine best practices by exploring existing models of sexual-identity ministry. The information from the first two steps then informed the development of a sexual-identity family ministry strategy for First Baptist Church, including the selection and training of a strategy planning team who designed the ministry strategy. To conclude the project, I presented the completed ministry strategy to the First Baptist Church staff, who unanimously agreed to integrate the strategy into the church’s discipleship ministry. In conjunction with the implementation of this project, I also sought to increase both my knowledge of sexual-identity issues and my skill in strategy planning.
