Evidence suggests that the teaching ministry in today's church is weaker than in New Testament churches. The dissertation offers a model for motivating improvement based on the identification of three types of need: felt, real and educational. Members of four churches from different denominations rated topics and took a 50-item test on Bible, doctrine, missions, and ethics prepared with the help of a modified Delphi technique. Significant needs were exposed. Real need was not always matched by a felt need, casting doubt on its motivating power. Real need in long-standing and better-educated Christians was not significantly lower.
