Utilizing our Ministry Enablement methodology and framework, we have been helping churches discover their ideal software fit and optimize their ministry technology for the last 20 years. We would love to help you too!
“When it came time to upgrade to a new church management software, we did not know where to start. In Enable we found a company that understood the ministry process but provided an outside perspective and analysis. Our Enable consultant helped distill the needs and whims of multiple departments to a comprehensive list of must-haves. Enable then presented this to different software vendors and helped us keep track of who met what needs. This process helped us understand what specifically we wanted from the new software that could have been easily lost. We found the Enable process helpful because it gave everyone on our team input on the decision. Our consultant helped translate sales jargon and supported us towards a final decision as a team rather than individuals. Enable’s assistance was very valuable and would recommend it to anyone considering a large move like this!”
Karen Horner, former Business Administrator, First Presbyterian Church Nashville
“Enable really helped us by understanding out needs and culture and pointing us to solutions that would be a good fit. Their experience with lots of churches using various ChMS systems helped us understand the real world, day in and day out ramifications of each ChMS we explored.”
Rick Steele, Executive Pastor Operations, Changepoint Church, Anchorage, AK
“This has been some of the most valuable time we’ve ever had as a staff. We’ve never done anything like this before. The benefit of engaging with Enable is more than just a software decision. It presents an opportunity for your staff to realign on your church’s mission and vision. Every discussion and decision was had and made with this in mind, and consequently helped unify our staff under the common purpose of our church’s mission. The engagement of our staff was amazing to me – everyone was extremely frustrated with our old platform, and everyone had their own opinions, agendas, and desires. But Elliott helped to keep everyone aligned and unified.
Even though the final decision came down to a few key people, Enable’s process cultivated strong buy-in from the entire staff, because they had all worked together and collaborated to narrow it down and saw the benefits of each. This has absolutely resulted in better adoption of the software. And one unexpected benefit of going through this process: We made a decision that is saving money in the long run!
We are so happy! I don’t regret Elliott’s time here at all. It is a big decision to spend that kind of money on a consultant, but it was a win-win all around. Totally worth the investment.”
