Melvin Feller Business Ministries Group Answers What Business Consultants do for You Melvin Feller Business Consultants Group Ministries in Texas and Oklahoma. Our mission is to call and equip a generation of Christian entrepreneurs to do business as ministry. We provide workshops and resources that help companies discover how to do business God’s way. When the heart of a business is service rather than self it can be transformed into a fruitful ministry. “Church consulting” is a process in which church leader’s partner with an outside “expert” to identify and address issues affecting the health, effectiveness, and direction of the church. There are some important words in the above definition: 1. Issues—It is often the presence of unusual or challenging circumstances that prompt church leaders to seek a consulting relationship in the first place. Not all such “circumstances” involve crises or problems. Sometimes, churches want to grow faster, church leaders desire to lead better and more proactively, church staff long to function more cooperatively and effectively. So, the issues prompting a consulting relationship can range from negative to positive, urgent to proactive, managing crises to building competencies. Usually, the issues facing a church tend to cluster around the classic SWOT acrostic: strengths (e.g., “We are a very loving and generous church. How can we be more effective in using those gifts to reach our community?”), weaknesses (e.g., “As elders, we seem to be stuck in the role of managing church business rather than shepherding spiritual growth. How can we be better “soul shepherds”?), opportunities (e.g., “Our pulpit minister just resigned. How can we the best person to take his place?”) and threats (e.g., “Our marriages are in trouble. What can we do, as a church, to encourage more intimate and stable relationships?”). The more focused and specific the issue, the more likely it is that the consulting relationship will prove effective. 2. Church leaders—When churches are blessed with elders, they are usually the ones who initiate a consulting relationship and form the primary leadership group with whom a consultant works. However, preaching ministers and staffs, leadership teams (who do the work of elders even if they do not wear the title), and/or deacons can also initiate this relationship. It is important—for a successful and effective consulting relationship—that the leadership of a church (whatever form that leadership takes) have the will and the congregational support to address issues affecting the health, effectiveness, and direction of the church.

Melvin Feller Business Consultants Group Ministries in Texas and Oklahoma. Our mission is to
call and equip a generation of Christian entrepreneurs to do business as ministry. We provide
workshops and resources that help companies discover how to do business God’s way. When
the heart of a business is service rather than self it can be transformed into a fruitful ministry.
“Church consulting” is a process in which church leader’s partner with an outside “expert” to
identify and address issues affecting the health, effectiveness, and direction of the church.
There are some important words in the above definition:
1. Issues—It is often the presence of unusual or challenging circumstances that prompt church
leaders to seek a consulting relationship in the first place. Not all such “circumstances” involve
crises or problems. Sometimes, churches want to grow faster, church leaders desire to lead
better and more proactively, church staff
long to function more cooperatively and
effectively. So, the issues prompting a
consulting relationship can range from
negative to positive, urgent to proactive,
managing crises to building
competencies.
Usually, the issues facing a church tend
to cluster around the classic SWOT acrostic: strengths (e.g., “We are a very loving and generous
church. How can we be more effective in using those gifts to reach our community?”),
weaknesses (e.g., “As elders, we seem to be stuck in the role of managing church business
rather than shepherding spiritual growth. How can we be better “soul shepherds”?),
opportunities (e.g., “Our pulpit minister just resigned. How can we the best person to take his
place?”) and threats (e.g., “Our marriages are in trouble. What can we do, as a church, to
encourage more intimate and stable relationships?”). The more focused and specific the issue,
the more likely it is that the consulting relationship will prove effective.

consultant works. However, preaching ministers and staffs, leadership teams (who do the work

is important—for a successful and effective consulting relationship—that the leadership of a
church (whatever form that leadership takes) have the will and the congregational support to
address issues affecting the health, effectiveness, and direction of the church.
3. Expert—Someone with broad experience working with churches, deep knowledge of
Scripture and church systems, and wide contacts within the denomination or fellowship. This
person must have the ability to listen carefully, focus on core issues, recommend a range of
options, and provide detailed plans for action.
4. Outside—One of my favorite quotes comes from Albert Einstein: “We can’t solve problems
by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” Inviting a stranger into
your church system can be a frightening and threatening thing. But many church problems and
challenges require the fresh eyes, out-of-the-box-thinking, objectivity, and independence that
only an outsider can bring. Churches that are “stuck” need a different kind of thinking.
5. Partner—Consulting is done with churches and church leaders, not to them. It is a
collaborative exercise, drawing from the strengths and gifts of both church leaders and the
consultant. Solutions that are primarily “owned” by the consultant will be short-lived and
shallow. Only a true partnership—involving shared responsibility, work, commitment, and
trust—can result in solutions that are lasting and transformative.
6. Process—Consulting is not an event, it is a relationship, a conversation, an interactive and
evolving collaboration. As such, it usually involves five distinct phases—a discussion that
deserves an essay of its own.

OKOrthopedics
Melvin Feller has brought a lot of value to OK Orthopedics through his custom training
sessions. He tailored his presentations to address our specific process issues and questions. We
have especially found that Melvin Feller is great at matching up the true potential of our goals
with the real life business challenges that are not text book or white paper issues."
D. Dostal, Director of IT
Kreggs Corporation
There are two reasons we will continue to use your organization for supporting our Business
systems. First, the depth and validity of your consultants' knowledge base is exceptional. We do
not have the time or resources to function as a training ground for consultants exploring new
areas. The consultants you have provided to us have been able to make an immediate impact
on our projects. In addition, they have made sure that they left us self-sufficient in those areas.
Second, the value provided by your organization strikes the right balance. Your rates are
appropriately aligned but more importantly, your associates keep a firm understanding of our
needs at the center of their work at all times. They have been excellent at advising us on several
possible courses of action while helping us determine which direction most closely aligns with
our abilities and system plans. We will not hesitate to contact your team for our future Melvin
Fellers work."
We do planning for Business, Nonprofits, Ministries, Directors, Business Leader, Governments
and Individuals.
