God designed His Church to be the agency of His Kingdom. Therefore, it remains imperative that church leaders do all possible to assure the health of the local church. One starting point for church health is to examine the metaphor used by the Apostle Paul in four of his epistles, the church as the body of Christ. This project brings contemporary thought to the concept of the body of Christ by applying systems thinking to a local church in order to establish long-term health for Northland Community Church in Monument, Colorado, a church that had previously closed its doors due to a leadership crisis. This project begins by examining Paul's metaphor of the body of Christ and then explores the current literature in the field of systems thinking. The results of the research gleaned from these two subjects then synthesizes into a field project. The field project entails a three-fold process, beginning with the leadership team of Northland Community Church gathering in a retreat setting for the purpose of gaining an understanding of systems thinking. This is followed by a sermon series on the body of Christ to lay a foundation for systems thinking for the entire congregation. Finally, curriculum that explains the systems of Northland Community Church is developed for current and future congregants, which will be taught in annual membership classes. The results of this project provide a sustainable, long-term plan for the health of our local church.
