MTD Health Score
Enter numbers without “%” or “$”.
What does this number mean?
Our desire is to create a framework that will assist churches, MTD coaches, and individual missionaries to achieve long term MTD health.
Our working definition for ideal MTD health is a missionary who has enough funds coming in regularly to meet their ongoing ministry needs (including salary and reimbursements) with the addition of a 3-month surplus in their MTD account.
HS>95 – Sustaining.
- In The missionary continues at their ministry assignment and has the peace of mind that their fund-raising status is in a healthy state. However, they are encouraged to “tithe their time” to MTD (primarily toward cultivation).
95>HS>85 – Growing.
- The missionary continues at their ministry assignment, but is tasked to grow their account balance (and/or their current percentage) by “tithing their time” toward MTD with the help of local supervision and/or coaching.
85>HS>75 – Restoring.
- The missionary continues to be released to their assignment, but is directed to designate an increased percentage of their time to MTD.
- In this stage, it is hoped that one will set aside 25% or more of their time for MTD on a weekly basis.
75>HS – Rebuilding.
- A conversation is initiated about fully removing the missionary from their ministry assignment in order to focus on MTD.
