HOW IT IBENEFITS YOUR CHURCH: “Disciple every church member, regardless of church size. NextSteps assesses spiritual maturity, and helps to equip every disciple with discipleship support specific to each person’s developmental needs.


Our assessment program includes a Mass-Email Invite System. You simply paste-in the email addresses of the people you wish to assess…and hopefully this is everybody in your church…and they then receive a secure email invite labeled with your ministry name. Each person proceeds to create their own user accounts and from there to complete their personal assessments. It is truly that easy! In fact, a mega-church can have the majority of their congregation assessed within only a few weeks. This is the only “work” you have when using AssessME.org. We designed our platform to free you to work with people, not software. View our sample “Demo Ministry” email invite below…

User Invite Email Message

AssessME.org will auto-send reminders to your people if they have incomplete assessments, or need to retake the NextSteps assessment. In this way, the software manages your people for you. Again, we designed AssessME.org to let you work with people, not software!

BIG NEWS! In January 2024, after 21-years of serving churches, we launched a brand-new version of our software platform. AssessME.org now offers markedly improved reporting features, it is completely mobile friendly and includes a new assessment for tracking discipleship! Lord willing, these updates will enable AssessME.org to help your church manage your volunteers and disciple-making for the next twenty-one years!

We offer an optional data integration between Church Community Builder and our Volunteer Mobilization Program (Excludes NextSteps data integration). Activating this option eliminates all manual administration of your people’s mobilization assessment information. How? Well, your people’s mobilization assessment results will auto-populate within their CCB “My Fit” fields. This integration program runs invisibly in the background, requiring no administration. This optional integration is available for a one-time setup fee of $125.00. | Log In to Order |

Planning Center Online is a very popular Church Management Solution (ChMS). This popularity is due to its low cost and modular options. This is why AssessME.org now offers an optional data integration with Planning Center (NOTE DATA EXCHANGE INCLUDES: Mobilization Assessments + NextSteps Discipleship Tracking). Please review the screenshots below to see how our data displays within the Planning Center Online software. | Log In to Order |

Equipping Books for Church Staff

Become highly effective at disciple-making & disciple-mobilization!
Active Discipleship book authored by David A Posthuma of AssessME.org, helps with the discipleship aspect of volunteer management within a church.
Made for a Mission book authored by David A Posthuma, published by CLC Publications. Equips church leaders for highly effective volunteer management.
eShift book authored by David A Posthuma, published by CLC Publications. Transform your church culture to become highly effective at volunteer management.
What Leaders Say About eShift..

LEONARD SWEET: “I expect this book to stir controversy, but of the best sort: Eye-opening and mind-altering perspectives on what it might mean for the church to embrace the internet today as the primary delivery system for learning and faith development as our Protestant ancestors adopted the book as their primary delivery system in the Reformation Church.”

Leonard Sweet
Best-selling author
Professor (Drew University, George Fox University)

DAN WEBSTER: “The church has been choking for decades on the naive assumption that the world hasn’t changed. eShift provides the necessary Heimlich Maneuver to clear her throat so that the fresh air of life and relevance can return. If you are over 40 this writing will be a wake-up call. If you are under 25 you will shout Hallelujah that someone has finally stated things as they truly are. Either way, eShift is a gift to the church. Let’s hope it’s one that is opened and applied, not ignored.”
