The 80/20 Challenge was created by Pastor Josh Hotsenpiller. Recalling the 80/20 Rule, a lesson learned in a Business Management class (which states that 20% of the people own 80% of the wealth), it occurred to Josh that the 80/20 Rule might actually play out in the church community in terms of the vision, volunteer efforts, and financial commitment of the members.
Unfortunately in the typical local church, 20% of the people tend to own 80% of the vision, volunteer efforts and financial commitment. There is no question that the challenge in most churches is to reverse the typical 80/20 trend, resulting in an increased number of people actively participating in ministry.
Using his software background Hotsenpiller set off to build an easy to use, online software tool that would empower people to become owners of the vision in their church.
In just a short period of time, many churches have begun to take The 80/20 Challenge and have discovered this simple truth: When empowered pastors lead empowered people the local church cannot be stopped!
