1.) What's the purpose of the environment?
Anyone can steer the ship but it takes a leader to chart the course. Your the leader, so chart.
2.) Who will use the environment?
Who you are is who you attract.
3.) What do we want people to experience?
Christ. . . How? . . . Programming? . . . Small group? . . . This goes back to who are you wanting to reach and how. Do you want the huge service with 500 kids. Or are you okay with 20 kids you go deep with. You can be wide or you can be deep but you can't be both without awesome adults who desire to pour into kids lives.
4.) What do we want people to leave with? (What steps will they take from here? Is there a natural on-ramp or choice of on-ramps for people to consider?)
If every week you present the gospel then there is that possibility that someone is going to open up to it. What is your win? Are you okay with taking the four kids who accepted Christ and mentoring them? Does this strengthen you. How do you feel when you do this. Marcus Buckingham says to write down your strength statements. I feel strong when I... What is that for you? Me personally I'd love for the kids to come listen receive and become part of a family. That we gather together because we love each other, not because of the food or the music. I want them to come to church and say "this is home, this is refuge, now send me out"
5.) Who's responsible for quality control?
Whoever you decide to put in that position.
But please! Build into your leaders. Experience life with them, They may be older than you but there hearts are young. "Noone is going to care how much you know until they know how much you care" and true leaders "touch a heart before they ask for a hand" so whose hearts are you touching.
The leadership excerpts are from the 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership.
