About
Welcome
A Church Rated Ministries is the personal ministry of Pastor Chris Byars and the Byars family.
In the ever-changing world that confronts us, the reality is that our God never changes. A Church Rated Ministries grew out of a desire to do ministry differently. Currently, Pastor Chris Byars serves as pastor of St. John's Lutheran Church in Gillett, WI (clockchurch.org). The focus is to develop and grow in a way that is different from the world. The patterns of the world have crept into our congregations, which often creates unnecessary divisions between parents and children.
A passion for Pastor Chris, as a father of six, is to develop a congregation that extends far beyond Sunday morning worship, Sunday School, and Confirmation, but places the focus back on the faith development in families. Many parents may not feel equipped to effectively teach the faith of Christ to their children. We hope to change that.

The desire to grow the Church lives large in the Byars family household, so with a desire to develop materials to help the Church grow and people to be strengthened in faith lives large. One reality of life in our congregations, however, is conflict, so Pastor Byars is also trained as a conflict coach and can help congregations work through conflict. All the facets of life together, raising families of faith, and bringing better resolution to conflict will help in building the Church of Jesus Christ up and draw more into our Lord's peace.
