Here is a brief list of places where I have found evaluation tools. Many tools I've used, however, were developed from seed thoughts from seminars, class notes, books (such as Gene Getz's The Measure of a Man), or professional magazines. Still others have come via fellow pastors. One interesting source is the "Tests and Measurements" section of a local library, a gold mine of testing instruments that have been designed and used in psychological and management research.
