Coaching to Help Pastors and Leaders Excel in Their Ministry

Our coaches guide you through the highs and lows of launching a life-giving, multiplying church.

Every Leader Needs a Coach.

Church planting takes determination, strategy, and support. After all, this process is complex, and it’s tough to go at it alone.

Every Timothy needs a Paul in their life. That’s where our coaches can help. As church planters themselves, they bring experience and guidance, asking the right questions as they guide you through the art of church planting.
