I am offering a training cohort for no more than 5 individuals who want to provide meaningful leadership for churches in transition. You will learn the art of short-term ministry leadership, how to help congregations through spiritual discernment, how to utilize a coaching mindset for best practices, ideas on preaching and leading, how to handle finances in this role, and much more.

I was stunned into silence, but quickly recovered so I could teach class. Don’t ask me what the lesson was about or anything about how I taught it. That memory never sank in because all I kept hearing were Jim’s words echoing through my mind.
