We all have professional habits that we’d like to change. Perhaps there’s a spiritual discipline we want to explore but need help finding the time and encouragement. Or maybe you’d like more balance in your ministry work life. A coach can help you discern your desires, make a plan, and keep you accountable.

Pr. Ann Kelly found coaching to be a help in changing her unwanted work habits: Working with a ministry coach helps me develop my thoughts and actions to move forward in my life and ministry. My coach listens deeply and asks powerful questions that draw out my best ideas to form and implement my plans. This coaching relationship is a safe place for me to develop strategies for leading my congregation’s staff and lay leaders.
