Recent Stats on Pastors
60% Doubt Calling; 43% Feel Lonely; 33% Consider Quitting; 18% Consider Self-Harm
There are many joys in shepherding and caring for the church and community. It is amazing to see the Holy Spirit transform the lives of those in your care. But as the statistics above prove, it can come with a lot of pressure as well. While these statistics are alarming, we can relate to the immense pressure on pastors and their families. The Apostle Paul spoke of this in 2 Corinthians 11. He discusses the persecutions he encountered while preaching the Gospel and in v. 28 he says, “And, apart from other things, there is the daily pressure on me of my anxiety for all the churches.” This pressure on pastors and church leaders is difficult. That’s why it must be something you are called to so that God’s grace can help you through it.
After ministering as full time pastors in a church for 27 years and being traveling pastors the past few years, we can relate to the joy and hardship that pastors and their families experience. It is because of this that we have felt called to come alongside pastors, families, and ministry teams to help develop, coach and encourage them. We’ve been doing this for many years and it’s something we feel called to.

May God give you the anointing and peace to be healthy and lead well!

OUR APPROACH
With 43% of Pastors feeling lonely and isolated, it’s important for them to find someone unbiased they can talk to. We do not function as counselors but as consultants and coaches to help bring out the most potential in people and teams. For this to happen, we focus on the following for coaching:
DNA AND DESTINY
Every leader called by God has a DNA and destiny, we love to discover how someone is wired and what God has in store in for them!
We listen and take a lot of notes to understand the calling and drive, the individual goals, and the obstacles in reaching them
Personal surveys and questionnaires will also be used to guide our discovery process
The discovery process is not only good for us to understand but great for a leader to understand themselves
ACTION PLAN
Once we understand the objectives together, we work on an action plan to accomplish those goals
We will continuously look to the Word and Holy Spirit for guidance as we work through the action plan
Ongoing coaching may be needed to keep the agreed action plan on target
Our free Basecamp Discipleship, training for ministry resources will be an ongoing source of inspiration and guidance for ministry leaders
OUR COSTS
Our ministry (Salt & LIght), provides free outreach and mission projects and many free online discipleship resources on our websites. Since coaching and consulting tends to take a lot of focused time we do charge for these services. However, if you or your ministry are in need of our services but can’t afford it, email us and we will come to an agreement. You may also be able to add a line item to your ministry budget for services like ours for ongoing coaching and consulting to keep you and your ministry healthy.
