We’re approaching that time of year when ministry leaders begin planning for summer sabbaticals. Unfortunately, I’ve seen pastors come back from their sabbaticals exhausted and not spiritually renewed. Fortunately, with the help of a coach, my sabbaticals have been deeply renewing. I’d love to help you experience a refreshing, insightful, and formative sabbatical.
Endorsements
Jonathan is a great listener and asks the right questions. He helped me get the most out of my sabbatical. He’s been there and gets it. Highly recommend! – Pastor Mark
Jonathan’s guidance helped me move from lamentation to restoration over the course of three months. I returned to ministry refocused and reinvigorated in the calling the Lord had placed on my life—one I had forgotten but rediscovered through his coaching. – Pastor Greg
I offer two main options: a 5 or 3 session coaching.
5 Session Sabbatical Coaching
- (1) Pre-Sabbatical Session (critical for setting up you, your family, and ministry well)
- Will help you communicate with your elder board or leadership team to a) convey value of sabbatical b) help them lead in your absence
- (3) Monthly Sessions (focusing on a key theme each month)
- (1) Post-Sabbatical Debrief (really important for reentering ministry well)
- Will help you reenter with ease and vision
3 Session Sabbatical Coaching
- (1) Pre-Sabbatical Session
- (1) Mid-Sabbatical Session
- (1) Post-Sabbatical Debrief
