Paideia Coaching

Essential Training for Pastors in our Ever-Changing World.

Many pastors passionately begin their pursuit of pastoral work at a young age but lack
a
guiding framework, a coach, and a community.

Paideia Coaching Cohorts offer all three. You receive a playbook for pastoral development, a mentor to guide you, and a group of peers to encourage you in your pastoral journey. You will develop the mindset and competencies necessary for healthy pastoring.

Book a workshop or enroll in a coaching cohort to receive training in the competencies required for pastoring in our ever-changing world.

The playbook has changed. Pastoral work is vital. Yet, it feels like the wins are few and the setbacks abundant.

My goal is to help and encourage you as you continue with your hand to the plow in a dry and hostile field.

Choose from the following workshops:

  • Pastoring in Complexity: With complex problems converging together, what are the skills required for pastoral leadership in our rapidly changing, complex world?

  • Work of the Watchmen: What is going on in the culture around us? Postmodernism, identity, crumbling ideologies. This workshop will provide clarity in how to make sense of the times we are in.

  • The Pastoral Imagination Crisis: What is the work of a pastor? Unfortunately, there are deficient portraits that shape our modern understanding of pastoral work. This workshop will expose those portraits and substitute them with a better, more ancient vision.

  • The Paideia Framework: The need for developing future church pastors is immense. But how do we develop future pastors with the competencies essential for leading in our ever-changing world? The Paideia Framework is a map for developing future church leaders.

For young people who aspire to pastoral work, the road is ambiguous, the task is complex, and training is outdated, out of touch, or out of reach. What is needed is a community, a coach, and a framework for growing into a pastor ready for the challenges of leading in our complex world.

This is the training I wish I had at twenty-two.

Join a Paideia Cohort in which you and a group of peers receive bi-weekly 90-minute group coaching through the Paideia Framework. This includes:

  • The Soul

  • The Mind

  • The Body

  • The Social Life

  • The “Why” of Pastoring | A Theological Framework

  • “What” of Pastoring Theological Framework

  • Ancient Duties

  • Modern + Future Skills

Become a Paideia Coach

The pinch in the pipeline for developing future church leaders is too great, too complex, and requires more mentors.

But when it comes to pastoral work in an increasingly complicated world, where does a mentor begin?

Get trained in the Paideia Framework so that you can be a guide with a clear map to future church pastors.
