Spiritual Leadership

Hearing God Retreats

Find yourself running on fumes?

Perhaps your energy is gone and God seems silent. Come away and unplug from all the demands and expectations to reconnect with God and gain new perspective through intentional learning experiences. You will position yourself to hear from God. You will enjoy extended blocks of time to rest and reflect on God and His Word.

re:Focus

Find yourself going through the motions of ministry and feeling isolated?

Perhaps things that used to work no longer bring results or fulfillment. Consider refocusing your ministry. This is an intensive and intentional two-year journey involving four retreats and monthly peer group meetings.

Personal Leadership

Find yourself questioning your life? Perhaps it isn't what you always dreamed.

Instead, you find yourself going in all directions. LifePlan, a Paterson Center tool, is a strategic operating plan for individuals. It is God’s plan for a life. It is discovered through a series of guided constructs and conversations that take place over two days.

How can you revolutionize your church's discipleship ministry in six months?

How can you maximize your divine design for a life of significance? Created by Will Mancini and Dave Rhodes, Life Younique is a creative, reflective and action-oriented discipleship experience designed to help you live your life with the stunning clarity that comes from knowing who you are and what God designed you to do.

Discovering that ministry is good so long as you don't have to work with people?

Why don’t people do what they say? Trying to grow people and your church just isn’t working? Coaching equips pastors and leaders with the knowledge and expertise to be an effective leader who helps people discover their path forward and compensate for the missing skills they were unaware they would need in today’s world.

Staff & Team Leadership

Find your staff not communicating and siloing themselves? Seems people are rubbing each other a little raw?

Perhaps they just don’t understand each other. Through leveraging your individual DiSC behaviors, Spiritual Gifts and strengths, your team will come to value each person’s contribution and understand how to bring out the best from everyone.
