Coaching Is About You
The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out (Proverbs 20:5).
Sometimes we need solid instruction… many times we just need a safe place to process our own thoughts and ideas. God has placed something deep within you. Once you discover it, you’ll never be the same.
Coaching is About You Becoming Your Best You
Take a moment to consider what becoming your best self would look like, feel like and act like. That’s what coaching is all about. This isn’t training or therapy. It’s about becoming that person who you know wants to come into full existence. This can take place on an individual basis, as a couple or even in a group with others of the same interest. The goal is always the same: making fresh discoveries as you take purposeful steps toward the goals that will bring the greatest fulfillment to your life.

About Me
I am blessed to call Christy my beautiful bride, of 31 years. We have three sons; Tyler (wife, Kenna), Josh and Jacob. I am privileged to serve as Lead Pastor at Tulsa Hills Church of the Nazarene (Tulsa, Oklahoma) since 1999.
I am also on a journey much like yours. Since 1991, I have encountered people with the same question time and time again; “What does God have me here for?” The result of that question has led me to a variety of discoveries about God, ourselves and the decisions we make on a daily basis. As a Christian Life and Leadership Coach, I am excited to partner with you in discovering God’s answer to that central question.
