Step across the ragged edge of conventionality and reimagine how to live, love, and lead in the way of Jesus
The turmoil in our cultural and spiritual landscape can be disorienting and disillusioning. We can help you discover new ways to live out your faith, cultivating authentic community.
Our coaching, spiritual direction, and teaching have been shaped by decades of on-the-ground experience in diverse settings across the world. We have accompanied thousands of people who have stepped out of the confines and comfort of what they have always known and into a sacred – and sometimes scary – spiritual wilderness. Each of us has stepped across that threshold and into a new way of living out our faith. We’ve given our lives to help others navigate their way through the shifting tides of culture to cultivate a refreshed faith and life-fueling community.
