Executive Pastor Cohort Starts Nov. 5th, 2025

This cohort is designed for Executive Pastors/Second Chair Leaders navigating the complex and often demanding intersection of vision implementation, operations, staff leadership, and church health.

The cohort will begin on November 5th at 2PM-3:30PM EST and continue every 1st and 3rd Wednesday for ten sessions finishing just a little bit before Easter 2026. I’ve set this up in such a way that it does not conflict with any holidays.
