Why This Journey Exists
A Deeper Journey with Keith Clark-Hoyos
Church leadership requires both spiritual depth and practical alignment to fulfill God’s call. The Strengthening Spirit-Led Governance & Mission journey, guided by Keith Clark-Hoyos, builds on foundational governance to deepen your board’s capacity for faithful leadership. Using Serving the Call Retreats 1 and 2 (Chapters 1–8) and supported by Embracing Our Call, this program integrates budgeting tools, financial decision-making, conflict resolution, and leadership commissioning. It’s ideal for boards seeking to grow, manage resources wisely, and align their mission with God’s vision. As your consultant, I bring years of experience guiding churches to lead with intention and grace, ensuring your board navigates challenges with unity and purpose. Through prayer, scripture, and practical exercises, we’ll create a governance rhythm that honors God’s call while equipping your leaders for bold, mission-aligned action. Offered as a two-retreat series, a 2-day intensive, an 8-session training, or a customized engagement, this journey adapts to your board’s needs, providing six months of coaching to sustain your growth.
