“I felt heard, understood, and accepted…”
Toni T.
Christian Counselor
We were married in 1986, but our individual ministry began before that as we were both involved as leaders in ministry to children and students. Dave has been the Lead Pastor at New Life for over 30 years and Gena has been the Executive Director of a Pregnancy and Health Center for nearly 15 years. Through our decades of ministry, we have been privileged to walk alongside many pastors and leaders to encourage, support, and listen with empathy.

Our Four Quadrants of Care
Through decades of experience and training, we can coach leaders in the planning and execution of a sabbatical plan. We have also learned the pitfalls surrounding a sabbatical and how to navigate through those.
Sabbatical Coaching
and Support
We desire to come alongside pastors, missionaries, and Christian leaders to help them move towards greater spiritual health and to grow in connection with Jesus.
Spiritual Direction
and Coaching
and
GROWTH
Our experience leading a large church and a NPO for over 30 years has given us a unique perspective on the health and sustainability of organizations. Our desire is to “travel together” with churches, missions, and Christian non-profits to help them create cultures and systems that lead to health for everyone, including the leader.
Organization Consulting
We are available to speak at church services, staff and leadership gatherings, lead retreats, and more. With over 30 years of communication experience, we bring insight, humor, authenticity, and Biblical integrity. We also have a host of resources available.
Retreats and Speaking
Serving as a pastor, I found myself constantly giving. When the demands became overwhelming, I turned to Dave for spiritual direction. Dave, with his Christ-centered care, has become Christ’s ambassador to me. Each time we meet, my faith in Jesus is reinvigorated. I highly recommend any pastor to Dave. Spiritual direction is one of the most important soul care practices I have in my life.
"Each time we meet, my faith in Jesus is reinvigorated."
Rob
Pastor
Gena has this gentle way of hearing what I'm saying while listening to God and then ministering His empathy, wisdom, compassion, and grace to me. I have never once felt judged or criticized. Instead, I have felt heard, understood, and accepted when meeting with Gena, both by her and by God.
