Life Coaching Method

There is a connection between how we see ourselves and how we relate to others. This affects our relationships with family, friends, and coworkers every day. When we dare to love and trust others, we give them power to enrich us but also to hurt us.

What do I do when I am hurt?

Do I choose never to love and trust again, becoming isolated and lonely? 

 Do I allow anger and bitterness to destroy my self-image and the relationships that were once important to me? 

Or is there another option?

Priest. Pastor. Administrator.
Life Coach.

Since 1982 I have served in Christian ministry as pastor/priest, missionary, missions administrator, and seminary professor. My wife and I have lived and served as members of evangelical Protestant and Orthodox Christian communities in various parts of the world.  So, why Life Coaching now? Good question!

Coaching helps me to be present and available to YOU. To listen–really listen–to you, giving my full and undivided attention, without trying to solve, fix, or be distracted with my own agenda. No shame. No judgement. No condemnation.

This kind of listening is one of the greatest gifts one person can offer another. It is a personal gift of mind and heart, and it is rare. The art is in the questions that come from listening well. Coaches listen and then ask thoughtful, intuitive questions based on what we hear and feel, and then we listen even more intently. The questions and responses can bring clarity and new options. They will help you identify what you really want, what it may cost you, and whether it is valuable enough to pursue. This is synergism. This is Synergy Life Coaching.

Quotes From Great Coaches

A good coach can change a game.
A great coach can change a life.
John Wooden
UCLA Basketball Coach
1948--1975
The battle in this world, the struggle, is not between structures and systems, political or economic. People like that idea. No! The struggle is personal. It is the Spirit of God and the spirit of evil. From that point of view...every personal victory over evil, maybe even unknown to the world, has an impact on the whole situation.
Fr. Alexander Schmemann +1983
This life is given to us for our healing. Do not waste it on anything else.
St. Isaac of Syria

Thriving in Ministry: Clergy/Clergy Wives Peer Learning Groups

November 1, 2022

Thriving in Ministry Founding Synergy Life Coaching prepared me for yet another ministry opportunity. This past summer (2022) Mka. Rozanne and I were invited to join the Thriving in Ministry (TiM) team as facilitators for Clergy Peer Learning Groups (Fr. David) and Clergy Wives Peer Learning Groups (Mka. Rozanne).
