Pastoral Coaching
Too many pastors are an island unto themselves. They can be overworked, burnt out or in a state of depression with no one to talk to. Dr. Tegelhutter researched this phenomenon in his dissertation and discovered all these things to be true. Relentless Ministries desires to be a resource to encourage pastors to finish their race strong.
You Don’t Have to Carry Ministry Alone
​
Ministry leadership is a sacred calling — and it can also be deeply demanding. Many pastors and ministry leaders find themselves navigating heavy expectations, emotional fatigue, spiritual isolation, or seasons of uncertainty with few safe places to process honestly.
Pastoral coaching offers a confidential, supportive partnership rooted in faith, experience, and practical wisdom. It is a space where you can slow down, speak freely, and regain clarity — without judgment, pressure, or performance.
You don’t need fixing. You deserve support.
​
What Pastoral Coaching Is
​
Pastoral coaching is a faith-centered, relational process designed to support pastors and ministry leaders as they navigate the personal, spiritual, and leadership realities of ministry life.
This is not therapy, and it is not consulting. Coaching creates intentional space to reflect, discern, and move forward with wisdom and integrity — grounded in Scripture and lived ministry experience.
Through coaching, you may:
​
-
Clarify your calling and leadership direction
-
Rebuild healthy spiritual and emotional rhythms
-
Process burnout, transition, or ministry conflict
-
Strengthen leadership confidence and decision-making
-
Cultivate sustainable practices for long-term ministry health
​
How Coaching Works
​
Each coaching relationship is tailored to your season and needs, but typically includes:
​
-
A Trusted, Confidential Partnership: A safe and private space where you can speak openly and be heard without agenda or judgment.
-
Consistent, Flexible Meetings: Sessions are offered weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly — creating a steady rhythm of support that fits your schedule.
-
Scripture-Rooted Reflection: Coaching integrates biblical wisdom, prayerful discernment, and spiritual reflection alongside practical insight.
-
Practical Takeaways: Each session offers clarity, perspective, and next steps you can carry directly into your ministry and daily life.
Sessions are available virtually or in person, depending on availability.
​

​

While every journey is unique, many leaders report:
-
Greater clarity and confidence in leadership decisions
-
Renewed emotional and spiritual energy

Healthier boundaries and rhythms
