Consulting & Coaching
LOVEboldly’s consulting and coaching practice is based on contextual ministry and ministry as praxis. We want to understand your motivation, context, and environment for ministry as a part of consulting, coaching, and working with you. Where possible, part of our process will be visiting your congregation or organization, seeing buildings and spaces, reviewing policies and publications, experiencing worship, talking to people in leadership, and talking to your members and visitors. While not required—consulting and coaching can be conducted completely remotely—this context is important for a strong and collaborative process.
Which one is right for you?
