You’re not alone in the transition.

Interim and transitional pastoral leadership is a unique call, but you’re not in it alone. Interim By Design offers resources, research, consulting, and coaching to support leaders, churches, and councils of the church in the midst of transitions.

Transition is necessary. Let’s embrace it.

My desire is to help churches and pastors…

 
  • Avoid common mistakes that churches make during transitional seasons.

  • Effectively communicate changes and processes to congregations.

  • Provide experienced counsel on how to journey through a painful transition.

  • Offer tools and resources for continued leadership growth.

  • Allow space and time for congregations and organizations to pursue a healthy call process.

  • Equip new leadership with skills and resources.

  • Help the leadership and the congregation wrestle theologically and practically with how to love one another, how to speak the truth, and how to stay united as a community in Christ.
