Jason E. Mills, PhD
Clearer thinking for Christian Organizations facing change
I help theological schools, denominations, and other Christian organizations navigate important decisions, strengthen leadership formation, and prepare for future vitality.
Through facilitation, strategic engagements, speaking, and workshops, I help leadership teams uncover what matters, address what is keeping them stuck, and determine a constructive path forward.
How Jason Can Help
Support for leadership teams navigating decisions, challenges, and change.
Leadership Team Facilitation
Make progress on an important decision, transition, or organizational challenge through a focused half-day or full-day facilitated session.
Strategic Challenge Engagements
Identify what is keeping your organization stuck and develop practical recommendations through facilitated exercises, surveys, interviews, and analysis.
Speaking and Workshops
Bring thoughtful, practical conversations about Christian leadership, formation, ministry, and higher education to your institution or leadership gathering.
Ministry has become increasingly professionalized
In many contexts, this has unintentionally created a gap between “trained leaders” and everyone else. As a result, many people feel unsure of their role, under-equipped, or excluded from meaningful participation in ministry.
I work with church leaders to rethink leadership formation so more people can participate meaningfully, and perhaps bivocationally, in the life and ministry of the church.
Formation must widen, not narrow, the church
My work challenges assumptions about who gets to lead, how leaders are formed, and what counts as “prepared” for ministry.
I focus on reimagining leadership formation so the whole people of God can participate in the work of the church.
