Work With Jason
Facilitation and strategic support for Christian organizations
I help Christian organizations navigate present and future challenges by rethinking leadership, formation, and strategy.
When an important decision, upcoming transition, or organizational challenge requires clearer thinking, I help leadership teams surface what matters, hear perspectives that may be missing, and identify a constructive path forward.
Leadership Team Facilitation
Make progress on an important decision, transition, or challenge
A focused facilitated session gives your leadership team the structure to speak openly, examine assumptions, identify overlooked issues, and establish a shared path forward.
I design each half-day or full-day session around the specific needs of your organization.
Your engagement includes
- A pre-session consultation with the organizational leader
- A customized agenda and facilitated process
- A written summary of key themes and decisions
- Recommended priorities and next steps
- A follow-up leadership debrief
Engagements start at $2,000*.
Travel and accommodation are additional
Strategic Challenge Engagement
Understand what is keeping your organization stuck
Some challenges require more than a single facilitated session. Over four to six weeks, I work with leaders and stakeholders to identify the factors contributing to a strategic or organizational challenge, uncover perspectives that may not be reaching the decision-making table, and develop practical recommendations.
Your engagement may include
- An initial leadership consultation
- A customized stakeholder survey
- Individual interviews
- Analysis of recurring themes, tensions, and opportunities
- A written report of findings and recommendations
- A presentation and leadership debrief
Strategic Challenge Engagements start at $7,500* and are priced according to scope.
Travel and accommodation are additional
Speaking and Workshops
Thoughtful, practical conversations about Christian leadership and the future
I offer keynotes, seminars, and workshops for theological schools, Christian higher-education institutions, denominations, ministry organizations, and leadership gatherings.
Drawing on my research, institutional leadership, pastoral experience, military chaplaincy, and published work, I speak on topics including:
- Rethinking Christian Leadership Formation
- The Future of Christian Higher Education
- The Future of Christian Ministry
- Leading Critical Thinkers
- Building Strong and Cohesive Leadership Teams
- Why Christian Higher Education Leaders Should Understand Bi-vocational, Multi-vocational, and Co-vocational Ministry
- The Growing Case for Co-vocational Ministry
Speaking and workshops start at $1,500*.

Start With a Conversation
You may know your organization needs an outside perspective before you know exactly what kind of engagement would help.
Tell me what your leadership team is facing. We can discuss the situation, the people who need to be involved, and whether facilitation, a strategic challenge engagement, or a workshop would be the best fit.
There is no obligation to proceed.
