Author – Every Man a Warrior
“The best coaches in life help you become the person God wants YOU to be. Having “coffee with Jesus” may sound trite, but it is the key. Brian and Debi know the real purpose in coaching; helping men and women to uncover God’s agenda for their life. When a man or woman knows and lives out God’s call, only then can he or she truly discover the gladness of heart that emanates from co-laboring with the God of the universe.”
Peter Lopez, Jr.

“Life Coaching has become essential for successful people in all walks of life. It is imperative for every business and ministry leader to find that source, preferably outside of your circle, that you can fully trust and confide in so that you may continue to do the work the Lord has called you to do. Accredited Life Coaches, such as Brian and Debi, are today’s Joshua’s who hold our hands up when the battle looks lost.”
Candice J.
Ministry Leader
Through life coaching I am transformed by being on God’s path instead of my own.
Coaching has brought me an awareness of aligning to God’s will; and has resulted in a healthier, more organized, and productive life. I have learned to ask God each day for His priorities rather than looking at the many tasks that my brain tells me to accomplish. I have learned to check in with God each morning with my task list to talk over with Him as I think about the coming week, month, season, and beyond. I have learned to stop if I feel overwhelmed and check out whether I am following my own voice, someone else’s or God’s voice. With God’s grace and strength, I can make a correction. He does not cause chaos or confusion; nor does He overwhelm me. He equips me and offers me re-direction when I fall into old patterns.
Marty R.
Pastor, Ministry Leader
Coaching has been a wonderful blessing to me in many ways, but the most important thing I have learned is to search for scripture that applies to any situation I find myself in. Starting and ending each day in scripture provides me with spiritual nourishment and has made me stronger in my walk with Christ; and abiding in God’s Word gives me the help I need to manage the pressures of the day. I cherish the focus on Scripture that my coach emphasizes and will always be thankful that I was given this opportunity to grow in my faith.
Sue H.
Pastor, Ministry Leader
I have never had a coach before, and I am now so blessed to have Debi as mine. We have only worked together a few months, but with her gentle guidance, my devotional life has been transformed and my calendar is being tamed. Perhaps most important, she is my safe place, and for pastors, safe places can be hard to find.
Ruth Ann L.
Certified Christian Coach
Debi coached me through a particularly challenging year of life and ministry transition. Her coaching process provided positive focus, offering excellent resources and aiding the exploration of options to address my specific needs. She helped me move forward at a time when I might have easily stalled out, and encouraged me to re-frame difficult circumstances as a venue for learning and personal growth.
Gwen S.
Advisory Council Member
You have been a blessing to help me see areas of life that I waste time and fail to accomplish my goals. When I keep to God’s plan there is a margin for the Holy Spirit to use me more easily. I also appreciate the accountability factor, very much! I can set goals and know that you will be checking in with me, in a most loving way!
Shelley N.
Speaker, Author, Mentor
Debi’s coaching has been instrumental in empowering me to take a long hard look at my life and to see where my priorities were out of line, but thankfully she didn’t stop there. With her guidance, I have learned how to rethink and reorganize my life so I am able to accomplish more for the Kingdom of God without sacrificing my health, relationships, or my integrity. It is crystal clear to me as I look back on the 12+ months of work that there has been a drastic shift in the way I think and even physically feel. I am so thankful for the giftings that the Lord has given her-I have benefitted greatly from them.
Louise M.
Discipleship Ministry Leader
Coaching has helped me discover God’s plan of ministry for me. It has kept me focused and moved me forward much faster than I would have without my coach. It has also helped me learn God’s desire for my life in many areas and helped me to follow His plan for my life.
Peggy M.
Retired and Loving It
Debi coached me the year before I retired and help me discover how I could move into retirement with ease by understanding myself better. She helped me move forward in step by step ways that weren’t overwhelming but very doable. I’m retired now, enjoying the fruits of what she helped me think through and continuing to use what I’ve learned. Thanks again Debi!

Brian came into my life when I was in the midst of a career transition. His blend of spiritual wisdom, business acumen, patience, and ability to tell me things I didn’t want to hear but need to, played a major part in my successes. I’m a better servant of the king, father, husband, friend, and businessman because of Brian. I can’t recommend him high enough!

Aaron and Lyla G.
Young Married Couple
If you are married, Brian and Debi are a great couple to walk along side you and encourage your relationship with your partner to grow. If you are preparing for marriage, they are wonderful people to facilitate conversation and help with the clarity of expectations that often are overlooked by couples looking to be wed. If you are in a relationship, but not ready to tie the knot, Brian and Debi are a beautiful example of Godly love in a relationship and of Godly love towards all of God’s people. If you’re not currently in a relationship, Brian and Debi are sure to walk with you and love you no matter where you are in your life.
Hunter and Megan R.
Young Married Couple
My husband and I had the great pleasure of working with Brian and Debi for pre-marital coaching. The two of us had never thought of pre-marital coaching as something we would “need” to do, but it turned into one of the best decisions we made before our walk down the aisle. The coaching that Brian and Debi gave us; helped us open up conversations we didn’t know we needed to have, and they did it in such a natural and welcoming way that made what might have been uncomfortable topics easy and empowering. We highly recommend Brian and Debi to anyone seeking any level of relationship (or life) coaching.
