Youth Ministry Coaching for BCI Churches

In addition to the luncheons, Jonathan also offers free Youth Ministry Coaching Calls for BCI churches. These one-on-one conversations are an opportunity to ask questions, receive practical feedback, and be encouraged in your local ministry context.

One Iowa volunteer youth leader shared, “I heard that Jonathan was available to help, but I thought he wouldn’t have time for or be applicable to the volunteer youth guy at a small church. I was wrong!”

Whether you serve full-time, part-time, or as a volunteer, these resources are designed to strengthen and support your ministry!
