WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:
Tom and Lindsey, Co-Pastors (1000+ in worship)
“Every year we go to several pastor training and church development. conferences, where session leaders are pushing worn out ideas and trying to sell their books. In our experience, after 16 years of ministry, there is nothing like Damascus Road. It’s unique, transformative and innovative. Over the last 18 months, under the guidance of the workshops and weekly coaching sessions (which often are for both of us, the most important hours of the week), our church attendance has grown from 270 to over 1,100. More importantly, more than ever, we’re significantly impacting the lives individuals and families throughout our city, experiencing the joy of knowing God more deeply and helping those in need.”
Deven, Senior Pastor (12,000+ in worship)
“We’re done with consumeristic, narcissistic Christianity. Our city needs Jesus and the transformation He can bring to it. We want to be agents of the Gospel, transforming lives and bringing good out of evil. I have laid hold of the mission of Damascus Road—to create thriving churches that are centers for faith, transformation and impact…. The workshops were planned and delivered with care and passion. The team discussions guided our brainstorming, learning and planning. For our church and leadership team, and personally for me, your guidance has deepened our faith, got us focused on a much clearer purpose, helped us launch new initiatives, and significantly raised the level of joy and excitement throughout our church.”
Kory, Pastor (200 in worship)
“Including seminary and 20 years of pastoral ministry, also including the many conferences and continuing education classes I’ve attended, the Damascus Road program and coaching have provided the best training and personal support I’ve ever experienced. The impact on me and our church is profound.”
