Jon’s philosophy of coaching is to empower people to achieve their goals and dreams more quickly with the partnership of a coach than they could on their own.

He has accompanied individuals, couples, families, and teams for 15 years as an ELCA pastor in two different congregations, one as a solo Pastor of a congregation worshiping 100 weekly and one as an Associate Pastor for a multi-pastor staff in a downtown urban environment, with membership roles in the thousands, in two very different states.

Though he’s coached all kinds of people, he has a heart and experience personally with the particularities of raising a family of two kids while working in ministry. He specializes in enabling others to practice and implement healthy boundaries.

Currently going through his own transition from being a congregational pastor to becoming a chaplain, Jon also has a heart for those new to ministry or those going through their own career or a vocational transition.

He has completed 40+ training hours in individual and team/group coaching, 50+ coaching hours with clients, and is working toward his first professional coaching credential with the International Coaching Federation.
