20/20 Vision for Life: Empower Your People With a Clear Vision for Their Lives

A 6-week all-church campaign to mobilize your church

One of the most frequent conversations that I have with pastors and leaders is about the feeling of being stuck. More and more energy and resources are being poured into the activity of the church but it is not leading to real church growth.

In only a few short weeks we will be ringing in 2020, a new year and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to talk to your church about vision. One of the realizations that I have come to during my two decades of helping churches pursue clarity is this: our church’s vision is powerless until we empower the personal calling of our people.

About Will

Would you like to fall in love with ministry again?

I want you and your ministry to experience the benefits of stunning, God-given clarity. As a pastor turned vision coach, I’ve worked with an unprecedented variety of churches from growing mega-churches and missional communities, to mainline revitalization and church plants. I started several interconnected organizations that help the church embody the movement that Jesus founded. My visionary planning tools, the Vision Frame and the Horizon Storyline, are used by thousands of churches every year through my calling to raise up other consultants and trainers. In 2004 I started Auxano, which I sold to LifeWay. In 2014, I founded Younique to deliver gospel-centered life design through the church. It is now the world's only comprehensive, open source, life planning system. In 2019, I founded Denominee to help networks and denominations reinvent how they bring value to the church. I've written seven books, including Future Church, Younique, Clarity Spiral, God Dreams, Innovating Discipleship, and Church Unique. I enjoy speaking about how to live a life of more meaningful progress. I live in Houston with my wife, Romy, and I have four children.

I currently work with a small group of churches and leaders. If you are interested in life planning or executive coaching individually or taking your church through a Vision Framing engagement based on Future Church, just reach out to set up a conversation.
