Healthy Pastors. Growing Churches. A Future You Enjoy
What if the breakthrough your church needs… starts with you?

This isn’t another event. It’s a growth accelerator, a leadership reset, and a brotherhood of high-capacity leaders building something that lasts.

What You’ll Get:

Investment: $4,000 per church

Four Intensive Gatherings

1. February 2 – Rhythms & Rest
Healthy churches start with a healthy pace.
 
We’ll do a deep dive into the natural rhythms of church life, what creates momentum and what quietly kills it. You’ll gain clarity on sabbaths, sabbaticals, and how to lead at a pace that’s effective and sustainable, for you and your church.
 
Evening Experience:
       • Men will experience a full Russian Banya night: cold plunges, a 230° sauna, grilled salmon, fresh fruit, pastries, and drinks. It’s the kind of reset you didn’t know you needed… and won’t ever forget.
       • Wives will enjoy a relaxing spa night and dinner with Tatum, designed to refresh both body and soul.
2. May 4 – Church Health & Physical Health
Lead strong. Live strong.
 
We’ll deep dive into the 10 Secrets of a Healthy Church, helping you evaluate what’s working and what’s stalling your growth. 
 
Then we’ll shift the focus to your health. Tatum and I are bringing in our certified personal trainer who’s transformed our journey. Each person will receive:
 
            • A custom workout plan
            • A macro-based nutrition strategy
 
Evening Experience:
A relaxing dinner and prophetic encounter. Our Prophet-in-Residence, Bob Hazlett, will speak over each pastor and spouse. This will be an unforgettable night of clarity, encouragement, and confirmation.
3. August 2–4 – Spirit, Strategy & Systems
Three days to refuel your spirit, sharpen your strategy, and strengthen your systems.
  •  August 2 – Bonus Night: Pursuit
You’re invited to join our powerful Pursuit Night, a Spirit-led encounter filled with worship, miracles, and breakthrough. 
  •  August 3 – Strategy & Systems
We’ll dive deep into the strategies and structures that help high-capacity churches move from stuck to scaling. You’ll learn how to:
            o   Fund the vision and increase generosity
            o   Implement proven systems that scale
            o   Build clarity and confidence around finances
                       • Then, we’ll shift the focus to your financial health. Eric Marsh (CEO of $2.3B company) will lead personal coaching on: Retirement and investment planning. Structuring your portfolio for growth, stability, and legacy
 
             o   Evening Experience:
Dinner + connection at TopGolf, a fun, laid-back night to unwind.
 
  •  August 4 – Culture That Multiplies
You’ll get a front-row seat to Life Fellowship’s All-Staff Development Day, an inside look at how we develop leaders and build a contagious team. It’s our secret sauce.
4. November 2 – Vision, Leadership & Legacy
See further. Lead bolder. Build what lasts.
 
This final gathering is hosted by David Craig, developer of a $5B+ master-planned community. This day will expand your vision and faith for what’s possible.
 
We’ll explore how to:
• Bold, God-sized vision casting
• Make courageous leadership moves
• Build systems that multiply people, not just manage them
 
Evening Experience:
A final celebration dinner at E&G Brazilian Steakhouse, honoring all that God has done and looking ahead to all that’s still to come.
