Our Testimonials

As a pastor in full time ministry for 20 years, I have found Pastor Serve to be a huge blessing.
Coaching has helped me navigate through some significant challenges in church leadership, but also in my family and relationship with Jesus. I first connected with them while I was preparing to take a sabbatical, and have continued my relationship with them because it has been so helpful. I have served my congregation and staff better because of the investment of Jay Fowler and Pastor Serve!
Brian Blum
Pastor
PastorServe has been very valuable to me in the last year of my ministry.
Through one of their coaches I was able to find the confidence and courage I needed to continue in ministry. Not only has the ministry of PastorServe been a blessing to me and the church they have also been a blessing for my wife and our marriage. I appreciate how they care about a lost and broken world and their desire to help pastors and churches reach their full potential.
Devin Wendt
Minister
PastorServe truly lives up to its name.
They serve pastors so that they can better serve the Lord. They are honest and insightful. Listening and implementing the advice given by these consummate professionals benefits the person and the Kingdom. I could not have more love and respect for my coach (Wade Brown) than I do. I highly recommend this organization and pray that other pastors find this resource so that they can finish strong.
