Tampa Church Growth

Coaching Community 2009

The Tampa Church Growth Coaching Network is a relationship based coaching network for pastors seeking to break the 125, 250, 500, 750 & 1000 attendance barriers. The heart of the Network is found in a group of 12-15 pastors meeting together monthly for training, coaching and networking.

The Coaching Network will follow the outline of the 9 Growth Barriers and 8 Growth Systems as taught in the workshops led by Nelson Searcy and will be customized according to the specific needs of those accepted.

Nelson Searcy will lead the Tampa Coaching Network. Nelson is the Lead Pastor of The Journey Church of the City in New York City, a mult-site, multicultural church that he started in 2002 which has grown from 2 people to over 1200 attending each weekend with over 1300 in small groups. He is the author of 3 books and over 60 church growth resources. An in demand church growth coach, he has coached over 175 pastors since 2004, many of who have doubled in size and several that have grown from a few hundred to over 1000+ in attendance. His coaching networks fill up fast and often have long waiting lists. Prior to coming to NYC, he was the founding director of The Purpose Driven Network at Saddleback Church with Rick Warren.
