Welcome to the Renegade Pastors Network Overview where you can learn more about Coaching and the benefits that await you when you abandon average and join the coaching network. Coaching is at the heart of what we do for pastors. Nelson Searcy launched the Renegade Pastors Network to help you as a church leader abandon average in your life and ministry. Every coaching level with Nelson has this critical philosophy as its foundation —
“If you want to grow a healthy church and have a happy personal life, look at what the average pastor is doing and do the opposite.”
Each coaching level falls under the “Renegade Pastors Network” umbrella followed by a designation of Silver, Gold, Platinum or Titanium. No matter where you are in your ministry, no matter where you start on the coaching ladder, you will have a clear path to growing as a church leader, and how you can continually move up based on your current coaching needs. Click the tabs to get an overview of each level or click the Next button below to start at the Silver level.

Break Through the Barriers Keeping You from Growing: Join Today to Renegade Pastors Network - Silver
RENEGADE PASTOR GOLD The Growth-Accelerating Level.
Open to Senior Pastors, Church Planters, Campus Pastors and future Lead Pastors
Renegade Pastor Gold level is a growth-accelerating network for those Senior Pastors who are serious about leading their church to its full redemptive potential. Nelson chose Gold for this network because it's proven to be the "keystone" to everything God does through our coaching process. If someone never completes this level, they never really experience all that God can do for them and their church through our coaching ministry.
At the heart of the Gold level is an in-depth focus through 12 monthly coaching sessions on the Eight Systems of a Healthy Church to break through the barriers keeping you from growing.
At the heart of the Gold level is an in-depth focus through 12 monthly coaching sessions on the Eight Systems of a Healthy Church to break through the barriers keeping you from growing.
On-Demand, Online Coaching Available now via a new on-demand, online module format, where you can participate at your convenience each month. Led by Nelson Searcy, this network is based on the 8 Systems of a Healthy Church that he has identified and taught to thousands of churches, through books, resources and live events. You’ll receive 12 online sessions over the course of this network that you can fully participate in anytime. And unlike other networks, you’ll receive both the audio and video. You can access each session through your private Coaching Hub.
You Will Discover And Implement The Eight Systems In Your Church
We will cover each of my eight systems of a healthy church plus issues related to personal development, time management and growth barriers. Here is an outline of what we will cover:
SYSTEMS OVERVIEW:
After gaining a more thorough understanding of each of the Eight Systems of a Healthy Church, you can immediately start evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of your church. You’ll be able to develop a clear and easy-to-implement plan for the rest of your coaching experience.
ASSIMILATION:
Nelson will give you immediate next steps that you can take this Sunday to reach and keep more first-time guests in your church. These simple “Big Rocks” will have you seeing immediate results!
STEWARDSHIP PART 1:
Stewardship is a big system! In this first part of two, Nelson will give you the basic steps that you can take to implement a healthy Stewardship System that is focused on discipleship as the ultimate goal.
EVANGELISM PART 1:
You will learn how to create “Big Days” in your church and how to maximize your preaching through a One-Year Preaching Calendar. This session will immediately relieve your stress of having to plan and prepare from week to week.
EVANGELISM PART 2:
In this second session on Evangelism, Nelson will help you create a culture of Evangelism in your church. If your church has been stagnant for years or is experiencing explosive growth, Nelson will give you the tools necessary to raise the evangelistic temperature of your church.
SMALL GROUPS:
100% participation – that is the goal of this session. What can you do in your Sunday School or Small Groups Ministry that will help you get 100% participation? In this session, Nelson will share how The Journey (and numerous coaching alumni) consistently exceed that goal, regardless of denomination, location or background!
WORSHIP PLANNING:
Regardless of your music, creative elements or traditions, Nelson will give you “Seven Ways to Improve the Quality of Your Worship Service.” PLUS, he’ll share four evaluation questions you can ask yourself and/or your staff every Monday so that you can improve Sunday after Sunday.
STEWARDSHIP PART 2:
In this advanced session on Stewardship, Nelson will give you time-tested tools that have consistently helped coaching alumni increase their offerings by 27%! Plus, you’ll learn five stewardship decisions every pastor should make to lead an effective Stewardship System.
MINISTRY:
Nelson will give you an effective plan to help increase the number of volunteers in your church. You’ll also learn how to “Create a First Serve” opportunity that will motivate your people to serve.
LEADERSHIP and STAFFING:
Staffing can bring the greatest joys and the greatest headaches as you lead your church. Nelson will guide you on avoiding the multiple landmines in leading your staff. Even if you don’t have any staff, these are practical steps that you can take to lead your key leaders.
PERSONAL LEADERSHIP:
You will learn how to create a simple and practical personal growth plan that will help you enjoy your days off, take consistent vacations (where you’re not distracted by ministry) and be more effective each day in your ministry.
STRATEGY:
In this session, Nelson will help you create a church strategy utilizing all the tools that you’ve accumulated during the network. You’ll evaluate the health of each system in your church and what you can do to take them to the next level.
PLUS, you’ll receive a “Coaching Blueprint” that gives you specific next steps. There are “Getting Started” next steps that will help you implement the very basics of the system, an “Intermediate Blueprint” that will guide you to implement beyond the basics, and for Coaching Alumni there is an “Accelerated Blueprint” that will help you go even further with each system! Exclusive Benefits As a Gold member, you receive all the Silver level benefits as well as the growth-accelerating Gold-level only exclusives like special mailings, CDs, priority contact with me and Gold-only discount — in addition to your monthly online systems training. Automatic Upgrade to Platinum Plus, after completing 12 months at the Gold level, you are automatically upgraded to the next level, Platinum and we do our first deep dive into Assimilation (or another system should you prefer).

Your Renegade Pastor Coaching Options (Every Level Includes Silver Benefits)
RENEGADE PASTOR TITANIUM The Highest Level Network.
Limited Size Group (approx. 35 Senior Pastors)
Renegade Pastor Titanium level is the only network featuring in-person coaching with Nelson Searcy: 5 times per year, two days of intensive, personalized in-person coaching. Note: the primary factors in attending Titanium Coaching are not church size or location; it’s your commitment to healthy systems and leading the Renegade Pastor lifestyle.
At the heart of the Titanium level is personalized, in-person coaching with Nelson and access to ALL NEW resources for FREE plus exclusive recordings, training and gifts only provided to Titanium members.
At the heart of the Titanium level is personalized, in-person coaching with Nelson and access to ALL NEW resources for FREE plus exclusive recordings, training and gifts only provided to Titanium members.
In-depth, in-person coaching This is Nelson’s highest level network and the only in-person one he leads. Go deep into each of the eight systems; the lifestyle of a healthy pastor; the latest lessons that are taught nowhere else; plus special guests pop in from time to time like Dr. Elmer Towns, Steve Stroope, Rick Warren, Gary McIntosh, Bob Whitesel, etc. Each month you will learn in great detail one of the eight church systems and how it applies to your church. This will be in much greater detail than covered in the regular networks.
When and Where? The Titanium Network will meet at a resort in or near Orlando, FL. It will meet for two days at a time, every other month. We meet every other month, instead of monthly, as a way to save 50% in travel costs. The times will be 9:30am - 5:30pm (or later) on Day 1, and 9:30am – 3:30pm on Day 2. Most of them coincide with Nelson's other Walt Disney World events, allowing you to maximize your travel and expenses to attend coaching and Nelson's other VIP events.
How Will This Network Be Different? This network is made up of Senior Pastors who have already been through regular networks with Nelson. It’s by invitation only, based on size of church, potential for growth, desire to teach other pastors or lead future coaching networks, and an understanding and commitment to the eight church systems. While there will be elements similar to those in our regular networks (pressure points, book studies, etc.), there will also be a number of new elements (special guest presenters, advanced treatments of each system, “hot seats” to address your specific issues, Nelson's latest teachings and treatment of new issues such as staff, budgeting, multi-site, church planting, etc.). And by completing Titanium Coaching, you’ll be approved as a Coach by Church Leader Insights, and we’ll help you develop your own networks, if you desire to do so.

In fact, anytime during the first three months of the network, Nelson Searcy will refund your investment in full and all documented travel expenses if you just say the word. As you know, Nelson does these networks for the Kingdom results that we’ll see, so he's willing to assume the risk.
