“Why spend twice the amount of time and money to develop a sub-par residency program from scratch? It’s a waste of your time and your church’s money. LP gives you the coaching and content you need and sets you up as the residency leader to succeed. They’re on your team.”
Brendan Krismer, Executive Pastor/Quad City | Church of 1,200 in Prescott, AZ

“We are in one of the most difficult moments to find, hire and train great leaders in ministry. We have, like most churches, tried every approach possible to meet the growing needs of ministry through staffing companies, websites and internal hires. Leadership Pathway has provided an incredibly intentional process to help us welcome new residents to our ministry and support them with throughout their residency in partnership with our team. We have already hired our first resident to a full-time position, we have a second on-site and hope to add more in the future.”
Phil EuBank, Lead Pastor/Eastern Hills | Church of 1,500 in Denver

“We had been trying to lead a successful residency program for a few years and realized that we needed support and more direction. Lp helped us moved from a 9 month residency to a 2 year residency. We began offering spots to people beyond our local level, and we became more intentional and focused on developing future church through their coaching. If you need help finding residents, being supported, and given direction and coaching through the process from people who have experience then Leadership Pathway is the right step for you.”
Tammy Medders, Executive Pastor/New City |Church of 1,400 in Charlotte

“If you're development-minded, and looking to invest in young leaders based on the potential of their impact on the Kingdom of God, Lp is great first step. Especially if you're overwhelmed at how to structure, organize, and locate potential residents. Lp takes the mystery out of the process in placing your first resident on the team!”
Justin McPeak, Executive Pastor/Thunder Mountain | Church of 500 in Sierra Vista, AZ

“The structure to develop was handed to us on a silver platter through the LP Guidebook and regular coaching calls. Our investment in residents is considerably higher, both personally and professionally.”
Jacob Lambert, Former Student Pastor/Waters Edge | Church of 1,500 in Yorktown, VA

“I invest in the next generation because someone invested in me when I was that age. We’re now looking for our seventh resident at HouseRight.com. It is hard work, but the payoff has been big for us as well as churches like Southland, Crossroads and LexCity where we embed residents from our team.”
Matt McKay, Founder/HouseRight.com | Lexington, KY

“Leadership Pathway is a fantastic catalyst to the growth of any future/growing leader. I've gained great insight into leading a person in who is in a different life stage and rapidly growing his skill-set in a different generation.”
Chris Riddle, Worship Pastor/Crossroads Central KY | Church of 20,000 in Cincinnati, OH

“Leadership Pathway has made our search for a quality, ministry minded Worship Leader Resident stretch far beyond anything we could have done on our own. Lp gives a clear and thorough resume of each candidate they represent. In each candidate packet, they include pictures, videos, written references, personality tests and even strength and weaknesses. You know who you are getting before any formal interview. Leadership Pathway is worth the investment to get access to the best up and coming worship leaders out there.”
Ryan Van Kirk, Worship Leader/Residency Director Perimeter Church | Church of 5,500 in the Atlanta area

 “My experience with Leadership Pathway is nothing but positive. Dave Miller and his team are professional, point on, and answering God’s call to fulfill a BIG void in the church world. We have had two residents already placed at our church and are looking for one additional resident. We are raving fans!” 
Dr. Virgil Grant, Senior Pastor/Eastside Community Church | Church of 1,000 in Richmond, KY

“Despite our size and limitations, Dave and Leadership Pathway stepped in to help us find someone qualified for the job. The real value of Leadership Pathway came six months later when I was facing growing pains with the resident. Dave stepped in and helped coach me through a difficult situation. Dave took what I thought was a hopeless situation and helped me realize a simple solution. The solution is still playing out, and change is already noticeable. Before, I thought Leadership Pathways was for training the young and inexperienced for a future ministry. Now I realize it is for the the ministry supervisors too. Thanks again, Lp!”
Jim Allen, Senior Pastor/First Southern Baptist Church | Church 100, Pearlington, MS

I recently met a young future leader who is 22 years old and has a fire in him to serve God and preach His word. As he told me of his frustrations of finding a place to serve and grow it was like deja vu. I felt the same way before I found out about Leadership Pathway. I did not hesitate to tell him all about Lp and all the great things it has done for me. He should be applying soon if he has not done so already. I pray that you help him in the same way you did for me and are able to find him a residency. If I can be of assistance in anyway let me know!
Cameroon Lawson Resident at Liberti Church Philly

"Leadership pathway has been a huge help in launching our residency program. They provide a framework that has helped us successfully recruit, train and lead or residents."
Mitch Comstedt, Next Steps Pastor/Rocky Mt Christian | Multi-Site Church of 2,000 in Denver

“Lp genuinely cares about the Church and it’s future leaders. They equip the young people going through the program, as well as the churches partnering with them for success. They are passionate, intentional, and strategic. LP is an experience where young people can safely learn the skills needed to make an impact on God’s Kingdom for years to come. The more future church leaders that encounter LP the better.”
Luke Robison, Worship Pastor/Centerburg Church of Christ | Church of 600 in Centerburg, OH

“We know we couldn't do this without LP...the hours they pour into researching and vetting candidates (we are looking for number 8!) frees us up to do what we do best. Once we get a Resident, we have the confidence to know that they have spent hours looking at applications, calling references and talking with potential residents. All the leg work is done.”
Ron Leach, GM of Culture and Ops | HouseRight.com in Lexington, KY
