I Want To Thrive!
WELCOME TO THE FULLY FORMED LEADERSHIP JOURNEY
The Truth In Love
It is possible to go through the motions of leadership and not realize how unhealthy you are.
If you’re not growing, you’re dying.
Neglecting your spiritual, emotional, and relational health weakens the foundation from which you lead others.
Failure to mature in your interior leadership sabotages your calling and stunts your impact.
Leadership at the next level entails greater health for greater growth.
“Do not neglect the spiritual gift you received through the prophecy spoken over you when the elders of the church laid their hands on you. Give your complete attention to these matters. Throw yourself into your tasks so that everyone will see your progress. Keep a close watch on how you live and on your teaching. Stay true to what is right for the sake of your own salvation and the salvation of those who hear you.” - 1 Timothy 4:14-16
INVEST IN YOUR INTERIOR LIFE AND LEADERSHIP
...for your sake - and for the sake of those you love and serve.
The Fully Formed Leader Journey is a ten month coaching intensive designed to develop your spiritual, emotional, and relational health so that you thrive in sustainable, long-term leadership impact.
You don’t have to figure out the solution. If you’re looking to level up your leadership, impact lives for Christ, and accelerate the growth of your business, organization, or church - the Fully Formed Leader Journey is for you.
You are not alone. Join a band of like-minded ministry leaders devoted to Gospel friendship, leadership development, and shared learning.
Take the time. Cultivating your interior life and leadership catalyzes your capacity to reach, connect, and empower more people in Gospel mission and ministry.
Honor your calling and better serve those under your care.
“Now with God's help I shall become myself." - Soren Kierkegaard

“I’m very grateful for Matt Kessler’s leadership. His teaching, coaching, and mentoring has helped change my life. Not only do I have a more Biblical understanding of who I am and who God created me to be, but with Matt’s help I also have more clarity around my kingdom calling and contribution. Matt is an extremely emotionally intelligent spiritual leader. He has a genuine concern for others and an extreme passion to help people live out their purpose! Because of his coaching not only did I get unstuck, but I have continued the right direction.”

“Matt combines his gifting as a shepherd and a teacher with engaging interaction to help those he works with understand more about their identity, purpose, and the unique role God has called them to play. Matt empowers people to discover how God has worked in their lives and helps them receive healing from wounds in their past. Through Scripture, reflection, and spiritual guidance - Matt brings to light how God has called each of us to be leaders in our own unique ways.”
