“Help me, help you!”

This phrase was immortalized by Tom Cruise in the movie Jerry Maguire.  Maguire is a professional sports agent who has one client, wide receiver Rod Tidwell (played by Cuba Gooding Jr.).  In one scene, Maguire is exasperated at the antics of his only client, pleading with Tidwell to understand how hard it is for an agent to land the big contract extension and endorsements for a player.  “Help me, help you!” he repeats, over and over again.

I want to invite you into this journey of coaching and caring for leaders by saying:

“Help me, help them.”

Help me help those in leadership.  

My desire is to guide leaders towards health and wholeness.  

Helping them rediscover the unique design and purpose of their leadership.

So, let me ask you:

What things do you think are needed for leaders to be refreshed?

How do leaders need to receive care?

What do you think is one of the greatest needs for your pastor?

What tools have you used that have helped you discover how you are uniquely made?

What things combined to make you discover your primary calling or purpose?  

What do you think leaders need to guard against that might draw them away from that primary purpose?

Pick any or all of these, and please send me a message…I’d love to know your thoughts!  I want to be well-equipped to help those in multiple spheres of leadership.  

You can also help me help them by giving financially.  I’m currently at 70% of my monthly goal of financial support.  Once I reach the “fully funded” mark, I’ll be able to receive more leaders that are reaching out to Standing Stone for this kind of help.  On a regional Zoom meeting I was on recently, we heard from our area director that they are seeing a marked increase in pastors asking for help on their website forms.

So, help me help them!

I look forward to hearing from you.
