About True Course Ministries

At True Course, we understand that for the life of a congregational leader, internal church dynamics, team and staff conflict, and seven-days-a-week work schedules can all be just as much a part of your daily routine as the time you that you passionately devote to spiritual discipleship, sermon preparation, and Biblical studies for your church community. As much as seminary may have prepared you theologically and academically for your role as a minister, many congregational leaders admit to feeling overwhelmed by the daily administrative and organizational tasks that require constant attention, efficient problem-solving abilities, and dynamic leadership. We realize that your desire to obtain a healthy ministry-life balance and lead well within your congregation is a difficult journey to chart on your own.
