For Pastors
Jackson goes the extra mile and helps me get results! What he shared with me totally transformed my ministry and people see and feel it by the experience they have when they come to my church. If nothing else, everyone needs to read his book, Retaining the Harvest. It will help you fill in missing pieces in your leadership and church experience. It is a must have for your library. I highly recommend you work with Jackson to go to the next level."

If we embrace this truth, we can make the mind-shift necessary to become effective in this season of digital-forward ministry. The strategy of moving your analog ministry (what you did […]
