Part 2: Close Up Radio Spotlights Keith and Esther Edwards of Enjoy the Journey

Fairfax County, VA -- Keith and Esther Edwards operate Enjoy the Journey Leadership Coaching and help others lead more optimally, peeling away the layers of the onion so to speak, and guiding them to discover their deepest purpose and strengths. These pastors turned coaches offer a sacred space where ministers can process their own values, challenges, and next steps. They often ask questions like: How can you walk confidently in the gifts and calling God has given you? What challenges hold you back becoming all that God created you to be?  Ministers take on many roles like shepherd, teacher, leader, counselor, manager, CEO, CFO, volunteer coordinator, visionary, theologian, community partner, etc. It goes far beyond their seminary training. It is not difficult to see how a minister can become overwhelmed and lose the sense of why they got involved in ministry in the first place: to love people and help them grow in the grace and knowledge of God, and  to serve those around them.

The Edwards team have found coaching to be a powerful tool to come alongside ministers and leaders with the support and encouragement to be resilient in the face of rapid cultural changes.

As Keith and Esther Edwards continue to grow their practice, they aim to develop relational networks for their coach approach, identify and move on future possibilities, and build on the context of community. Esther is also looking into a new branch of coaching work. that helps ministers in midlife to transition well.

This wonderful pair of ministers and coaches have much more wisdom to share. Be sure to hear their ideas on the two upcoming radio shows.
