What do I love about coaching?

The thing I love about coaching is partnering with pastoral leaders and transforming their thoughts into achievable goals! I also love developing coaches and coaching networks to serve missional leaders.

Training and real-world coaching experience has helped me to develop a coaching mindset that enables me to serve others best by guiding them to figure out what the Holy Spirit has gifted and called them to accomplish. In the past, I have coached pastoral and missional leaders, and trained new coaches—and would love the opportunity to coach you!

When I'm not coaching or training coaches, I love to travel with friends and family to new places and eat and drink new things.

What do I bring to coaching?

I  currently serve as the Coaching Specialist for Multiply Vineyard and have spent extensive time training as a coach through Logan Leadership, International Coaching, Creative Results Management, and Oxford Brookes University.

Becky Waugman

Becky Waugaman

Associate Pastor of Kids and Youth, Des Moines Vineyard, Des Moines, IA

Becky Waugaman​

What do I love about coaching?

I love how coaching brings the natural and supernatural together - helping us to join God and where he is at work. It’s a safe space to process the many demands of life, get our thoughts clear, and be intentional with taking the next steps in personal development and organizational growth.   “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work…” Philippians 1:6a

Coach training has helped me grow in the art of being present with myself, others, and life in general. In practicing presence, it naturally allows me to be more engaged and fruitful. It’s grown my self-awareness so that I can be wise in decision-making and lead more confidently. It also has revealed the common pitfalls that tend to hijack creative and productive living. 

When I’m not coaching I love to spend time in the great outdoors, staying active, and wasting time with family and friends. 

What do I bring to coaching?

I received coaching training through Coach Approach Ministries and have coached through my own organization, Living In Sync, as well as Flourishing Leaders, Multiply Vineyard, and Moxy Coaching

I have coached a variety of people, life stages, transitions and goals. Church planters, pastors, business professionals, entrepreneurs. I have coached those pursuing a lifestyle change, career change, more work-life balance, leadership development, church/business growth.  I am passionate about pastors and have a sweet spot in my heart for women leaders.

Areas of Expertise:

  • Relational Dynamics of Leadership

Stephen Vandop

Pastor of Community & Men’s Ministry, Columbus Vineyard, Columbus, OH

Stephen Vandop

What do I love about coaching?

I love assisting people to become unstuck by unpacking a dream or goal and then developing the next steps toward making that goal a reality.

Coaching has helped me become a far better listener. Additionally, my capacity to ask open ended questions that enable a client/coachee to explore their ideas more deeply has greatly improved. Finally, it has assisted me to choose one of many goals and focus on developing the next steps that I need to take given the available resources and time at hand.

When I'm not coaching, I enjoy gathering with my family and playing with my grandchildren. I also enjoy both the visual and performing arts. A good story always intrigues me whether in a movie or a good book. I enjoy mowing hiking trails on fifty acres that I own. There is a 1968 Massey Ferguson tractor that I tinker with and keep running by the grace of God. I like to work out daily and try to get outdoors to hike, camp, fish or generally enjoy solitude and silence as often as I can. 

What do I bring to coaching?

I have been trained in coaching by Case Western Reserve University and Bob Logan, Multiply Vineyard, and Flourishing Leaders. I have done coaching for 14 years.

I have coached church planters, pastors in transition, young adults seeking to explore vocational options, new employees who need to develop work skills, international pastors who are developing economic projects for their community, pastors seeking to develop an aspect of their leadership or new healthy disciplines to sustain them toward healthy engagement in ministry.

I am passionate about starting new churches, church leadership, evangelism, guiding people in their spiritual development through preaching, teaching scripture and spiritual direction. I enjoy encouraging pastors in developing their own spiritual healthy practices to sustain them for the long haul of ministry.

When I’m not coaching I enjoy outdoor activities—biking, hiking, camping, skiing, and gardening. I love working out and staying physically fit. I love family get-togethers, my grandkids and raising puppies!

I love helping people work through their challenges and come up with an attainable action plan. It's great to see individuals making progress towards their goals, and find that helping people work through problems is very rewarding to me!

As a pastor for over 35 years, I have always loved helping individuals to grow into their destiny. I had a “Barnabus” in my life, and I want to be a "son of encouragement" as well. 

My training as a coach has helped me to become a much better listener and to trust the Holy Spirit's voice in guiding sessions. I have been privileged to coach potential church planters, senior pastors, area pastors, and an internationally known worship leader. I have also coached clients wanting to start a real estate investment business (which I now do part time).

Donna Ackermann

Church Planter, Vineyard Longmont, Longmont, CO

Donna Ackermann​

What do I love about coaching?

I love coming alongside someone as they discover tools and answers they didn't even know they had! And, seeing God give encouragement to those on the front lines.

I'm a church planter for the second time, and I often stop and "coach" myself, my husband and our interns. Being formally trained as a coach has taught me to learn to ask questions in the middle of chaos or just in the middle of life—a great skill to have!  Also, learning to listen and repeat back what's being said has been so valuable.  

When I’m not coaching I enjoy cooking international food, playing guitar, binge-watching TV series’ like The Voice, or spending time with family.

What do I bring to coaching?

I was recently trained through Multiply Vineyard Laser Coaching, but have over 30 years of ministry experience. I have coached a church planter and a young adult working through life transition.

I love watching the lights go on for the person I am coaching, seeing the Holy Spirit at work as they discover what he is speaking to them.  I enjoy hearing the joy and encouragement they experience when they take action based on what they have sensed God is saying to them. 

Training to be a coach has made me appreciate the art of listening and it's given me a great respect for the way the Holy Spirit works in people's lives in different ways.

What do I love about coaching?

I love that I get to partner with what the Holy Spirit is doing to work in the coachee. I get to see their light bulbs come on and see them work through their questions. I don't have to have the answers, but God always shows up!

Being trained as a coach has given me a new perspective on the value of asking the right questions, and being intentional about letting those questions do what they are intended to do.

When I’m not coaching I love to play pickleball, read on my swing, take walks, play games and enjoy time with my husband, grown kids, grandkids, and friends.

What do you love about coaching?

When I’m not coaching, I like to hike, fish, bike, snowboard, play guitar, listen to music, and pray.

What do I bring to coaching?

I’ve been trained through the Vineyard Coaching Program. My training with the Vineyard has helped understand the nuance between coaching, mentoring and pastoring. It has really helped me fine-tune my listening skills with both the Spirit and the other person. I think my favorite thing about my training is growing in discerning the difference between the person and the issue people are working through. 

I love the process of discipleship, especially in a small group context. I find great joy watching people connecting with Jesus and seeing their faith grow.

What do I love about coaching?

I love affirming how God has designed each individual uniquely and helping people discover not what sounds good or what works for other people, but what works for them, honoring how God has uniquely made them.

Coaching training has helped me become a better listener. It has also opened my eyes to the fact that one solution does not fit all and that the person who has to execute the solution needs to be part of formulating the plan of action.

Jeri Heilmann

Pastor, Vineyard Altoona, Altoona, PA

Jeri Heilmann

What do you love about coaching? 

The thing that I love about coaching is that I get to partner with the coachee and the Holy Spirit to help the coachee get unstuck, and receive revelation. It often feels like a holy space as we unpack and explore their thinking together. Also, I personally love bringing vision to bear in action, so it feels really good to be part of that process with someone. Coaching has helped me in all areas of my life. It has helped me step back, listen well, ask questions and help other people come to solutions for themselves. It also has grown my faith as I have watched God reveal things to people that they couldn’t see before.

When I’m not coaching, I love spending time with my family, perfecting my sourdough technique, thrift shopping, creating functional art, watching the sunrise

What do I bring to coaching?

I have received coaching training through Emotionally Focused and Multiply Vineyard and I have coached business owners, pastors, ministry leaders, and teachers.
