Coaching for Church Pastors and Leaders
Church leadership is both a privilege and a responsibility—but it can also be demanding and, at times, isolating.
I provide coaching for church leaders and pastors who need space to step back, think clearly, and navigate complex leadership challenges with greater clarity and confidence.Through church leadership coaching, you can process real situations, gain fresh perspective, and move forward with purpose in the midst of demanding seasons.Support for Ministry LeadershipAlongside coaching, I share practical insights and encouragement to support church leaders in the realities of ministry.
These reflections are designed to strengthen your leadership, sustain your wellbeing, and help you lead with clarity and purpose over the long term.

It is often helpful not to walk it alone.”

About Me
I’m Barry Farmilo, a church leadership coach working with pastors and ministry leaders.
For thirty years I served as a lead pastor in New Zealand; 15 of these years as a C3 Church pastor. I have walked alongside congregations through the many seasons of church life and ministry.Those years gave me a deep respect for the calling carried by pastors and leaders, and for the care they offer their communities.
While ministry is deeply rewarding, it also carries significant demands.I've come to see how important it is for leaders to have space to pause, reflect, and to think intentionally about their leadership and direction.This is why I value coaching - providing a confidential, supportive environment for honest conversation, encouragement, and perspective.If you are looking for that kind of space , I'd be glad to walk alongside you.What else do I doI contribute to the encouragement and development of church leaders through my association with the CENTRE FOR CHURCH LEADERSHIPYou can also explore my YOUR FAITH MINUTE Youtube channel where I share short encouragements for everyday Christian life.
