As church leaders we face many
obstacles and challenges in the day-to-day, but we realize one
thing: in the end we want to bring more people to Jesus Christ.
Obstacles and challenges get in the way of this goal.
Among those challenges are: leadership struggles, funding problems, staffing
and facility difficulties, and understanding your mission, just to name a few. At times Denominational Leaders will undermine and sabotage your efforts.
These are the very things that led Jeff Patton to become a church consultant.
Jeff's mission is to help pastors, church planters and key leaders get beyond the day-to-day
struggles, capture a larger vision and grow their congregations. Jeff is also passionate about helping pastors and church leaders who have been targeted by denominational officials.
Jeff Patton has a proven track record of 33+ years working with congregations and
helping them change, revive and thrive. If you want to experience the impact that
Jeff Patton can have on your church, please email Jeff at
jeff@jhpconsulting.com .
Jeff looks forward to working for and with you as we empower the church of Jesus
Christ to do "greater things" in Jesus name.

At one charge I was appointed to I did what I always did, change the locks.
