Welcome to Church Pivvot

reset your church. experience real church growth. fall in love with ministry again.

Based on the book Future Church, the Pivvot Process is a shared experience with your team that will change the trajectory of your church. Our signature service is a 10-session journey with a "future team" that results in a reinvented ministry strategy and new visionary plan. As pastors everywhere wrestle with the disciple-making results produced in recent years, your team will find the opportunity to pivot from "program church only" to real disciple-making growth as one of the most promising and energizing experiences they have ever encountered.

From leading megachurches and new church plants, pastors of all church sizes and contexts are leading with new clarity and confidence. Schedule a call today via email to learn more about how our team can serve you.

If you are one of the church teams currently working with Pivvot, simply text me (281-636-6900) if you have any questions while our user portal and resource site is being updated.

About Will

Would you like to fall in love with ministry again?

I want you and your ministry to experience the benefits of stunning, God-given clarity. As a pastor turned vision coach, I’ve worked with an unprecedented variety of churches from growing mega-churches and missional communities, to mainline revitalization and church plants. I started several interconnected organizations that help the church embody the movement that Jesus founded. My visionary planning tools, the Vision Frame and the Horizon Storyline are used by thousands of churches every year through my calling to raise up other consultants and trainers. In 2004, I founded Auxano, which I sold to LifeWay and continued to lead until 2020. In 2014, I created Younique to deliver gospel-centered life design through the church. It is now the world's only comprehensive, open-source life plan system.

In 2023, I founded Run Free as my official team-based consulting shop. We deliver the most innovative Vision Framing experiences available to church teams through the "Pivvot Process" and to network/denominational leaders through the "Denominee Process." We also offer team coaching to church leaders using the "Performance Practices" of meta-performance executive coaching.

I've written seven books: Future Church, Church Unique, Younique, Clarity Spiral, God Dreams, Innovating Discipleship, and Building Leaders. I enjoy speaking about clarity, calling, disciple-making, and vision. It's all about helping one another do more than we can imagine. I co-locate in Houston and Chile with my wife, Romy, and the last of my four children, Poema.
