My extensive experience with students and families along with my Advanced Coaching Certification, gives me a unique approach to ministry. Since 2017, I have been working with the Rethink Group where I get the honor of coaching and consulting with church leaders. My work with the Rethink Group has allowed me to experience global youth ministry which has shaped my coaching methods to be more strategic in working to build legacy ministries.

She’s a trusted coach, a gifted communicator, and a steady presence for leaders navigating the joys and challenges of next-gen ministry. Whether she’s developing curriculum, leading a training, or connecting with a leader over coffee, Rebecca’s heart is always the same: to help ministry leaders feel confident, capable, and never alone.
