Jason works with his wife Sam offering comprehensive and personalised debriefings. Primarily these are for Christian leaders leaving ministry or a ministry role, or retiring, and for missionaries returning from the mission field. These 1-2 day residential debriefs offer a time for honest, open and guided reflection. There is opportunity to prayerfully engage with God about how the experience has been and to look toward the future. Making time in this structured way to properly process an ending and a new beginning is an important choice to prioritise personal wellbeing, whilst providing time to celebrate all thats been achieved. As well as making time to acknowledge where difficulties, challenge, unrealised ambition and circumstances have possibly evolved beyond our imaginings. These debriefings are ideal for couples who’ve worked in partnership, whether they were both fully employed or not. And they can also be enjoyed by individuals, who may wish to work with just Jason or Sam one to one.
Jason is an engaging, encouraging, thought provoking, inspiring and well humoured public speaker. He communicates effectively with people of any background and uses his gently disarming manner to cover spiritual ideas and topics that can be both challenging and complex. His greatest passions as a communicator are to encourage people in their faith, ongoing spiritual formation, spiritual health, wellbeing and in discerning their vocations and seasons. Having worked professionally as a teacher and as a pastor over three decades he can confidently and effectively relate well to anyone and he enjoys the opportunity to speak in any setting. If you would like to book him for a Sunday service, public event, seminar, workshop, podcast or to teach at a leaders gathering he would be delighted to talk with you. And if you would like to listen to some of his previous teaching you can find past talks at the West Wilts Vineyard website (the church he co founded with his wife). www.westwiltsvineyard.com
Jason offers one day retreats for leaders, or any other individuals, who are looking to get away and take time out to slow down and be with God alongside a spiritual companion. These days offer a chance for you to rest, disconnect from your other responsibilities and the noise of daily life. Here you can think, pray, be still, be quiet and benefit from gentle input designed to meet you where you find yourself and the needs you have. They include food and can include a comfortable evening stay too if that’s required so you can relax into your time away. A typical day would involve time spent together prayerfully looking at what your hopes are, time in nature to walk and enjoy the created world, space to be alone and time to harvest together what God has shared during the day with you. But as no two people are the same every day retreat can be designed to fit your needs and what brings life and rest to your soul!
