You’ll commit to five in-person retreats of four days each. You’ll be part of one opening and three closing Zoom gatherings. You’ll be engaged in readings, practices and small group mentoring between these retreats. You will also engage in six one-hour spiritual direction sessions. There is an appropriate intensity to this training without overloading you with a lot of busy work. 

This training is not just for people with broad organizational leadership responsibilities. Some who join this training will have roles like this. But if you are a person who is open to growth and change, who wants to mature in your relationship with God, who wants to be encouraged by like-minded people, and who provides care for others in any capacity, you are at the right level. The main qualification is your hunger to grow and to help others grow. High priorities of this training are to be invitational, formational, and practical. That’s why this works for anyone who truly wants to engage. We all begin right where we are and we take that next discerned step.

We hear you. Finances are tight for many right now. But what if this investment helped transform your own life in God, and gave you confidence and tools to help others grow in this life? Wouldn’t that make a huge difference going forward? An investment in your life and leadership like this will pay returns for years to come.

Most important things come with some sort of price tag. We invest either our time or our money. Most of us feel we're short on both. The question is this: How important is it for you to come out from under “I’m always behind” and move to “I found a sustainable way to live and lead.”

This is the great irony of leading an organization called Unhurried Living. We both have very full schedules and long to-do lists. “Too busy” is the very thing we address. Busyness can rob us of life, joy and peace. We’ve learned that you can be busy and unhurried at the same time. We know it’s possible because Jesus is our best example. Busy is about your calendar. Hurry is about your soul. We can walk alongside you as you make this important inner shift.

We believe that this training will have a way of multiplying your sense of capacity and time. Rather than just seeing this as an addition to your already full schedule, see it as a way of learning to navigate the opportunities and responsibilities in your life with more grace, more courage, more energy and more peace. 

PACE isn’t just providing you with meaningful experiences that will end in nice memories but little change. PACE is designed to help you learn to cooperate with the transforming work of the Spirit in your life and in the lives of others. This is a way of living that you’ll carry with you for the rest of your life. We’ve seen lasting transformation in the lives of leaders we’ve trained over the years.
