We have never heard this stuff before. You’re distinction between identity, calling and role is life-giving and freeing.

The feedback was amazing. Thanks for helping us to look like we know what we’re doing. We are always truly grateful for the gift you have of communicating difficult things in such a simple way and hence helping us all to become free and experience more freedom.
Ps Adam White, National Leader, New Life Churches NZ
As a Christian leader I can’t stress enough how valuable my regular session with Richard Black has been. – Highly recommended
Rev. Simon Martin, Bishop’s Chaplain, Nelson Anglicans
Richard’s process is clear and the wisdom he brings is deeply reassuring as I know I am in good hands. Each session helps me be a better leader, husband, and disciple.
Ben and Amy Kendrew, ARISE Church
We are very grateful that over the years, the trainings that Richard has offered, have really helped build a solid foundation for our staff and for our pastors… No one really presents as articulately and professionally and with substance as Richard does.
Ps Sam Tolley – Church Unlimited, Auckland
Richard brings a wealth of knowledge, compassion and practical wisdom in the area of wellbeing, pastoral care and longevity in ministry. Because of this we have had Richard come and speak at our church on a Sunday and also he has been a keynote speaker at our annual conference.
Richard is an amazing asset to the churches and pastors of NZ.
