THRIVE IN LIFE AND LEADERSHIP

Hi, I’m Carey Nieuwhof…

I want you to take a look at your life and leadership. Are you where you want to be? Are you and the people you lead truly thriving?

For most of us, the answer is, “Not yet.” But I’d love to see you succeed in getting there.

It’s time to say YES to leading and growing in a sustainable, impactful, and healthy way. What you’ll find here — whether it’s insights from world-class leaders or practical resources you can use day in and day out — will help you build confidence and find clarity so you can grow your church and your leadership… without years of trail-and-failure.

Your growth starts here.

MY COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING IS INSIDE…

Art of Leadership Academy

Leadership doesn’t have to be lonely and overwhelming.

In The Art of Leadership Academy, you’ll engage a private online community of leaders committed to leading healthy, growing churches.

Through ongoing guided discussions, live coaching calls, and a forum to ask any leadership question you have, you’ll discover new strategies, build practical day-to-day skills, and get immediate feedback from people who have led through the exact same challenges and opportunities you’re facing.

You can keep learning from your own mistakes, or you can fast-track your growth and learn directly from people who have been in your shoes before—including me. When I show up in the community (most days each week), it isn’t a team member or a bot… it’s really me.

Life-Giving Community

Through guided discussions and a forum to start your own, you’ll go from “nobody knows I’m here” to frequent engagement with leaders just like you.

Live Coaching Calls

Connect with me, my team, and top leaders on Live Coaching Calls, held monthly, where we discuss today’s most pressing leadership topics.

Invested in Your Success

Start with a warm welcome and onboarding call invested in your success. Plus, tap into our support team whenever you need it — no extra cost.

Practical, step-by-step leadership strategies, tools, and skills that get you real growth. Available on-demand whenever you need it.

When you join, you get unlimited, on-demand access to my best material that you won’t find anywhere else.

A Growing Library of Comprehensive Courses (with Bite-Sized Modules)

My courses cover anything (and everything) from becoming a more effective preacher and communicator, to freeing up time and energy to focus on what matters most to you. And from creating a culture of generosity at your church, to developing leaders that can grow areas of your ministry.

It’s all broken down into bite-sized modules that have…

Workbooks, Templates, Cheatsheets, Checklists, Scripts and More

These day-to-day resources take you from concept to execution immediately — and they’re included in each course and training. You’ll get access to hundreds of workbooks, templates, cheat sheets, checklists, scripts, and assessments to turn the concepts and insights into immediate action.

And to top it all off…

Done-For-You Leadership Development (for Staff Meetings)

With new leadership development material every month, you can prepare your staff and volunteers to make better decisions — stress free. Each month, you’ll receive a plug-and-play video training, meeting agenda, and application guide so you can cross staff meeting prep off your to-do list for good.

14,000+ leaders have used these courses to get real results.
You can too.

Get unlimited access to all of the courses listed below. Every course is available on-demand and includes additional resources to help you turn the concepts and insights into immediate action—workbooks, templates, cheat sheets, checklists, scripts, assessments, and more.

Fund the Future

There’s comfort in knowing you can watch (or re-watch) a lesson, use a practical tool or template, send a DM, or simply post a question, and you’ll be moving forward in minutes.

Jasmyn Denton

I learn something new every time I open the app—whether it’s hearing what other leaders are learning and doing, problem-solving with fellow members, or working through the courses, this is a rich, deep well.

The interactions in the comments are always generous, insightful, and not self-inflated. In one of the comment sections, Carey simply said, “There’s so much wisdom in this group. What do people think?” I could have cried for joy.

To have someone point to us and say, “Ask them…” meant more than I can say.

Paul Webster

I’ve created margin in my life and leadership, and I love it. We have a weekly time planned for our family just to be us and play games and have fun together. Having young kids (who are growing up way too fast!), this is my biggest win!

I’ve also reclaimed wasted time at work, where I’m using my green zone to improve my preaching, work on ministry strategy, and create digital content for our church.

Jeremy Cole

There ARE other people out there asking the same questions and going through the same things I am. This makes me feel normal.

What I love the most is the clarity it brings to the complex problems we are all facing as pastors.

And that I don’t have to come up with my own content to invest in my team. I can just use what’s provided here and in the monthly team training content.

Nowhere else do you find such quality content for pastors.

Sarah Starrenburg

I have received so much wisdom, encouragement, and thought-provoking input from an amazing network of people I otherwise would never have met. The Academy is truly a gift.

Dave Allman

Our church has grown spiritually, numerically, and financially. We identified that we were understaffed, and our payroll was far below the standard budget.

Since joining, our church attendance has nearly doubled in size; we hired two more full-time and one more part-time staff. We have raised over two million dollars and will be debt-free on our property at the end of this year.

The feeling of being overwhelmed is lifting from my shoulders as we have expanded our team.

Brody Tubaugh

I took the course on generosity inside The Art of Leadership Academy, and we actually have a plan now. I’m so excited.

I’ve never been excited about money [at church], and now there’s light at the end of the tunnel instead of just barely scraping by.

Josiah Petermann

This has been a breath of fresh air. I was overworked and overwhelmed, and our staff was stuck maintaining the mission hung on the wall.

Since joining and using the programs, we’ve heard so many encouraging insights that have helped us move our mission forward and invite people to join us.

Chris Hallbach

After working through the Art of Preaching, I was compelled to preach noteless for the first time ever, and it went incredibly well. My bottom line was clear and thoughtful.

I even had multiple people come up to tell me how engaging and dynamic my message was. I can’t wait to keep getting better.

Mike Willis

I am absolutely thrilled and overflowing with gratitude for this incredible community that has been an invaluable guide in equipping me to lead my church through a replant!

The unwavering support and expert advice have been a game-changer for me as a pastor.

I’m confidently charting a course toward a bright and successful future for my church!

  • Stay curious longer.

    Everyone in the community has expertise. Some of the best leaders are known as much by the quality of the questions they ask, as the answers they give.

  • Pursue health.

    Help people live in a way each day that will help them thrive tomorrow.

  • Treat discussions like a great dinner conversation.

    Differences of opinion are welcome but are shared with respect and curiosity.

  • Take the low place.

    Push others into the spotlight. Ask how you can serve others rather than seeking to be served.

  • Choose trust.

    Believe the best about others rather than assuming the worst. When in doubt, lead with the most generous explanation for someone’s behavior.

Don’t let the same old…
Strategies, Coaching Groups, Methods,
Networks, Mentors
… get you the same old results.
