Mentoring Leaders & Guiding Churches
This is the passion of HOPE Network. Twenty-nine ministry partners and associates presently do the work of mentoring and guiding. With over 900 years of combined ministry experience. We know the challenges of leading God’s people. Many of us have lines on our faces and scars on our hearts from years of trusting God in the trenches of church life.
With HOPE Network, you have access to resources and experienced people who are passionate about being helpful to the glory of God. There is HOPE!

The Challenge of Leadership
We know the challenge of leadership has never been greater. HOPE Network is comprised of seasoned leaders who have experienced success, and have also failed and been stuck.
We know this work is hard and we share the insecurities of our changing culture. Like you, we have children and are concerned about the future of their faith. We’ve disappointed people, been frustrated, and felt alone. Our team has “jumped into the river with elders who have felt they were drowning and swam with them.” You don’t have to navigate difficult waters alone; there is always HOPE!

“Our congregation’s partnership with Hope Network has been invaluable. More than a year later, we are still reaping fruit from the time they spent with us. Jon Mullican has the rare ability to clarify the real issues and cut straight to the source of congregational dysfunction. His presence provided decades of experience, proven methods, and pastoral wisdom to our Vision process. We are a healthier church because of his leadership and insight.”
