is on mission to help leaders and their teams grow stronger and faster through one-on-one coaching with Courage To Lead.
Shawn is a successful real estate developer, previous church planter and megachurch pastor, and leader of a fast growing coaching and consulting organization. Speaking all over the country on the areas of leadership and organizational health, he is also the published author of several books including Measuring Success, Be Mean About The Vision, and Building A Killer Team.
He has been married for over 30 years to his wife, Tricia, and together they have three adult children and two grandchildren.
We strive to help Kingdom Leading build Killer Teams and possess the courage to lead. We believe that exceptional leadership is about far more than strategy, systems, or growth—it's about developing healthy teams, cultivating trust, and leading with clarity and conviction. Through coaching, community, and practical tools, we help clients move beyond simply managing people and into leading cultures that inspire excellence, accountability, and lasting impact. Our passion is to see kingdom leaders lead courageously, develop extraordinary teams, and leave a legacy that extends far beyond themselves.

We model the way and practice what we preach. We fight for health — spiritually, emotionally, relationally, and physically. Success is measured not by applause, but by the love and admiration of those closest to us.

We share the last 10% — the part that's hardest to say. We speak to one another, never about one another. We walk in integrity, especially when no one's watching.

We do what we say we'll do. Every time. We honor others by starting and ending on time. We can be trusted to deliver with excellence.

We respond promptly to every call, email, and text. We honor the 24-hour rule with clients, coaches, and teammates alike. We are available, approachable, and dependable — by design, not by accident.

We carry ourselves as professionals in every room we enter. We understand that credibility shows up not just in what we do, but in how we present ourselves. We treat one another with honor, courtesy, and respect.
