New Trails began from the desire to see pastors and other professional church workers finish well. The challenges of serving congregations and religious institutions has become increasingly complex. At New Trails we use a combination of the wilderness and coaching to help clergy find balance and support to continue to live out their vocation.

I kept asking, what does God have in mind for a guy with 2 Master's Degrees, a D Min and loves to hike! The answer, is New Trails. As a long time pastor, I know the challenges of church ministry. I also believe a wilderness immersion is beneficial to combating stress and off loading the challenges of life. At New Trails we offer a remote location, as well an opportunity to spend time in remote locations, backpacking, or day hiking.
