Hi, I’m Pastor Stan Lubeck
I want to serve God's church by providing tools and resources to help the local church make more and better disciples of Jesus. The church should be a "leader breeder" environment where the best leaders are developed to serve society as they seek to honor Christ.
Effective & Strategic
“Stan and Robin have been effective and strategic mentors for Mindy and me. I’m so grateful for their investment in our lives and ministry.”
Training Leaders
Stan and Robin have a wealth of experience in coaching and mentoring. I interned for Stan 30+ years ago and the foundational principles for life and ministry I learned have influenced my life since as I trained interns and equipped leaders for ministry.
Coaching
Trish and I have known Stan and Robin for over 20 years. Their life and ministry are examples of how God can use a life to multiply influence on many. I would not be in ministry had it not been for Stan’s pouring into me as a coach, as a mentor, and as a leader. When I think of the Lubeck’s I think of coaches.
