Testimonials
"I would be willing to recommend your expertise to anyone because it really gave us good information about how our expectations matched up with the ministry objectives of the candidates we were interested in. It also gave us increased confidence in the process we were using and reinforced our belief in what we were doing. Your Pastor Search Guide is outstanding and led us in a very positive way. We are so pleased with the results."
"Thanks for your help and encouragement. By the way, the use of the instrument [Church Staff Search Guide] provided by MinistryConnect was extremely insightful and helpful. I think every church should see it and use it."
"God has used MinistryConnect to impact our church in ways that only eternity can measure. I have personally recommended MinistryConnect to seminary presidents and churches of all stripes, traditions and flavors. We have used them to coach us in congregational health, strategic planning and staff team building. At every turn they have been there for us, connecting us with seemingly endless resources. Their best gift to us, however, has been the sensitive, patient and persistent manner in which they have challenged us. They truly bring the balance of high tech and high touch. They are consistently available and CARE ABOUT what happens in our congregational life. Their passion is the local church and her mission-no ivory tower theories from folks who have never sat through a church business conference!"
"MinistryConnect helped identify God-given gifts and strengths that gave insight and direction in my quest for a new ministry position. Their assessments, diagnostic tools and materials were a great help. The most profound assistance was in Christian brothers with experience, wisdom, and obvious relationship with Jesus Christ who would eagerly and selflessly come alongside another believer through a time of searching and doubt with words of encouragement and help. Thanks for walking with me."
"I appreciate the guidance given by Roger Hatfield and the services of MinistryConnect at a time when I needed to redirect my vocational pursuits after being denied a sought after position in hospital chaplaincy. The instruments of "LifeFind" and "Ministry Match" helped me in doing some critical self-evaluation and continues to help me consider opportunities on the basis of my strengths. I have a better grasp of the diverse opportunities for vocation that I have when I now consider my ministry gifts and values."
"I have known Roger Hatfield and Verlyn Bergen for more than twenty-five years and have always experienced them as being on the cutting edge as far knowing the direction churches should take to be healthy and effective. These men have a passion for the church and church leaders. They are always anxious to share with fellow ministers what they have learned about being an effective/healthy church in the 21st century and they are always anxious to learn from fellow ministers. These men have great people skills as well as communication skills. Our staff and church has benefited greatly by being on the receiving end of their ministy whether it be in a retreat setting or on campus ministry visit. We count Roger and Verlyn friends that we can call on for insight whenever we are not sure what our next step is in church development."
"As you know, I have found a place to serve, but I really don't think I could have been patient enough if it had not been for your gentle and concerned spirit. I am so thankful that I had people like you to be such a help and support to me. God had truly blessed me with your friendship and I owe you so much! I am serving as pastor of Cairo Baptist Church just north of Moberly. I never imagined God would, in a sense, keep me in place to serve Him. I have become a MinistryConnect advocate to churches. I will spread your name as far and wide as I can. I believe you and Verlyn have been led to offer a Christ centered service that churches and other should take care of."
