Intentional Interim Ministry

Faithful guidance for churches in seasons of transition, grief, and renewal

Churches often find themselves in seasons of uncertainty—following the departure of a pastor, during times of conflict, or in the midst of grief, decline, or change.
These are not merely administrative transitions. They are spiritual moments that require thoughtful leadership, pastoral sensitivity, and steady presence.
Scott serves churches as an interim minister, providing stability, care, and wise guidance during these critical seasons.

Caring for Churches in Vulnerable Seasons

Some congregations face unique challenges that require particular attention and care, including:

• Churches experiencing grief or loss (death of a pastor or key leader)
• Congregations in times of conflict or instability
• Communities navigating decline, aging membership, or uncertainty about the future
• Churches in need of intentional reflection and renewal before calling a new pastor

Scott brings a calm, grounded presence to help congregations move forward with clarity and hope.
