Accelerate Life & Career Coaching

accelerate_logoIn today’s highly-competitive Silicon Valley marketplace, people need strategies to develop their career opportunities without losing their souls. Leveraging thirty years of experience in pastoral ministry, coaching, and psychometrics, Dr. John Wallace has developed a program called Accelerate. Accelerate is for people who want to understand their most valuable qualities and to develop strategies and support structures that will help them thrive sustainably and ethically.

Accelerate is built on four premises:

  • You are created with purpose.
  • You have unique skills that equip you to add value to this world.
  • You have unhealthy impulses that can keep you from reaching your full potential.
  • You need healthy community in order to thrive.

Sign Up for 4 Introductory One-Hour Sessions:

  1. Your Personal History: When were you thriving?; when were you foundering? In this session we’ll consider factors and influences that were prominent during times when you were respectively at your best and at your worst.
  2. Your Unique Behavioral Strengths: In this session we’ll review the results of your Myers Briggs Type Indicator and/or DISC profile. We’ll ascertain your preferred behavioral tendencies. We’ll identify activities and environments that energize you and those that drain you.*
  3. Your Work Plan: Everybody works differently. In this session we’ll consider how you can organize your work environment and schedule to achieve maximum productivity.
  4. Your Long Range Goals: In this session we’ll examine your life ambitions in light of your capabilities. We consider how you might carve out time to move toward your goals. We’ll also review your “saboteurs”, unhealthy impulses that can lure you off track.

Cost: $360* • SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY OFFER – NO COST TO FIRST 12 PARTICIPANTS
*Additional cost for Personality Assessments such as DISC or Myers Briggs Type Indicator® may apply.

Sessions may be conducted in person, by video conference, or by telephone. Limited times are available for in-person sessions, held at the True Hope Community Church office, 400 Llewellyn Ave., Campbell CA 95008.

The Kingdom of God

New Series Begins September 4th

The day will come when God’s peace and justice will be established forever. Until that day, we embrace His peace and justice in our hearts.

Sundays at 10:45 AM

After Dallas

We are living at a time when the church can not simply focus on the spiritual growth of our members while ignoring the larger issues of our culture. We become more like Jesus, not by isolating ourselves from the world, but by engaging the world with a message of hope.

Protests Over Police ShootingsThe brutal events of these past weeks, the killings of two black men and of five Dallas police officers and the wounding of others, have reminded us that we live in a broken world. There is mistrust, there is hatred, and there is violence. Our hearts go out to the friends and families of victims of these horrible tragedies. We grieve and we mourn with them. We acknowledge their pain and commit ourselves to pray for and work for justice on their behalf. As Jesus taught us to pray,

Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done in earth,
as it is in heaven.

~Matthew 6:10

This world needs a message of justice and also forgiveness, the message of reconciliation proclaimed by Jesus Christ. Christ followers are called not just to proclaim reconciliation but also to model it, not lashing out with assumptions and accusations, not retaliating when wronged, but patiently absorbing the anguish and anger of this fallen world.

For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

~2 Corinthians 5:19, NLT

To become ministers of reconciliation we must build bridges across ethnic, social, and sectarian chasms and get to know people who are different from us. The line that divides is not between black and white or black and blue; the line is between love and hate and it runs right though the human heart. Every person is capable of love and hate. Isolation leads to fear. Fear drives us to hate. “But perfect love drives out fear…” (The Apostle John, 1 John 4:18, NIV).

To love means to become vulnerable. Jesus said, “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends” (John 15:13, NIV). The Apostle Paul said, “God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8, NIV). The Apostle Peter said, “[Jesus] did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when he suffered. He left his case in the hands of God, who always judges fairly” (1 Peter 2:23, NLT).

Love is hard, it’s perilous, but it’s the only path to justice.

In his address today, President Obama reminded us of our need to have civil conversations about the issues that divide us. He’s right; we need to talk about racial justice, gun control, immigration, sexual morality, health care, abortion, and religious freedom. We need to have these conversations out of genuine concern for the welfare of everyone involved not just with the aim of protecting our own rights and privileges.

And today, we need to grieve together.
