Understanding the Stages of Life, Faith, and Calling
In this teaching, Coach Tom walks through a powerful framework for understanding the seasons of life and spiritual development.

Drawing from the work of Richard Rohr and leadership researcher Bobby Clinton, he explains how God often shapes a person’s life through several distinct phases—from building and identity formation, through seasons of transition, and eventually into wisdom and legacy.

Coach Tom explores:
• The Heroic Journey (roughly ages 20–40) — building life, identity, and direction
• The Transition Years (40–55) — where humility, surrender, and deeper formation become essential
• The Wisdom Journey (55+) — learning to live a released life that blesses others

He also introduces Bobby Clinton’s six stages of leadership and faith development, showing how God intentionally shapes our lives through:
1. Sovereign Beginnings
2. Spiritual Formation
3. Gift Discovery & Development
4. Life Maturation
5. Convergence
6. Legacy

One of the most striking insights: only about 20% of believers reach the “convergence zone.”

This is the place where a person’s gifts, calling, experiences, and spiritual maturity come together in what Coach Tom calls “Kingdom flow.”

This teaching will help you:
• Understand where you are in your life journey
• Recognize how God uses transition and hardship for growth
• Avoid becoming “bitter” or “stuck” during mid-life transitions
• Move toward a life of wisdom, humility, and greater Kingdom impact

If you are in a season of transition, searching for clarity about your calling, or wondering how God is shaping your life story—this conversation will give you perspective and hope.
