Daryl Busby

After many years of experience as a pastor, seminary professor and chaplain to seniors, my role as consultant offers:

  • A candid yet compassionate insight to many of your ministry concerns

  • A one-to-one mentor-ship that listens to your heart issue

  • A life applied expository Bible preaching style which speaks to people

  • A teaching style that delivers engaging learning for all ages

  • A reality based commitment to the disciples-making mission of God's people

  • A sincere curiosity about any church- including yours

Bridges - A Powerful Connection

My wife and I have lived most of our married life in cities with bridges -lots of them! Some bridges were massive and impressive while other bridges went unnoticed.  Bridges help us move from where we live to where we need to go. That describes my work as a consultant...helping people to get where they need to go.

In some settings, I assisted churches as they bridged their way between the departure of one pastor and the arrival of the next. In other settings, I walked alongside hundreds of students who travelled the bridge of Christian education to enter a new career. While serving as a prison chaplain, I assisted inmates to bridge their way back into society. For many years, I have come alongside older adults who must cross bridges into their senior years, with all the promise and perils of that journey.

Whether helping young adults to bridge into adulthood, or local churches to cross over into a new era, my joy has been supporting people travel into new vistas of life and ministry. Building bridges!
