You're Called to Transform Communities

Design experiments. Build systems. Multiply impact.

Your vision is urgent. Your calling is clear. But scattered tools and isolated systems make it hard to know what’s actually working in your people and your neighborhood.

I help pastors and networks turn sermons, programs, and good intentions into a simple operating system of experiments that connect local calling, your congregation’s real capacity, and the signals coming from your community.

About Leslie

I build tools and rooms for leaders who care about real neighborhoods.

For the last few years I’ve walked with pastors, networks, and community partners who are trying to move beyond good ideas into experiments that actually change people and places. The platforms you see here—Community Playbook, Multiply, Dream Chaser Kids, and more—grew out of that work.

My lane is helping you see clearly what God is already doing, design small, honest experiments, and then build the simple systems that let you sustain the fruit.

Ways we can work together

Different leaders need different on‑ramps. Most of my work fits into three lanes that can stand alone or connect into a larger operating system.

Pastors & Churches

Turn sermons and ministries into simple experiments you can actually track.

We’ll start small—one discipleship or neighborhood experiment—and use tools like Multiply and Community Playbook to see what’s really helping your people grow.

Networks & Districts

Build a shared framework for churches in your region.

I help you design cohorts, playbooks, and data stories that align multiple congregations around local calling, congregational capacity, and neighborhood signals.

Youth & Next‑Gen

Give kids and teens safe spaces to build, not just consume.

Through Dream Chaser Kids and related tools, we design journeys where young people discover strengths, learn to use AI well, and launch real projects with mentors.

Multiply turns your messages into discipleship, not just content

We’re leading in a noisy, polarized moment. People are hearing a hundred competing stories before they ever make it back to Sunday. Multiply is a purpose‑built tool that helps you carry the right story through the week—using your sermons, testimonies, and teaching as engines for formation, not just events.

  • Turn one message into a simple path of prompts, reflections, and actions your people can walk out in real time where they live, work, and scroll.
  • Capture stories from your congregation and reuse them as weekly “on ramps” into discipleship journeys around justice, forgiveness, calling, and community life.
  • Build short series for different groups—new believers, youth, leaders, digital‑first attenders—without creating a whole new program for each one.
  • Use Multiply inside experiments so you can see which stories and pathways actually change behavior, not just fill calendars.
