Over more than four decades in the trenches of church leadership, I hear pastors say one thing more than anything else:

“I wish I could do more of
what matters to Jesus.”

My name is Ed Underwood, and I lead Recentered Group.

If you’re like most pastors I know, you spend most of your energy navigating church politics. The pain of high staff turnover, low trust, and the constant jockeying for control wears on your heart… and sadly, your family often takes collateral damage in the process.

My job at Recentered Group is to help pastors stuck in situations like this to get free... back to what matters most to Jesus.

My heart comes alive when…

  • Pastors spend less time putting out fires, and more time developing disciples. 

  • Pastors experience the great freedom of protective, high-trust relationships.

  • Pastors watch as their church breaks away from toxic, control-oriented habits.

Make disciples and love one another.

The Great Commission and the Great Commandment are Jesus’ instructions to His church. Recentered Group helps pastors and churches get better at doing those things. Often that looks like:

  • personal one-on-one mentorship of a hurting pastor.

  • shepherding a leadership team through a crisis.

  • providing training and support to church staff and elder boards.

Corporate leadership strategies will ultimately fail you and your church. 

Recentered Group offers a proven, sustainable, biblical approach to building disciples in an atmosphere of grace, starting with the leaders, and cascading down to each member.

I’d love to talk. Please reach out!
