THE SUMMIT LIFE COACHING PROGRAM

Find Your Unique Purpose. Conquer Your Fear. 
Thrive in Transitions. Launch Out Into a Life of Significance.


Summit Life is a 3-month coaching program for men that is focused on helping you find your calling and courageously launch out into a life of purpose and vision. It's perfect for people who are preparing for a life transition or know it's time to make some changes to live a life focused on significance. Our program starts January 1.

You'll get:

  • One monthly, personal coaching call with Joël

  • A spiritual disciplines plan

  • Some great materials to help you explore your unique story and conquer your greatest fears.

    You'll take the journey with your coach Joël Malm.


During the program Joël will help you:

Find Your Power

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Cor. 12:9)

It’s a strange paradox of the faith that we find our greatest gift to offer God and the world right inside the thing that makes us feel weakest.

Lift Your Perspective

"Life must be lived forward, but it can only be understood looking backwards.” -Kierkegaard

God is always working in your life, but most of the time we can’t see it until we get some perspective. When we do, the work he has prepared for us becomes clear.

Plan for Progress

”Where there is no vision the people dwell without restraint.” (Pr. 29:18)

You can’t plan your life, but you can develop a strategy for using everything God has given you to the best of your ability (aka stewardship). We’ll work together to help you develop a personal vision map for the future.

Here are some of the most common questions we get about the program:


Can anyone do this?
Yes! The program is open to men and women of any age. You just need to be committed and open to whatever God asks of you. Most people who participate in the program are mid-career and ages 35-55, but the program is open to anyone.

I'm already short on time, how much time will this require?
The program content rolls out over six weeks, but there is really no rush. The content is simply a springboard for getting you some insight on your next steps. The exercises, workbooks, and videos can be completed at your leisure and several of the workbooks are actually more beneficial the slower you do them. The important thing is that you walk out with more clarity and understanding of who you are and what God is calling you to do. So 6 weeks often turns into 10 weeks by the time all the calls and exercises are completed, and that's not a problem - it's flexible. 

Can a husband and wife do this together?
Absolutely! In fact, it's highly recommended. So much so, that we don't charge extra for a couple to do the program together. 

So what happens when I'm done?
Nearly every team member who really commits to the program walks away from the experience with a vision for their future. We've had folks head to the mission field, start new organizations, change careers, pursue their wildest dreams, and step into new ministries. Amazing things happen when you dedicate focused time to watching for God's work in your life. 

Are scholarships available?
We don't want anyone to be unable to participate because of finances. There are lots of fixed costs for the program (website hosting, books, etc.) that we have to cover, so we can't give it away. But if you can't afford the program and really want to participate please contact us.

How does this tie in with Summit Leaders adventure trips?
We offer one Summit Leaders trip for program participants every six-months. Though joining one of these adventures is not required, most team members find that doing a trip at the end of their program is a great symbolic "high point" of their journey.

When can I start?
You can start today. As soon as your payment is complete you'll get access to the first videos in the program. You'll also schedule your first meeting with Joël for your Vision Map session. In this session you'll start to chart out your strategy for family, finances, career, ministry and personal goals that will be refined and clarified over the course of the program.
