Jennie Turton, Founder of the Christian Coaching School

Jennie is passionate about one thing: seeing individuals live out the fullness of the Gospel’s promise for the abundant life. She’s convinced that happens only through deep inner transformation and that coaching is one of the most powerful models that God is using today to facilitate that transformation. She co-founded Invigorate Life Coaching (parent ministry of CCS) in 2011, in partnership with Valentin Miculit, to see ministry leaders flourish in their professional and personal lives. Nearly a decade later, Jennie has trained and coached leaders from the United States to China, rejuvenating their own relationship with God so they can pour out that overflow to those they serve.

Jennie received her Professional Coaching Certification and Coach Training Certification through Lifeforming Leadership Coaching (2006). She coaches and trains senior pastors, heads of ministry organizations, mission leaders, church planters and ministry leaders globally. Jennie is a member of the Christian Coach Network, and has spoken at their annual Coaching Summit.

Jennie received a Master of Arts in Practical Theology with a Life Coaching emphasis from Regent University’s School of Divinity and a Bachelors of Arts in Communication and Journalism. She trained in Inner Healing under Francis MacNutt’s School of Inner Healing Prayer and Grace Walk Ministries. She is a life-long learner who has immersed herself in the neuroscience work of Dr. Caroline Leaf (2011), the faith-based holistic healing work of  Dr. James Richards (2012), the inner healing and deliverance ministry of Dr. Neil T. Anderson’s Steps to Freedom (2005), the Christ-centered Jungian psychology work of Robert A. Johnson and other powerful believers who have dedicated their lives to Christ-centered holistic healing. When she is not coaching or teaching coaching, Jennie is learning all she can about neuroscience, holistic healing, natural medicine, psychology and wellness.

Jennie has ministered in Ukraine, Jamaica, Romania, Serbia, Bosnia (where she served as a missionary in 2007) and China. She served as Vice Chair of Mercy for the Children Myanmar, a non-profit ministry providing food, education and medical care for 110 orphans (2014-2018).

Jennie resides in Santa Barbara, CA with her husband.
