| Hi, I’m Tyler Cadwell, founder of Clear Path Leader and author of Clear Path Leadership. After more than a decade in ministry, I’ve met countless leaders who love Jesus and love their people, but feel drained, isolated, and overwhelmed. They’re doing their best, yet end up carrying the weight of ministry alone, unsure how to build the healthy, thriving team they’ve been praying for. That’s why I created the Clear Path Framework, a simple, powerful four-step process: Unpack, Reframe, Reset, Relaunch. The path isn’t always easy, but it removes every barrier we can see so you and your leaders can move forward with clarity and confidence. It’s the foundation for everything I do to help churches go from leading on empty, to leading with clarity. Through the Clear Path Framework, I walk alongside churches in a variety of ways, depending on your needs:

- Personal mission statement
- Job descriptions and growth pathways
- Leader Check in Survey

Most churches are passionate about discipling the congregation and that’s a good and vital goal. But too often, they overlook the people who are already the most invested in the mission: their volunteer teams.
I believe it’s our job as ministers to equip the saints for the work God has laid before us to build up the body and bring worship and glory to God through the advancement of the Gospel of Jesus (Ephesians 4:11-13). That starts by discipling those already serving alongside us.
At Clear Path Leader, I help ministry leaders create simple, sustainable systems to equip, empower, and encourage their teams through practical habits, purposeful goal setting, and clear expectations aligned with biblical leadership. Everything we build is grounded in the Word of God and applied uniquely to your ministry context (1 Timothy 3:16-17).
Whether you’re leading youth, worship, discipleship, serving as an executive minister, or guiding as an elder, Clear Path Leader equips you with the tools to multiply disciples, grow leaders, and build a thriving leadership culture. Together, let’s shift from doing everything ourselves to equipping, empowering, and encouraging our leadership teams God has already placed in our ministries.
