  • "They have given us a safe place to be vulnerable and transparent with everything and anything, and have helped point us in a much healthier direction."

    "Jeff Gokee and the entire PHOENIX/ONE staff have been one of the biggest blessings to me and my family. Pastoral ministry is incredibly challenging and can be very lonely at times, especially as a young pastor such as myself. But the intentional time and care that Jeff and the staff have given to my wife and I has been life changing. They walked alongside us during one of the most difficult seasons of our lives and continue to love and support us to this day. They not only have given us a safe place to be vulnerable and transparent with everything and anything, but they have given us fresh perspective and have helped point us in a much healthier direction. They truly understand what it looks like to be spiritually healthy and that includes more than what is happening within our church walls."

  • "They are not selling, they are serving. They are building a community of ministry leaders who know, trust, and love one another."

    "PHOENIX/ONE is the real deal. They have been a great catalyst and encouragement to ministry leaders and pastors in the Phoenix area. They are pastoring pastors, and they are gathering, connecting, and equipping leaders in the church and faith community. They are not selling, they are serving. They are not distributing information, they are modeling incarnation. They are building a community of ministry leaders who know, trust, and love one another. PHOENIX/ONE is faithfully doing the Gospel to many of the leaders and pastors on the front line teaching and sharing the Gospel; and that is very good news for all of us!"

  • "PHOENIX/ONE has such a unique way of meeting ministry leaders where they are and making them feel so loved and valuable as they serve the local church."

    "It has been a great honor to partner with the PHOENIX/ONE team. Their mission to unify the body of Christ resonates so well with our heart and mission as we pour into worship leaders across the USA! John 17:21 - PHOENIX/ONE has such a unique way of meeting ministry leaders where they are and making them feel so loved and valuable as they serve the local church. We are so grateful for this partnership and so excited to serve together again in the coming years!"
