Lyle, always a trusted advisor and chief encourager, ignites disciple-makers. Lyle Kids, Hi Wife, and through the thousands of high-caliber leaders he’s invested in, will tell you the same thing: You want Lyle in your corner.

Whether it is preaching from Scripture or not, his tender pastor care and leave-you-in-stitches humor come through on and off stage. He has a disarming way of talking about the things no one wants to talk about. Lyle spent decades transforming athletic programs and serving as a leader in higher education. His passion for the basketball court and for his team is matched only by his fervor for healthy ministry leaders who accelerate their impact in the Kingdom. Lyle’s ministry experience includes serving as a senior pastor, church planter, and executive senior pastor at one of the nation’s largest churches.
