Coach LeighAnn Thomas

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do (Ephesians 2:10).

  • Do you long to share with others—through writing or speaking—what God is teaching you in prayer and in study of His Word?
  • Do you find yourself scribbling notes and ideas on napkins, scraps of paper, or in the margins of your church bulletins?
  • Do your most intriguing story or article ideas take root as you’re trying to fall asleep at night?

If one or more of these questions brought a smile and a resounding yes, then you have the heart of a communicator! And like Eric Liddell felt God’s pleasure when he ran in the 1924 Olympics, you feel the joy of walking in step with God when you write or speak the words He’s given you to share with the world.

Leigh Ann Thomas Coaching offers the encouragement to embrace your unique gifts and abilities and to seek God’s heart on your writing journey. Whether you are just starting out in writing and speaking, or you are ready to fine-tune a book proposal, there is a coaching package ready to accommodate your needs.
