Coach Bio: Gary Diehl was introduced to the dynamics of what a healthy local church looks like through the Natural Church Development in 1998 while serving as his home church's site coordinator during an “Integrated
Planning” consultation. Gary joined the Living Stones Associates team in 2001 and began consulting with churches out of a growing conviction that many congregations need comprehensive, biblically grounded guidance to become healthy and effective in our rapidly changing world. He was trained and certified with NCD in 2002 and recertified by NCD America and NCD International in 2019.
During his 35+year career in the business world, Gary sharpened his skills in problem solving, leadership dynamics, team development, project management, and strategic planning which he now uses to coach,
guide and equip churches and leaders.
Gary serves pastors, leaders, teams, local congregations and multiple denominations across North America while based in Ohio. Among other certifications, he is a certified NCD Coach with NCD America and NCD International and a lead consultant and NCD specialist with the Living Stones Associates consulting team (www.living-stones.com ).
