    One Church, Executive Pastor
    "Dan and the Generis team were an incredible fit for us at One Church. As we were having some difficulty coming up with a clear plan on how to best walk our church through this, Generis came in at the perfect time. They clearly outlined a plan and helped customize it to the culture and needs of One Church. We would highly recommend them to any organization to gain some traction, for unwavering support and responsiveness and for great results."

  • Phil Byars

    "Dan's ministry savvy and heart for Christ's Church are unparalleled. His counsel is beyond wise, and I would hire him to our pastoral executive team in a heartbeat. I truly believe that without Dan and the Generis team, we would have struggled significantly during this process. He made what could have been a difficult journey an incredibly smooth and transformative one. I have the utmost respect for Dan and wholeheartedly recommend him."
