Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about The Carbonado Intensive, the gatherings, and working with The Dads Prayer Coach.

About the Coaching

Is the coaching online?

No—this is premium coaching, in person or by phone.

  • In person — We can grab a coffee somewhere local to you, or meet me right in your truck at a central spot in the Columbia, Spring Hill, Franklin, or Brentwood areas. No stuffy offices necessary.

  • Hybrid — In person and by phone, across the Nashville metro area.

  • By phone — Nationwide, tailored completely to your schedule.

Completely private. Just you and your coach.

What is The Carbonado Intensive™?

A 6-week Christian coaching program that helps you build a prayer life that lasts. Week by week, you're refined toward clarity of purpose, real brotherhood, steadfast peace, and enduring joy—grounded in Scripture and Christ-centered prayer. Explore The Carbonado Intensive™ →

Do I need to be a "prayer expert" to start?

No. Most dads who come to me feel like prayer is the thing they're worst at. That's the point. You bring the willingness; I'll teach you one concrete prayer skill every week.

What are the Men's Prayer & Praise Gatherings?

An energized worship gathering for men's ministries and churches. I lead the prayer; your team leads the music. Travel reimbursed, honorarium only—built to serve your ministry, not strain your budget.

Scheduling & Sessions

What happens if I miss a week?

We reschedule. Your sessions are set around your life, so a full week isn't a problem—we find the next time that works.

Are sessions recorded?

No—nothing is ever recorded. What's shared stays between you and your coach. This is a place to be honest—confidentiality is critical.

Cost

Why is the coaching priced so low?

Because cost shouldn't keep a dad from becoming the man his family needs. Comparable Christian coaching runs $500–$1,700 for groups and $2,000–$4,500 one-on-one. This is premium coaching with a professional curriculum that I developed myself after decades of working with men, priced so a working dad can reach it. You can read the full story on my affordability page.

What if it's not the right fit?

The Carbonado Intensive is backed by a 3-Day Risk-Free Guarantee. Try the first session—if it's not right, ask for a full refund within 72 hours and we'll part as friends.

The Books

Are the Black Diamond Dads books really free?

Yes. Every volume is a free eBook download. They're a ministry tool first—40 true-to-life stories of dads building a legacy of purpose, brotherhood, peace, and joy through Christ-centered prayer.
