ABOUT DONOVAN

ABOUT DONOVAN

I’m Donovan Golden, Executive Pastor of Creative Ministries at

The Austin Stone Community Church in Austin, Texas.

I lead teams across creative ministry, worship support, and production—and I understand the tension of carrying ministry vision while building the systems and culture required to support it.


This coaching brings together pastoral care, creative leadership, and practical organizational strategy. My goal is to help creative ministry leaders become healthier, clearer, and more trusted leaders without losing the heart that drew them to ministry.
