I, first, want to reintroduce myself. I am Mike Bumgarner, chaplain bum,

the pastor of disaster in the Norman Regional Emergency Department, life

and relationship coach and often perplexed follower of Jesus. I write as a

life coach and minister. I happen to like people a lot. I love the good, the

bad and the ugly.


I have a plaque in my office. “Sit Long and Talk Much”. This has become

somewhat of a mission statement for my life and work. Conversation can

be helpful. Directed conversation can change the direction of a life. Life

coaching is directed conversation. I encourage clients to bring life issues,

and the questions that follow. In the coaching world we practice deep

listening. We listen and then ask questions to clarify and give space to

process. Have you ever noticed how negative thoughts, practices,

perceptions loop in our brains. This is stuck thinking.


We can choose not to let stuck thinking dominate our lives. I encourage

you to consider a coaching session. What do you want your life to look

like? We choose. If you have chosen a scarce life, I challenge you to

consider the work to have an abundant life.


To schedule a coaching session with me, please call Restore Behavioral

Health in Norman at 405 310 3262. You will be directed to new clients. I

can be reached on my cell phone at 405 760 1580. My email address is
