Our Story

How it all started...

New Path Ministries was born out of the personal journey of Ron Cool—a husband, father, pastor, and bold communicator with a passion to see men rise up as spiritual leaders. After years of ministry, coaching, and podcasting, Ron saw a growing need: men were drifting, marriages were breaking down, and families were losing their footing in faith.

Out of that burden, New Path Ministries was launched to call men back to God’s design, restore families, and create spaces where faith is lived out every day.

Expanding the vision...

What began with a passion for men’s discipleship quickly grew into a broader movement. Through The Path men’s ministry, New Path Worship, the New Path New You Podcast, and the Abundantly Expectant Marriage Podcast, Ron and his wife Rachel have been building tools, teaching, and communities that equip people to live transformed lives.

The vision has expanded even further with Alex Pillischafske joining the mission through his bold new podcast, Altared Call.

Stop settling for less and start living with purpose. Discover who God uniquely created you to be, learn to hear His voice clearly, and embrace His divine direction for your life. Whether you’re looking for practical tools, spiritual inspiration, or a bold challenge to pursue God authentically,
 
Together with New Path Ministries, Alex is equipping men everywhere to pursue God’s glory—relentlessly.

Where we are headed...

The future of New Path Ministries is bigger than one man, one podcast, or one group. Our vision is to see a generation of men leading boldly, marriages thriving, churches strengthened, and communities transformed through discipleship and worship. We are building the New Path Bible + Community App to connect believers, creating resources for churches that want to disciple men effectively, and equipping families worldwide with worship, teaching, and community.

God’s not done — and neither are we. This is just the beginning. Get on the Path with us.

Meet the team.
