The goals and achievements of Christian Coaching, will put you on a path of self discovery and help you realize an abundant life!
Christian Coaching is a biblical approach to empowering others, and is not about telling others what to do, but helping them discover for themselves what God is calling them to do. It is the process of coming alongside a person to help them discover God’s agenda for their life and then cooperating with the Holy Spirit to see that agenda becomes a reality. What is the Goal of Christian Coaching? It is to help someone succeed. What is success? It is finding out what God wants you to do and then doing it. Each person needs to discover for themselves what it is that God wants them to do. Coaches aid in that process, but they don’t direct it. Coaching is in wide use in corporate America because of the successes it facilitates. In recent years, churches are beginning to experience the value of coaching for the same reason. Coach’s help people develop their God-given potential so that they grow individually and make a valuable contribution to the advancement of the Kingdom of God. Excellent coaches endeavor to behave in a way that is consistent, inspiring and flexible by modeling skills and values and discipline others.
What makes coaching powerful? To have a partner whose only interest is your success. Christian Coaching is a biblical approach to empowering others. People are at least twice as fruitful when in coaching relationships. Good coaching empowers people to discern God’s will and take the appropriate next steps for their personal development. Some of the benefits of Christian Coaching are:
•Providing encouragement for the (Christian) journey
•Cultivating wisdom and strategic insights
•Discovering breakthrough opportunities
•Maintaining focus on the truly important
•Transforming vision into reality
