Expressing and Expanding the Kingdom of God through Coaching
Like many before you, God has been bringing people to you for years – people seeking direction, in need of encouragement, or sometimes just asking for advice. You knew you were called to help, but you didn’t have a name for it.
Now you do: “Coaching“
Our coach training programs give you the skills to expand your calling and natural gifts, equipping you to transform lives.

they'll be relying on you.

They can also be frustrating –
I recently started working with a large employer in my area to help them develop leaders throughout the organization. They do not have a culture of strong commitment, accountability, or results. Instead, their culture is one that over-does-it when it comes to personal autonomy: nobody can tell anyone else what to do. A major
The esteemed 20th-century Baptist preacher John Claypool once preached a sermon titled “God is an Amateur.” He used the word “amateur” in the original sense of the word: not as a novice or inexperienced person, but one who does something for the love of it. God’s only motivation is love. My vision – indeed
