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.
Great coaching requires three key elements:
Just because you think
you can coach doesn't
mean you actually have
what it takes.
You have to develop
the skills.
Having the skills isn't
enough on it's own.
You will have to learn to trust
the coaching process.
You have to know you
have what it takes.
The people you coach
need you to help them
move forward, and
they'll be relying on you.
They have to know you
have what it takes.

How does innovation happen? Usually by surprise. We often say, “You’ve stumbled onto something,” which means you got there by accident.

Cruising my news feeds recently, a story caught my eye. The musician Billy Joel’s name was in the headline and, although I wouldn’t call myself a raving fan, I appreciate his gift. It made me stop and read the story. Apparently Joel was riding his motorcycle (I ride a motorcycle!) through Long Island, NY
A few months ago, my mother’s brother died. I told her what we are all taught to say in times of grief: “I’m sorry for your loss.” My mother is one of the kindest and most gracious people I’ve ever known, but her response took me off guard: “I hate when people say that.”
