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 Christian 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

move forward, and
they'll be relying on you.
They have to know you

When you earn the Certified Christian Leadership Coach (CCLC) designation from Coach Approach Ministries, you can have full confidence that you have the skills to coach in a way that is truly valuable and consistent with the best practices in the coaching industry, the principles of Christianity, and your own calling to transform lives.

Recently the Sunday school class I teach took a deep dive in C.S. Lewis’s classic The Great Divorce. In this imaginative exploration of the afterlife, Lewis gives us a parade of unforgettable images, but none startled me more than the herd of unicorns. Yes, you read that right. If you haven’t read the book (or
A few years ago, I found myself totally dreading a client session, which is not normal for me. I love coaching. But I had been coaching Mike for almost five years. Every third Thursday at 10 a.m., like clockwork. And that was the problem: it felt like clockwork. Mike would show up, talk through a

Let’s clear something up that confuses many would-be coaches: coaching is not counseling. You’d think that would be obvious, but it’s not—especially to people who are
I appreciate clear agreements. When you drive through at Steak-n-Shake, they tell you, “This isn’t fast-food.” I know not to expect to whiz right through the
Since we founded CAM nearly 20 years ago, we’ve equipped thousands of coaches to make a kingdom difference in the lives of the people they coach.
