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.

I read Eugene Peterson the way I drink bourbon – slowly and not that often. His writing is not dense, but it is deep. I don’t find myself highlighting something on every page, or even every other page. But the things I do highlight are meaningful. And in pretty much every one of his
In my ebook The Language of Coaching, I compare learning to coach with learning a new language. It’s not that we learn new vocabulary, syntax, grammar and alphabet, but we do learn a new way to speak the language we already know. For new coaches, one of the most challenging aspects of learning this
My mother was born in 1933, and her generation has a different mindset about doctors. It goes something like this: “If the doctor can’t guess what’s wrong with me, I’m not going to tell her.” I took her to the doctor because she wasn’t sleeping as well as she wanted. The doctor came into
