 What is Christian Coaching?
Christian coaching is the most effective form of discipleship. It is a partnership between a client and a coach that takes discipleship to the next level. Christian coaches come alongside people and help them "walk their talk" in all areas of their lives. During coaching sessions, a Christian coach will:
- Challenge
- Motivate
- Listen
- Ask powerful questions
- Get out of the way and let the Holy Spirit do the work
- Pray with and for clients
- Hold onto clients dreams when they lose sight of them
- Give clients time to think
- Give appropriate assignments to help clients move forward
- Create powerful gaps for clients to move into
- Help clients stick to the facts instead of the interpretations in their lives
- Give new perspectives
- Tell stories
- Give examples
- Question assumptions
- Tell the truth
- Use appropriate Scriptures
- Hold clients accountable to congruency between who they are and how they show up in the world
- Be non-judgmental and non- authoritative
If you are a person who:
- seems to always know what to ask and say in a situation
- likes to ask questions
- is curious about , and enjoys, people
- enjoys and delights in seeing and helping people grow
- tends to have people come and "tell you everything"
- is already in ministry as a pastor, discipler, teacher
- is already a coach, but would like some training in distinctly Christian coaching
A CCI coach believes that:
- All people are created in the image of God.
- All people have immeasurable potential.
- God does have a plan for every person based on who He created us to be.
- We live in a fallen world, but God is more powerful than that fallen world.
- Lost hope can be reborn.
- Self-imposed limits can be exposed for what they are and released.
- Jesus Christ is pre-eminent.
- We can be Jesus with "skin on".
- The kingdom of God is not a matter of talk, but of power. (I Cor.4:20)
