Christian Coaching School Podcast EPISODE 00 - Introduction

Welcome to the Christian Coaching School Podcast.  I have
wanted to do this podcast for quite some time but it had to be
the right time.


If you are in my inner circle, you may be aware I have been busy
writing the 2nd edition of my book, the Comprehensive
Christian Coaching Handbook, Essential Guide to Spirit-Led
Coaching and Business Success.  whew … long name …
 


The first edition was actually published back in 2009 and at that
time it was a manifesto of sorts.  Prior to my book,
Christian coaching had been taught almost the same as secular
coaching, but scripture was added for the Christian audience.


And … you and I both know what happens when you add random
scripture to validate your secular point.  It becomes far
LESS about what God wants and MORE about what a person wants.


Because of this I had known for a very long time that I would
eventually write a textbook as the foundation for an actual
scripturally-based Christian Life Coach training program. The
book we had used was no longer in print and the truth is, I could
not begin then, to offer compromised training to our
students. 


When I published the book and thereby pulled back the curtain on
what had come before, there were a few unhappy coach trainers out
there because the truth had been revealed.  But I believe we
have to do what we feel is right in this world and that takes
courage a lot of the time because the enemy is never happy when
God’s truth is revealed. So despite that, God prevailed and His
word was laid as the true foundation.


The Christian life coach training that we offer at the
Professional Christian Coaching and Counseling Academy aka PCCCA,
at http://pccca.org is based on my book, so you can be sure that
the content of the training is pure.


As I say in my book, I wrote it because God inspired it, every
step of the way. I am just telling you this because I think it’s
important for you to know who you are listening
to. And I promise to keep you updated when I get close to
publishing the 2nd edition.


So … what else can I tell you about me and what we do here … ?


Since 2003 we have trained thousands and thousands of Christian
life coaches worldwide at PCCCA and we have graduates on every
continent. I have also trained many if not most, of the current
Christian coach trainers. Most of them are even now on my email
list.  And if that’s you … I know you are out there
LOL 


And hey, it’s all good. I hope what we create here continues to
bless you and those you teach. We all serve the same Lord after
all. Right?


We also hosted the first annual Christian Coaching Week this year
which was a great success with participants from all over the
world. To join in the event next year, just visit the website at
