Eight Principles of Life-on-Life Leadership focuses on coaching discipleship group and small group leaders. Based on The Master Plan of Evangelism by Robert Coleman, this book wraps Coleman's eight enduring discipling principles with nearly 100 coaching tools and exercises to help leaders apply those principles to small group life.

The manual offers a step-by-step approach to coaching your group leaders. You start by identifying a coaching agenda with an assessment of how the group is doing in each of the eight key areas Coleman's identifies (which cover selecting, training and reproducing leaders). The leader picks an area to focus on, and the manual walks you through the process of creating a growth goal in that area. The coaching tools and exercises provide ready-made action steps, giving the coach something substantial to offer. If your coaches wonder what to do when they meet with a group leader, this book can help.

For too long, Christians have taken a delivery approach to spiritual formation: we memorize key verses and snappy concepts to spring on our un-churched neighbors; we provide fill-in-the-blank study courses for believers who want to grow in faith; we strive to tell, teach and transfer what we know.

But there's a better approach. By using a conversational, coaching approach to spiritual formation, you can open wide the doors that help others expand their commitment to Christ. Easy to learn and to apply, the concepts in Faith Coaching help you to leverage the power of coaching conversations to help people find and follow a genuine spiritual path.
