(Review of 1st edition)

Dr. Gary R. Collins, a well-known author in the field of counseling, takes the successful principles of coaching and gives them a God-centered application. Broader in scope than either mentoring or discipling, Christian coaching helps people find God’s vision for their lives and learn to live accordingly.

Through stories, insights, and interviews with influential coaches, Collins presents a model of Christian coaching. The principles can be used to bring vision, passion and a sense of purpose to your own life, as well as equip you to guide others. You may want to become a professional coach or simply use coaching in your personal ministry or church. Christian Coaching will help you learn the characteristics of an effective coach, how to build those characteristics into your life, and how to coach and lead others with the same leadership style Jesus demonstrated—servant leadership.

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.

Price: $19.95
By Matthew Kelly
Hardcover, 158 pages
Rating:

In the style of Patrick Lencioni's leadership fables, Kelly explains how taking an interest in peoples' dreams is good business. The Dream Manager is about a company that hires coaches to help deal with high turnover--by creating a "Dream Manager" position to help employees find and follow their dreams. It's a great example of how coaching can be used at an organizational level instead of just with a few individuals. It's a great introduction to coaching for managers and business leaders, and an inspiring read for coaches who want to build a coaching culture in organizations.

By Keith E. Webb

In The Coach Model, Keith Webb introduces a five-step process powered by questions. Dividing his model based on the acronym C.O.A.C.H. he pairs each step with question asking techniques that will, as Keith states, “equip you to ask powerful and helpful questions.”

The five steps of Keith’s model include the following:

  • C = connect. Building rapport and trust with the person you are talking to and following up on action steps from previous meetings.
  • O = outcome. The intended results the coachee would like to achieve during the conversation.
  • A = awareness. Reflective dialogue intended to produce increased perspective for the coachee.
  • C = course. Helping the coachee create action steps.
  • H = highlights. Reviewing the parts of the conversation that the coachee found most meaningful to reinforce insights and strengthen learning.

The Heart of a Coach

By Tony Stoltzfus

Coaching is more than asking a good question or listening more intently. It’s more than holding someone accountable or helping a person set action steps. Skills are important, but the bedrock of great coaching is what’s in your heart as a coach. I often say to new coaches, “If you have the right heart, you can make all kinds of technique mistakes and the client will still be transformed; but technique without heart is manipulation.”

Great coaching comes from a conscious imitation of the posture Jesus takes as our advocate. Think for a moment about how God works with you on the change issues in your life. If you go back to the beginning, before you ever became a Christian, God had already decided he wanted to work with you. In fact, Ephesians 4 states that while you were still God’s enemy, he loved you—enough to choose you to become part of the bride for his son. We hadn’t done any changing yet, we were an infinite distance from what we needed to be in order to marry into God’s family, and yet God believed in what we could become.

But God didn’t stop with just seeing our potential...
