The Whats, Hows, And Whys Of Christian Life Coaching

By Edward Patterson


People are heavily sensitized and emotive beings. Even the sober, serious, impassive, and seemingly hardhearted ones are what they are due to some affective experience in the past. It therefore follows that influencing factors collate to set and change the direction of a persons life. There are certain cases when these experiences are not at all good and desirable. We now have the power, though, to ease our burdens, set resolutions, and change our lives for good with solutions like christian life coaching.

Coaches subscribing to this particular field are somewhat synonymous with personal trainers. There are all the reasons in the world to need one. For example, you might particularly be going through a rough patch in your life. It could be that you feel stuck and uninspired and need a nudge to a new direction. Perhaps youre experiencing difficulties in your relationships, or maybe you think you have certain characteristics and personality traits that need straightening out.

Humans, as we are, form resolutions all the time. But more often than not, they slip out as easily as water cupped in ones hands. We need some nifty operant conditioning to get our acts up and set our paths straight.

Life coaching in the Christian sense, aim to make their participants or clients discover who they are, through Christ. Thats as much as their posters pitch. Anyway, this professes to empower and equip individuals to be able to be and do all that is outlined in gods purpose. More specifically, it aims to demolish certain mindsets that hold one back, and more practically, it aims to get things done, see things through, and make people succeed where theyve faltered or failed.

However, its a perfectly human trait being such master procrastinators. We know we can put off for later things that are too taxing and trying and time consuming. And we may just be riddled with too much stress that we cannot dissect and separate one thing from another. For example, we may be discerning enough to know that theres something off in our lives. But it takes another level of discernment to point out what EXACTLY is causing these problems.

In this case, it might be advisable and expedient to consult a life coach. This will delegate all the thinking, comprehending, and setting of plans and courses of action to another person. You would just conveniently be a sheep to a certain shepherd and trust all your worries to this caretaker and protector. This will also ensure that youre being accounted for. So its bye for good to all those pretexts and excuses of setting the transformation for later.

Life coaches customize their approach to each clients needs. Theyre not after telling you what to do per se, or else teaching you new concepts. Rather, they believe that you have all the inspiration and resources at your fingertips, and you need only a little nudging and enhancing to make full use of them. Coaches mentor and counsel through teaching, advising, modeling, and guiding. They have the educated template on their minds on what constitutes good living and good practices and have the skills to uncover underlying root causes and some such. They work to affirm a persons inner capability of achieving balance in their lives through their own willingness and volition.

Practitioners in this line are many and sundry. What youd have to look out for to determine the right coach is whether or not they are duly certified and experienced. You might also like to establish that they have the right focus, or so called niche, to suit your needs and particularities. A career or ministry experience might seem advantageous to you. The greatest factor for consideration, however, is whether or not you actually feel comfortable in baring your heart out to this person.

In the end, the principles of a good, stress free, and fulfilling life are very much common and the same the whole world over. Its all about getting rid of all the toxicity, underscoring the good points, adhering to good values and practices, and treating ones fellowmen with the respect and dignity theyre due. When these points are all faithfully and consistently subscribed to, a good life is literally just around the corner.
