How to find a Christian life coach
If you want to get a Christian life coach who will be the right fit, it is going to be important that you spend the time doing proper research and interviewing a handful of candidates.
Some questions you may want to ask yourself are:
1. Do their values align with mine?
Of course it goes without saying that you want to find someone who is Christian. But these days, there are many interpretations to these beliefs so it is important that you find someone who shares your same values.
2. What areas do they specialize in?
There are many different areas that coaches can specialize in so it is necessary that you find someone who focuses in the area you most need help with. For example, some specialize in working with college students, females, elders, helping people with their career, depression, and so on.
3. What delivery method do they use?
Depending on the type of coaching you seek, some providers work in person while others work online or via workshops. So make sure you have a clear understanding of their delivery method.
4. How much do they charge?
Because some coaches have been practicing many years and are considered “Master Coaches”, they will charge a lot more than those who may only have a few years experience.
5. What type of experience do they have?
Every coach brings a different level of experience to the table with them. Some have helped over 1000 clients while others may have only worked with ten or twenty.
6. Do they use any other skills or techniques?
These days, many coaches are well versed in other areas of expertise. For example, some coaches are also counselors, nutritionists, or personal trainers and therefore can bring this experience to your coaching sessions.
Christian Life Coach Reviews
So far I like what I’ve read. Christ in Counseling is of the utmost importance. As a Chaplain I couldn’t serve without Christ working through me. The world can comfort for a day but Christ will comfort today and forever. Christ our comforter the great physician. God bless.
I am expanding directly proportional to the expansion of the Universe. I will always be thankful to Lisa for showing me the direction towards the light when I could have stayed stuck facing the darkness.
Biblically solid. So helpful and informative. We are parenting four children who we adopted from foster care, and we are so thankful for the resources CCEF is producing
I have worked with Carrie for over a year and I feel light years ahead of where I was when I started working with her. Carrie is compassionate and understanding, as well as professional and objective. I highly recommend Carrie to anyone who is seeking guidance on making positive changes in their life.
I’ve been so blessed by this ministry personally, and in the work I do as Congregational Care Coordinator at my church. May The Lord continue to bless you this ministry for the good and extension of Christ’s Kingdom.
This is the place to look if you’re seriously looking for a truthful, faithful and scripturally sound counseling and guidance to many of our modern day personal and social challenges.
I started working with Carrie due to some personal struggles. She provided me with clear precise information I needed to work on to achieve my goals. Not only did she speak clearly, she provided outstanding follow up with a caring and genuine attitude. I would recommend her to anyone searching for a life coach or just needing clarification on where they are going in life.
Krista was amazing! She really helped me at my journey to become the person that I want to be. She is great listener and advisor! Thank you so much Krista! I am so looking forward seeing you again
Godly transformation by the teaching of the word of God in practical lessons and applications. Thereby santifaction by the the renewing of the mind in Christ Jesus. How to truly make disciples by loveing others as God has loved us.
Praise the Lord Jesus for this wonderful resource. A most welcomed resource for many of us my kind who have also been called into the Biblical Counseling Movement but are very far-off training opportunities or resource materials etc.!
