What is
Christian Life Coaching?
Most people know what a coach is, but there are very few who know what a
Life Coach is. A Life Coach is someone who comes into your life for a period of
time to come alongside you and journey with you to help you discover your
life’s purpose. A Christian Life Coach is someone who comes alongside you to
help you discover God’s purpose for your life, and run to obtain it.
In this modern world there are many people who have given up on their
dreams and goals because they believe that it would be too hard to obtain that
dream or to accomplish that goal. This is the reason that people seek out a
Life Coach. At Freedom Life Coaching, our coaches seek to help you rediscover
those dreams and to help you accomplish those goals that you feel God is
leading you to. Freedom Life Coaching will use prayer, scriptures,
encouragement, and more prayer to lead and guide you to these goals and help
you fulfill your God-given dreams.
It is important to live the life that our God has planned for us from
before our very existence. There are several issues that might be keeping us
back from fulfilling our God given purpose, issues like:
Your Identity: Who do you say
you are? Your past may be holding you back from making certain decisions to go
forth and capture your dreams. People and circumstances may have led you to
believe that you weren’t worthy of your dreams. But who does God say you are?
God says that you are His Masterpiece
(Ephesians 2:10, NLT) and that you are “fearfully
and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139:14, ESV). God loves you so much that he
sent His One and Only Son to die a horrible death upon a cross, setting you
free from your sinful past. Imagine how wonderful your life would be if you
lived in this freedom! Freedom Life Coaching can help you discover your
God-given identity, and live according to who God says you are.
Your Values: What is most
important to you? These are your values, how you make decisions, your core
operating system. When these values are identified it brings clarity and
purpose to your life. Recognizing where your values aren’t being met, and
realizing that your values and those of others don’t coincide, can bring
fulfillment and understanding to the way you live. Aligning your values with
those that God wants you to have will bring clarity to your life. Freedom Life
Coaching can provide you with guidance through scripture to discover those
values.
Balancing Your Life: Is your
life full of clutter, out of balance, be it mental, emotional or physical? Are
there “Time Bandits” that rob you of the time you should be spending more
productively? Do you tend to be preoccupied with tasks that seem urgent, but
aren’t really, robbing you of taking care of the really important things? Jesus
encourages us not to “worry about
tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself” Matthew 6:34, NIV) and to
understand His priorities for our lives. Freedom Life Coaching can help you
regain your balance, re-order your priorities, rid yourself of “Time Bandits”,
and de-clutter your life to rediscover your God-given purpose.
Your Purpose: Do you know
where you are going in life, or what God’s purpose is for you? It may be hard
to look at difficulties through difficult times and learn from them, but there
is a reason for everything that you have been through. God wants you to learn
from your past, not live in it, move into the present and grow toward your
future with His purpose in mind. Having someone to come alongside you and help
you process these things can be very empowering. We are God’s “workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for
good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them”
(Ephesians 2:10, ESV), We at Freedom Life Coaching would love to help you
explore what God has prepared for you to do.
Your Strengths and Abilities: What
are you good at? What makes you unique? Since we are “fearfully and wonderfully
made” (Psalm 139:14, ESV), and embracing that truth enables us to live in
freedom as ourselves, without comparing ourselves to others, we each have a
unique role to play in this life – “you
are the body of Christ and individually members of it” (1 Corinthians
12:27, ESV). Let the coaches at Freedom Life Coaching help you use your
strengths and abilities that God gave you to discover the part you are to play
in the Body of Christ.
The Obstacles: What is
holding you back from discovering God’s purpose and plan for your life? Are you
conditioned to a cycle of fruitless behaviors or negative emotions and unable
to break free? Jesus said, “The thief
comes only to steal, kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have
it abundantly” (John 10:10, ESV).
The coaches at Freedom Life Coaching are passionate about coming alongside
you and helping you grow into your identity as God’s Masterpiece (Ephesians
2:10, ESV), and living the life that God purposed for you from the very
beginning of time.
What is the best thing about Christian Life Coaching? It empowers YOU to
come up with the solutions yourself, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and the
help of a board certified life coach. We here at Freedom Life Coaching don’t
have all the answers, but we will help you discover the answers by exploring
the scriptures together and by encouraging you to take the steps toward your
goals and dreams. We will challenge and inspire you, encourage you under the
supervision of the Holy Spirit, to see yourself as God sees you, be your
cheerleader and hold you accountable for the changes you are going to make.
