Christian Grief Coach Training and Certification Becomes Available

Who will meet the needs of countless individuals worldwide, who are suffering from loss? Grief coaching from a biblical worldview is the most empowering coaching available to help others move from the depths of their loss-related sorrow to a newfound life of daily joy.

There are many types of losses we are forced  to cope with and above are just a few. They are different one from another, yet each one can cause devastating pain and keep us from focusing, working

effectively and relating properly. The pain of loss can cause us to react in unproductive and unhealthy ways, unless we deliberately choose a more productive path.

Where do we struggle with grief?

1. Loss of a spouse, child, family member or friend
2. Natural disaster (ie. Jan., 2010 earthquake in Haiti)
3. Loss of a marriage
4. Loss of health
5. Loss of a home to foreclosure
6. Loss of a beloved family pet
7. Loss of a job
8. Financial loss due to unscrupulous dealings
9. Loss of a relationship

and more ...

You may be thinking to yourself that you don't coach or work in a grief-related area nor do you expect to. Please understand that every one of us will be affected directly or indirectly with losses during our lifetime. The question remains: Will we be prepared? And will we stand ready to help those we work with, when a tragedy happens to them? Our world sadly, has not become a more comforting place. Now is the time to get trained.

Christian Grief Coach Training and Certification is ideal for:

1. A new coach seeking Christian Grief Coach training and certification.
2. An experienced Christian coach seeking credentials in this specialty
3. A Christian coach at any level who wants grief coach training using an uncompromised, Biblical foundation.
4. A pastor, ministry or lay worker whose position will be enhanced by solid, Biblical grief coach training.
5. Someone seeking personal growth, challenge and training to help others in their family, circle of friends or community overcome grief and the pain of loss.

Why grief coaching instead of counseling? While counseling can be very helpful with deep-seated emotional
issues or in cases where clinical issues have developed, biblical coaching is designed to help the client overcome more quickly by leaning on the power of the Holy Spirit to help them make those changes in their life that the Word of God tells us, will enable us to live a full, joyful and yes, abundant life!   READ MORE

What's The Buzz in Christian Coaching?Christian Coaching "Manifesto"

It's here... the book that is. Debuting on December 1, 2009, the Comprehensive Christian Coach Handbook is available and sales have surpassed all expections. Not only are there books on their way to almost every state of the United States and Canadian Provinces, an unbelievable amount of orders have come in from South Africa, Sweden, UK, Australia, Japan and even Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The last country, Dubai (or UAE) is known to be almost 100% Muslim, yet Christian coaching is moving forward there!

Why should this book make such waves across the world? Because many believe the contents of this book constitute a Christian Coaching "Manifesto". (I had to look up the contemporary meaning of manifesto and here is what http://www.thefreedictionary.com/ definition stated: "A public declaration of principles, policies, or intentions..." Yes, if that is a manifesto, then this book fits the definition.

Gone are philosophies and techniques integrated with new age and secular thought. What has taken their place is the uncompromising, unapologetic faith in God and His Word. Pastor Keith Krueger stated, "This book is even better than expected. It is full of Scripture. There is no doubt the Holy Spirit inspired this work. The book will be a legacy."

If you want to know more about what all the buzz is about, then visit the book's website at http://www.christiancoachhandbook.com/.

Rave reader reviews have started to arrive and I expect to be posting some of them soon.

Pray for Juan's Journey!

As many of you already know, we were able to raise the funds to pay for Juan Churion airfare from Venezuela to the conference.

Just as we completed the fundraiser this past Friday, we learned the news that Venezuela had cut off diplomatic ties with the US. We first learned this from Juan, when we phoned him to give him the great news. Then I Googled "Venezuela ambassador" and up came a news report posted Friday, 9-12-08, explaining the circumstances. Here is a link to one of the reports from the Washington Post:

Please join us in praying that Juan is able to obtain his travel visa and join us at the conference this year!

Love and blessings,

Advanced Coach Training at Tele-Summit on May 1, 2

Attention: Experienced Coaches!

We have some awesome training just for you! Is your philosophy to coach your clients to the safe side of their discomfort as quickly as possible? We have a major shift in store for you.

Tony Stoltzfus, reknowned Christian coach trainer will offer a session designed to help your clients through life events and transitions rather than out of them. Frequently our greatest growth occurs on our journey through our trials and Tony bases this advanced training on Romans 8:28.

In order to participate, you need to register while there is still space available.

We only have room for 250 attendees and seats began filling up as soon as we opened registration, so don't delay! Register today.

When you balance the cost of participation vs what training will do to enhance your practice, income and kingdom contributions, there simply is no reason not to participate. God needs you to perform an excellent service and excellence is only possible when we know what we are doing. Once we get inline with our purpose and IF that purpose is working in some Christian coaching capacity, we must be prepared and equipped to meet the challenges of today's life situations.

REGISTRATION OPENS for Christian Coaching Tele-Summit May 1, 2

I am really excited to announce that registration opened on March 17th for our first major event of the year - the 2008 Christian Coaching Tele-Summit.

What is a telesummit? It is a huge, top-level conference call, where you get to hear presentations by the best coaches and Master level trainers in the industry. What's so great is that you don't need to travel anywhere to get all this must-know information. You will receive a workbook and session itinerary, so you can call in from your office or home phone. Just call from wherever you are... Make sure you have a quiet place so you can take notes and focus. The program promises to be life-transforming. We are even offering a CD set of the Tele-Summit for a small additional fee, if you order it at the time of registration.

Call times will be confirmed later, however to allow for an international audience, most call times will likely be 10 am, 1 pm, 4 pm and 6 or 7 pm Eastern (NY) time. Since Europe is 5-6 hours ahead of us, they won't have to stay up all night.

We will have some world-class presenters including Tony Stoltzfus, who is one of the most prominent leaders and trainers for Christian coaching skills today. Tony has been inspiring Christian leaders for more years, than I even knew coaching existed. You simply can't miss this phenomenal event.

But, registration is limited to only the first 250! So if you want to participate, you must register early. Registrations started arriving within minutes of announcing that registration had opened.

Just visit http://www.christiancoachingtelesummit.com/ for all the details and registration.
