Gospel Coaching

 

A Gospel of Grace-centered coaching is designed to assist the planter in planning and executing the launching of a church that connects lost people to Christ through various means of missional engagement, builds up leaders in spiritual formation and community, and becomes transforming agents of God's graciousness and generosity in the city, region and nations of the world.

 

"Church planter coaching is a process of imparting encouragement and skills to the planter in order to succeed in the task of starting a church, in the context of a gospel friendship."

Dr. Tom Wood

Can you improve your effectiveness?

If you could do one thing that would improve your effectiveness by at least 64% would you do it?

Studies show that good coaching increases the effectiveness of a leader by between 64% and 80%

"To be the best next generational leader you can be, you must enlist the help of others.  Self evaluation is helpful, but evaluation from someone else is essential.  You need a leadership coach.  An effective leadership coach, Observes, Instructs, and Inspires."

Andy Stanley

The Role of the Coach

CMM Coaching is Gospel Centered. The Coach's role is to help the Planter launch a healthy, Christ-centered, gospel saturated church which is being used by God to transform the region.  Yes, we have a methodology, but its wired to the Gospel of grace!

The Planter's role is to prepare for each scheduled meeting to ask questions, seek counsel, and remain teachable.

We believe coaching is "Situational". There are four types of coaching interactions that may be used as needed:

Facilitator will help you process and implement your plan

Solution Giver will offer you counsel and experience on decisions you face

Resource Provider will provide you with appropriate resources or experts for your special needs

Catalyst will "kick you into action".

 


 

"Coaching may very well be the single most important ingredient for success in a new church plant....Having someone to guide new church planters along the sometimes difficult path of ministry can be invaluable."
