Introduction: I. Attention-getter According to Angela Goodeve, Professional Life Coach; Board Member with the Women for Change Coaching Community; and Cofounder of Energy of Yes, Life Coaching is not about giving advice but using their skills to uncover the hidden truths that are typically right there inside every person (and perhaps just need to be gently “teased out”). 1 II.

IV. Purpose or Thesis Statement Life Coaches with a biblical foundation could exercise the kingdom principle of encouragement and empowerment by using spiritual insight combined with practical applications to build them up. V. Preview Statement During the minutes that follow, I will explain and discuss this particular profession, showing you first, how life coaching compared to general training is valuable and more effective, second, that a life coach uses his/her skills to cultivate the hidden truths 1 already inside their audience and, third, the job of a life coach presents a major platform conducive to reaching a mass audience for the purpose of spiritual empowerment through practical application and scriptural fundaments. Transition: Let’s take a closer look at this: Body: I. Main Point 1. Life coaching in comparison to general training has proven to be more valuable and effective. a. According to a study published in the Public Management, training alone increases productivity by approximately 22.4% while training combined with weekly life coaching increases productivity by 88%. 2 b. The International Coaching Federation (ICF) conducted a study that produced statistics proving the effectiveness of coaching. For example, here are 4 benefits identified by clients from an ICF survey: 80% of clients improved their self- confidence, 73% of clients improved their relationships, 72% of clients improved their communication skills and 67% of clients improved their work-life balance. 3 c. According to the 2009 ICF Global Coaching Client Study, “companies that use or have used professional coaching for business reasons have seen a median return on investment of seven times their initial investment. Individual clients reported a median return on investment of 3.44 times their investment. 1 Transition: This brings me to my second point. II. Main Point 2. A life coach uses his/her skills to cultivate the hidden truths already inside their audience. a. According to the International Coaching Foundation (ICF), people hire a life coach because (1) they want more, (2) they want to grow and (3) they want it easier. 2 b.

Your coach can help you: 1. Get clear about your goals. 2. Identify blind spots. 3. Be accountable. 4. Focus your development efforts. 5. Gain a competitive advantage 6. Acquire leadership skills. 7. Increase engagement. 8. Feel happier.” 4 c. A life coach helps their client to (1) identify his or her values, that will supercharge his or her energy and inspiration to meet his or her goals; (2) identify any needs that the individual has that are not being met to ensure he or she does not have any energy drains in his or her life; (3) acknowledge who a person really is, what he or she has accomplished, and what he or she may be becoming; and (4) finally by helping an individual to gain the clarity he or she needs so that personal answers to questions being asked about the present or future are crystal clear, including the steps needed to take along the way to fulfilling any expectations or dreams. 1 d. Studies have shown that clients who have employed the expertise of a life coach have learned to face issues that accentuated excuses; come to the realization that the path they were taking was not what they really wanted; learn to remove the responsibility for tasks that weren’t necessarily theirs; and compelled to take action towards changes to make work better for them. 1 Transition: This brings me to my final point.

The job of a life coach presents a major platform conducive to reaching a mass audience for the purpose of spiritual empowerment through practical application and scriptural fundaments. a. God values the uplifting of our fellow brothers and sisters (1 Thessalonians 5:11; Hebrews 3:13; Hebrews 10:23-25; Ephesians 4:29; Proverbs 27:17) and the b.
