Vision
Faith Coaches help their coaching partners recognize and overcome the gaps between where they are and where they would like to be. This happens as coaching partners set goals and discover the motivation and resources to achieve those goals. Coaches from one2one help people get “unstuck”.

What is Faith Coaching?
Faith coaching is not what you typically think of when you think of coaching.  At East Lake faith coaches listen, ask questions and encourage their coaching partners to move forward in a personalized plan to become like Jesus.
Coaching conversations focus on topics of concern to the person being coached, which may include any aspect of life. The coaching process deals with forward motion toward goals, not on healing of past problems (counseling) or imparting knowledge (teaching or mentoring). It is based on the belief that God's Spirit enables people being coached to grow spiritually; the coach's role is to help partners recognize and respond to what God is doing in their lives.

Why be Coached?
The coaching process allows you as the person being coached to:

• Take better, smarter, and more actions.
• Understand your needs, values, and purpose.
• Stretch yourself.
• Make better decisions.
• Be more aware of what God is doing in your life.
• Make progress towards the goals you have set.
