For a long time, most church leaders have relied on various forms of training as the primary means of preparing and enabling their teams to deliver effective children’s ministries. Generally, this has not happened…training ideas and new concepts tend to fade just as dust gathers on notebooks and binders on the shelves back in the church office.

Coaching acknowledges that the best ideas and most valuable information will not satisfy their intended purpose if they are not put into action in a meaningful way. Coaching extends the value of training by placing the learning into a specific organizational context and translating it into effective plans of action that focus on results for your church. When the ideas and concepts from training are actually put into practice, in support of achieving critical objectives, real ministry capabilities are built and the maximum value is obtained.

The integrated combination of training and coaching can be a powerful force for building the ministry capabilities of your team and your church.
