Introductory Coaching Class: May

31 – June 2

By Rev. Ken Kessler

• What helps a person follow through with their commitment and find accountability for their decision?

• What does a coaching conversation look like?

• How do you get started in a coaching relationship with someone?

• How is coaching different from other disciplines, such as mentoring and counseling?

Have you ever thought about becoming a coach? Here’s an opportunity not only to explore this possibility, but also to start the journey with “Christian Coaching!”

Begin your exploration May 3, 2023, at 2 p.m., with Rev. Dr. Ken Kessler, who will lead the training, for a free Zoom conversation about “Why Coach Training and What’s Involved?” Then, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday morning, May 31 – June 2, also in a virtual format, learn how to use these ministry skills to impact your relationships with neighbors, colleagues, church members, and strangers.

In this introductory, 16-hour class, “Foundations of Christian Coaching,” Rev. Dr. Kessler will discuss:

• How do you listen constructively to others?

• What powerful questions do you use in the conversation to move the person to think beyond their present situation?

• How do you help someone make a decision and act on it?

The cost for this class is regularly $575, but you may register at the rate of $300 through your DCBC connection.
