What is a Christian Life Coach?

What is a Christian Life Coach? This profession is relatively new, but it has its roots in traditional life coaching. What is a life coach? Life coaches are professionals who guide a person toward a specific goal in life that the person wants to reach. Typically, people reach out to life coaches when they have an idea of where they want to go in life but are unsure of how to get there.

A Christian life coach is equipped to deal specifically with the spiritual struggles a Christian may face in accomplishing the mission God has set before them. Christian life coaches help Christians discover their spiritual identities and advise them on how to best pursue their spiritual goals. Some of those goals could include implementing the Bible more at home, learning more Godly methods of decision-making, or how a person can more openly express their faith. These are just a few things that qualified Christian life coaches, like the ones at NuWell Christian Counseling, can assist a Christian in achieving.

The very concept of Christian life coaching can be found in the Bible! In 1 Thessalonians 5:5, Christians are commanded to “encourage one another and build each other up.” We are told to “carry each other’s burdens.”  In Galatians 6:2. The Bible calls on Christians to help our fellow believers lead the best life they can, and Christian life coaches do precisely that. We all need help in achieving goals sometimes, and as Christians, we’re all in this together through our fellowship as believers!
