Imago Christi Spiritual Formation Coaching Manual
We are excited to share with you the Imago Christi Spiritual Formation Coaching Manual to assist you in your ministry of helping others.
We hear from many spiritual directors, Christian mentors, and coaches about the need for effective tools to help others with specific aspects of the Christian journey. While a good listening ear and general support and guidance can prove helpful, we have all experienced times when those we help need more. People need specific coaching to understand their journey process, to develop their prayer life, to use specific spiritual disciplines consistent with their needs, and to develop a clear understanding of how to cooperate with God in the Holy Spirit’s ongoing work of transformation.
This coaching manual contains both the necessary knowledge for the topic as well as coaching guidelines and questions for the coaching process. You’ll find the following resources, based on our coaching experience and the resources of our Spiritual Formation Discovery in the Imago Christi Spiritual Formation Coaching Manual, along with extensive bibliographies in each chapter.
