Hello, Kathleen,
Congratulations, for pressing forward and reaching the end of this course. The topics of this discussion are interesting, sharing the points that have my attention can be educational and encouraging.
First, you mentioned, “Biblical life coaching is a career path that interests you, and believe that it will be an enhancement of your life, by continual growth.” As a word of encouragement, the fact that there is an interest in helping others, proves you are on the right track for your life. I agree that it is a good career choice for those people that plan to help others.
Meanwhile, Collins (2009), stated, “People that are active in life coaching, tend to have some empathetic experience as therapist or counselor” (p.39). Personally,

    One way that it is important to recognize that my worldview influences my desires is that if my worldview is flawed, I may commit illicit acts while believing that my actions are justifiable. For instance, if my worldview includes an appreciation for polygamy, if I were to practice polygamy, I would believe that the practice is appropriate. Conversely, if I held a biblical worldview, specifically that man is to exclusively have one wife, I would strive to solely practice monogamy and reject polygamy. Furthermore, a biblical worldview will influence my desires to increasingly love God, while increasingly hating sin.…

    “Life Coaching: A Cognitive Behavioural Approach” Summary Michael Neenan and Windy Dryden, the authors of “Life Coaching: A cognitive behavioural approach, second edition” (2014) offer a pragmatic, evidence-based method of coaching based on the concept of cognitive behavioral therapy. The authors discuss the sequence of emotional causation and how—in fact—one’s thoughts affect one’s emotion and thus, one’s behavior. Neenan and Dryden (2014) report that most coaching clients have an external attribution style regarding their emotions (i.e. - they embrace the misconception that other people or events are responsible for how they feel). To substantiate this, the authors give reference to Dr. Albert Ellis’ ABC model that explains how emotional upset—in relation to negative events—is shaped by the thoughts or beliefs concerning the event, which has a greater impact than the event itself.…

    True and significant life is found in Jesus Christ and because of my firm conviction of this it has been my primary objective to point people to Jesus. Being persuaded that Christ wants Christians and especially those who take leadership roles to minister to the needs of others, I have ordered my life to conform to that conviction. Ultimately, Jesus desires that each Christian serves him by serving others; this is accomplished in a variety of ways – feeding those who are hungry, teaching everyone the life saving Gospel, and by leading in a way that reflects the glory of Christ. It has been my immense pleasure to have had the opportunity to preach God’s Word to thousands of people over the past fifteen years. It is my sincere passion to see people embrace Christ Jesus as their Lord and savior and to be transformed by the renewing of their minds through the Word of God.…

    Introduction into this book and videos covers how we need to set long term goals, but before doing so we need to ask ourselves some questions. Before we can set those goals we should seek to know Christ. This can be done by reading the four gospels and seeing what Jesus did, what we can learn from him, and how does it relate to us? Jesus’ last commandment was to go and make disciples, and while principles never change, our methods have to change in order to reach the current generation, and each beyond. As we get into the chapters we learn that men are God’s method and while they may seem unlearned or ignorant by man’s standards, God uses those willing to learn and raises them into leadership.…
