Consulting is the act of pouring myself into someone as an expert. Counseling is the process of reflecting and looking back to find answers.  Coaching is that relationship that looks forward and draws God's agenda out of someone through a process of discovery.  The bottom line...coaching makes a significant difference in effectiveness. 

Why should I be coached?

The Network Development Coaching Cadre is dedicated to serving our pastors and churches by helping them reach their missional destiny.  We all have somewhere we want to go.  Maybe we want to improve our leadership skills.  Maybe we want to start a new ministry within the church or take it to the next level.  Maybe we want to improve a particular skill set.  Maybe we feel called to plant a church or work to revitalize a current church experience.  So how can coaching help get you there?

A coaching relationship:

  • Provides encouragement for the journey
  • Cultivates wisdom and strategic insights
  • Discovers breakthrough opportunities
  • Maintains focus on the truly important issues
  • Transforms vision into reality through a process of discovery and accountability

A coach helps others find a way to get where they want to go.  Through the art of focused listening, powerful questions, and strategic insights, a coach helps individuals to get moving and accomplish their goals.

AGK Network Development is now accepting applications to secure a coach and start a coaching relationship. Fill out the application and we will help find the right coach for your development needs.  You can find the application on the "Find a Coach" page.  

With coaching people gain traction and momentum in life and ministry.

Why should I become a Coach?

 Imagine if every AGK leader had coaching skills.  Imagine if every parent had coaching skills and parents could coach each other.  Imagine if every evangelist had coaching skills.  We know that conversational dialogue-- a coaching approach-- is the best way to reach people in our increasingly secular society.  Imagine the potential.  Imagine every level of the organization strengthened by coaching.  Church planters coaching and developing new church planters resulting in more new churches.  AGK coaches coaching churches toward increased health and raising up more coaches so the process can be spread to even more churches.  Pastoral staff coaching lay leaders to ensure a next generation of leadership for the church.  Imagine the vast impact of a strong, self-replicating coaching system in all areas of ministry.  And it all starts with you receiving the right training.

AGK Network Development is now accepting applications for Standard Coach Training in partnership with CoachNet Global.  If you are interested in discovering the energizing experience of being a quality coach, please click on the "Become a Coach" link and fill out the on-line registration form.  We would love to have you on the AGK Coaching Cadre Team!
