In order to make coaching affordable to my clients, I raise money from donors to subsidize the low rates I offer missionaries. Having a solid donor and support base is one of the keys to launching out into missions coaching. I hope you'll hang in there, and find ways to fund what God is calling you to do!

I have recently asked another woman to join me. Basically, as you described in the article titled: There Are Many of Us, by Tim Olson on the christiancoachingcenter.org site; my passion is to coach those who need it most but can afford it least. The full vision goes a bit beyond that but the general problem I am having right now is: I cannot seem to wrap my head around stepping out in ministry without knowing how to make a living and pay bills at the same time? I want to just be a faithful co-heir of Christ and not worry about it yet my partner needs to get certified still and realistically there are office expenses even from home. I desperately need guidance from those who have gone before me. My heart is where it needs to be however I also have experienced start up businesses before and understand there is a business side that needs attention too. Maybe faith just needs to grow more? Words of wisdom here are welcomed. How do I balance it? Everyday I pray for the Holy Spirit to just show me what His will is for me just for today. I think just being part of a group networking online with other coaches having a similar passion and goal may help. Bouncing around ideas and just knowing I'm not the only one that sometimes feels weary but encouraging each other to stay active in forward momentum. I totally need that. Does anyone else out there need that too?
