		<description><![CDATA[...a recent Barna study suggests 61% of pastors have difficulty in developing meaningful relationships. In other words, pastors many times do not seek relationships for their own leadership development. Dr. Louis McBurney, a leading pastoral counselor suggests it is taught as a “best practice” in seminary; avoid intimate relationships...A personal coach can be the missing link for pastors to truly transform their ministry.

		<description><![CDATA[When we do coach training for a local church, we’re hoping for two separate results: transformation for those who will eventually be coached and transformation for the coach him or herself.  The latter is often a surprise for the trainees because that’s not why they signed up – they wanted to help others but didn’t give much thought to what God might be up to in their own lives.

		<description><![CDATA[How important is it to get your Pastor's blessing up front if you hope to start a coaching ministry in your church?  It's IMPERATIVE!!  It is not wise to try to introduce something as life-changing and paradigm-busting as coaching to a congregation without the Senior Pastor's agreement.  But "selling" coaching to your pastor is not a job for the faint-of-heart.  It can be a very challenging business.]]></description>
