Who it's for
For Christians who want to help people care for body, mind and spirit, and avoid burnout, with Scripture at the center.
You want to help people find health, rest and renewal in Christ.
You want to coach in your church, a ministry, a health role or your own practice.
You want practical tools for stress, rest, habits and well-being, rooted in Scripture.
You want to coach responsibly and refer to a doctor or licensed professional when needed.
Imagine one month from now: someone running on empty sits across from you, and you know how to help them slow down, build healthy rhythms and find rest and renewal in God, like Elijah under the broom tree.
Are Christians meant to neglect their bodies? What about their minds? Does pursuing health and wellness somehow conflict with following Christ? Many believers have wrestled with these questions, assuming that caring for our well-being distracts us from spiritual priorities.
Yet Scripture paints a different picture. Our well-being matters because it affects how we serve God and those around us. While nothing should ever take Christ's place, it is His presence that truly restores, strengthens, and renews us from the inside out.
As we seek Him daily, surrender our lives to His leading, and walk in obedience to His voice, lasting wellness becomes the fruit of a life rooted in Him—not apart from Him.

One of the most powerful biblical examples of holistic wellness is found in the story of Elijah. In 1 Kings 19, after performing great miracles and standing against false prophets, Elijah reached a point of complete physical, emotional, and spiritual exhaustion. Overwhelmed by fear and fatigue, he fled into the wilderness and prayed that he might die (1 Kings 19:4).
But notice how God responds to Elijah's breakdown—not with rebuke, but with practical care:
This story reveals a divine pattern for wellness: proper nourishment, deep rest, and reconnection with God. As a Christian Wellness Coach, you can help others avoid burnout while guiding them toward sustainable, Christ-centered health.

Questions
A Christian wellness coach helps people care for the whole person, body, mind and spirit, as an act of stewardship and worship. The coach supports clients in recovering from stress and burnout, building rhythms of rest, eating well, moving their bodies and caring for their minds, with Scripture and prayer at the center, and refers them to a doctor or licensed professional when needed.
No. A wellness coach supports healthy habits and lifestyle change; a coach does not diagnose, treat or prescribe. The Christian Wellness Coach course teaches you to coach responsibly within that scope and to refer clients to a doctor, dietitian or licensed mental-health professional when their needs go beyond coaching.
With the Christian Wellness Coach certificate you can coach people one-to-one or online on stress, rest, healthy habits and spiritual well-being, lead wellness groups and burnout-prevention programs in your church, and add faith-based wellness coaching to health, fitness or care work. It is not a medical, nursing or dietitian qualification: a wellness coach does not diagnose, treat or prescribe, or write meal plans for medical conditions, and refers clients to a doctor when needed.
The Bible calls the body a temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19–20) and shows God caring for the whole person. When the prophet Elijah was exhausted and afraid, God first gave him food, water and sleep, then spoke to him in a gentle whisper (1 Kings 19:4–12). In this view, wellness is the fruit of a life rooted in Christ, not a goal apart from Him.
The Christian Wellness Coach course covers 10 modules: Intro to Christian Wellness Coaching; Biblical Foundations for Health and Wholeness; Physical Health and Christian Living; Mental and Emotional Well-being; Spiritual Health and Personal Growth; Coaching Skills and Techniques for Christian Health; Nutrition for Body and Spirit; Health Coaching Program Design and Implementation; Special Populations and Challenges; and Building a Sustainable Practice.
No prior experience or qualification is required. The Christian Wellness Coach course starts from the foundations and builds step by step, so it suits beginners as well as people already serving in a church, ministry or practice. All you need is a phone, tablet or computer and a desire to help others. If you are unsure whether it fits your situation, contact us and we will help you decide.
The Christian Wellness Coach course takes about 40 hours of study, spread over 10 modules. It is 100% online and self-paced, with no deadlines: you study when it suits you, around work, family and ministry, an hour a day or a few hours at the weekend. You keep lifetime access, so you can pause and come back at any time.
