Who it's for
For Christians who want to help people find clarity, purpose and practical next steps, with Christ at the center.
You love helping people grow and move forward in life and faith.
You want to coach in your church, a ministry or your own coaching practice.
You want practical tools for goals, identity and purpose, rooted in Scripture.
You want to coach ethically and know when someone needs counseling instead.
Imagine one month from now: someone who feels stuck sits across from you, and you know how to listen, ask the right questions and help them take their next step with faith and confidence.
Picture a client overwhelmed by the demands of life—facing career uncertainties, family pressures, and spiritual disconnection. Their exhaustion is evident in their words, their posture, and the quiet resignation in their demeanor. They long for clarity and hope but feel lost amidst the noise of daily struggles.
Now imagine stepping into their story, equipped with faith-filled strategies and wisdom to gently guide them back to God’s truth. As their Christian Life Coach, you become the encouragement they need, helping them rediscover their God-given potential and embrace the peace that surpasses all understanding. As they find renewed strength and purpose, you witness the transformative power of God at work—not only in their life but in yours as well.
This is the profound impact and joy of becoming a Christian Life Coach, a calling where your faith and skills unite to make a difference in the lives of others for His glory.

Questions
A Christian life coach helps people get unstuck and move toward God-centered goals. Through listening, powerful questions, Scripture and prayer, the coach helps clients clarify their purpose and identity in Christ, overcome fear and roadblocks, make realistic plans and stay accountable until they see real change, in their church, their work or their family life.
With the Christian Life Coach certificate you can coach people one-to-one or online, offer discipleship and leadership coaching in your church, run group coaching and workshops, or add coaching skills to pastoral care, counseling or mentoring. It is a ministry certificate, not an ICF credential and not a counseling or therapy license. Life coaching is not a licensed profession in most places, but check any business requirements where you live before you charge for sessions.
A Christian life coach helps people who are basically well move forward: goals, purpose, decisions and habits. A Christian counselor helps people work through pain, grief, conflict and emotional struggles. The Christian Life Coach course teaches you to coach ethically and to recognize when someone needs counseling or professional care instead of coaching.
Life coaching is not a licensed profession in most places, so a certification is not legally required. A certificate shows clients and churches that you have trained in a structured coaching method grounded in Scripture, and it gives you the skills and confidence to coach well. The Christian Life Coach certificate is endorsed by Shakeid Ministries Global.
Yes. With the Christian Life Coach certificate you can coach clients one-to-one or online, or add coaching to your church, ministry or leadership role. The Client Attraction Certification Course, included as a bonus, helps you find your first clients. Practice with volunteers first, use a simple written agreement that says coaching is not counseling or therapy, and check any requirements in your location before offering paid services. We can’t promise income: it depends on your network, your time and your market.
