What is Biblical Coaching?

At Daystar Church, we offer Biblical Coaching focused on empowering a person to effect change, create new awareness, move into action and step into the abundant Christian life that God desires for them to experience.

We are not professional counselors. We offer short-term Biblical Coaching.

Counseling is different from coaching in that it is a form of therapy and recovery. A counselor deals with an individual’s past and their need for healing whereas a coach deals with the individual’s future and the process of taking that person from being stuck or in a conflict in their life, marriage, or career to unstuck with a solid plan to move forward.

Another thing that is different between counseling and coaching is the level of education or training required. Counselors have a master’s degree in either counseling, mental health counseling, social work, or another related field. Coaching isn’t a regulated field at this point, however, many coaches have extensive training and are certified in the skills and coaching techniques necessary to help build towards the future with clients and help them come up with strategic plans for achieving goals.
