Coaches Corner \u2013 Consulting<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\nWe have talked in previous blogs about the importance of Immanuel Coaches continuing to go after their own healing with Jesus.\u00a0 By doing this, we model humility and a desire for intimacy with Jesus in our own lives.\u00a0 We also inevitably get triggered while coaching others.\u00a0 As we pursue Jesus in our own lives, we are able to be the best untriggered coaches for others.<\/p>\n
There is another level that I want to discuss today.\u00a0 We call it consulting.\u00a0 It is critical for those of us in the Immanuel community to have someone (or multiple someone\u2019s) who we can talk to about the people we are coaching in order to receive guidance, and advice on our sessions.<\/p>\n
We will inevitably hit plateaus, and blind spots with those we coach.\u00a0 These may be from getting into comfortable patterns with the person.\u00a0 They may stem from a fear to bring up something we are noticing in the sessions and not wanting to hurt their feelings.\u00a0 Sometimes the Receiver runs into something in the way that we just cannot get past. Sometimes the Coach hits his or her own blind spots \/ blocks.<\/p>\n
By having someone on the outside (preferably someone ahead of you in their Immanuel experience) to talk about your coaching, you open yourself up to a different set of eyes and mind to speak into the situation.\u00a0 They may see a way in that you hadn\u2019t tried yet.<\/p>\n
The wisdom I have received from my consulting talks has made me a better coach.\u00a0 They are teaching \/ learning moments.\u00a0 It has given me words to formulate those \u201cI\u2019m noticing\u201d talks with the receiver.\u00a0 As an example, \u201cI may be way off here.\u00a0 It may just be me.\u00a0 But I am noticing that over our last few sessions there has been some resistance to going into memories.\u00a0 Would you be OK if we ask Jesus about that?\u201d\u00a0 That kind of awareness and phrasing came from my consulting time with a mentor.<\/p>\n
Here is an important caveat:\u00a0 We do not discuss details of the sessions.\u00a0 We have to maintain privacy and confidentiality.\u00a0 Instead, we can share how the process itself is going.\u00a0 Is the person connecting with Jesus?\u00a0 With the true Lord Jesus?\u00a0 Is the person able to enter into negative memories with Jesus and let Him bring healing? Are you noticing fruit in the Receiver?<\/p>\n
So, reach out to a mentor periodically.\u00a0 Even if you don\u2019t sense anything off in your sessions (especially if you don\u2019t sense anything off in your sessions\u2026).\u00a0 Schedule it quarterly.\u00a0 As specific situations arise, have someone to call to get help.<\/p>\n
We are not in this alone!\u00a0 Use the resources of this amazing Immanuel community that Jesus is building.<\/p>\n
