Training and equipping Christian leaders to minister effectively, including how to blend prayer and inner healing tools, with coaching skills.
THE NEXT COHORT STARTS SOON
And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest. – Luke 10:2
The Freedom Certification is a live, hands-on, interactive, and powerful training program! You will learn how to blend ICF coaching skills with ministry/discipleship tools like prayer and inner healing, so you can help people encounter the presence of God and find freedom in Christ.
Get certified and have a proven system to help your clients get lifelong transformation.
The Freedom Certification™ is a Biblical, trauma-informed, and Spirit-filled program that equips people like you to minister to and coach their clients, helping them break through strongholds and find freedom in Christ.
We are proud to offer this unique training, as there isn’t another program out there that teaches these tools and equips leaders in this blended model.
We found that inner healing and prayer ministry are powerful, but people often struggle to encounter God’s presence independently, leading them to become dependent on a minister.
Traditional coaching is effective, but without encounters with God, they risk going back to old patterns of bondage because the key to breakthrough is God’s presence.
With the guidance of a Freedom Coach®, clients can experience a transformative journey towards lasting freedom!

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
(not a complete list)
FREEDOM FOUNDATIONS™ _______________
We will explore the foundations of freedom using coach tools aligned with ICF Core Competencies. Even if you don’t want to coach as a business, this is a key foundation to leadership development. Learning to ask powerful questions and listen well without giving advice is a skill. You’ll solidify your understanding of the biblical foundations for Christian coaching and ministry. (Optional for current ICF-accredited coaches.)
FREEDOM FRAMEWORK™ __________________
You will be trained to help people align their thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and actions with God’s heart using the two parts of the Freedom Framework™ as a foundation in all your sessions. You’ll learn to identify the key phrases people say that keep them in bondage (Enemy’s Plan) and have the confidence that you can help them rewrite their old story and find the glory of God in their lives (God’s Plan).
FREEDOM COACH MODEL®_______________
Each client struggles with different topical strongholds. You will create a custom plan for your clients. You’ll learn independent tools to help clients hear God’s voice and encounter His presence. You’ll tackle subjects such as fear, rejection, anger, soul ties, and family-of-origin wounds, among others. You’ll have Biblical strategies to help them be set free. These advanced tools follow the Freedom Framework.
