If you think we’ve missed the boat somewhere, I’d appreciate hearing your perspective. Just saying, “It sounds like a lot of cherry picking scripture” doesn’t give me anything to go on other than you apparently don’t agree with our position. If you don’t agree, that’s fine. Let me know why. Let’s have a discussion about it so that everyone can learn something.

@@GarySmithCoaching no mean of disrespect .... I've been in the Word of Faith space for a over 24yrs and I don't believe coaching people or God's people with Taylor custom scripture being taking out of context?

I did not take your comment as meaning any disrespect, but merely questioning. I have been a Christian for over 40 years and have built my consulting and coaching business on Biblical principles. I believe in helping people discover their unique callings through the use and understanding of scripture. I am certainly not perfect, but I strive to never take any scripture out of context. I do my homework and make sure that I take the time to understand the context of scripture, including the person writing it, the language being used, and both the historical and social environment. That is why I am interested in your point of view. If I am ever out of line with my interpretation of scripture, I am always open to reproof and correction. I appreciate you, Noe.

My precautions come from a place of are really using scripture in context or are we using the Word od God for personal edification and /or is it safe in order to help someone understand the will of God for there life ? For example when state Matt. 18... when two or more are in agreement...is it safe to use the phrase to show agreement of what one might be "believing God for"(prayer)....but are neglecting the truth of Jesus explaining how to deal sin in the church? Most believers probably haven't ever even realized why he said this ....but have a used this particular verse for there selves or compassionately someone else (good intentions) but are we miss using the word of God causing us to only focus on ourselves and what we can get ,instead of contextually understanding the meaning?

Thank you for your kind words, Joy. My goal is to add value to as many lives as possible. Let me know if there is anything further I can do to help you. Be blessed! Gary

Thank you, Kellie. I appreciate your feedback. God gives us what we can handle at the moment. His sense of timing is impeccable - and He also mixes it with a sense of humor, just for fun. God bless you!

@@GarySmithCoaching Amen!

Hi Isabel, Thank you so much for your feedback on the video. I appreciate it very much. Yes, I do coach teenagers, but I want parents to be involved in the coaching sessions along with their kids. It becomes a family program. Let me know if that is something that would be of interest to you. God bless you! Gary

Thank you, Isabel! You are a great encouragement to me! May God richly bless you!

Thank you, Starlight. May God bless you richly. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you. Many blessings, Gary

@Gary Smith Thank you! Can I have your free mini course?

Thank you, Dion! God bless you as well!

Hi Stefano! Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. What other topics would you like me to discuss in future videos? Is there anything specific that I can do to help you? Gary

@@GarySmithCoaching Thank you for your message! It would be interesting, I guess, to understand what are the different methods of coaching, and maybe which are the rules, if there are some, in order to build a coaching program!

@@stei82 Hello Stafano! Thanks for your response. I do have another video that talks about life coaching. You can find that video here: ua-cam.com/video/SYwRwHdwpEs/v-deo.html As far as the different "methods" of life coaching, I think that those who try to take a canned (one method fits all) approach miss many opportunities to help their clients. A good coach -- no matter if it's life coaching, financial coaching, leadership coaching, etc. -- focuses his work around understanding his clients needs and helping them to define what they want to achieve, and then helps them create a "success system". In my coaching, I don't have a method -- I have a process. I first want to help people discover and get clarity on their purpose in life. Then, based on their purpose, we document where they are today in their life's journey. Next, in order to reach the fulfillment of their purpose, what are the goals they need to pursue? After that, we work on defining the gaps that exist (both skills gaps and personal development gaps) that are keeping them from achieving their goals. Once we've taken the steps above, we create a unique, custom achievement system to close those gaps and get them on the path to success. From my perspective, some of the key rules to being a good coach are things like having great listening skills, learning to ask high quality questions, digging deep with questions to get to the root of the challenges people are facing, always being encouraging and supporting, and developing systems that fit their personalities. Building a coaching program is hard work because it is not a job -- it's a calling. Is it worth it? YES! Not just for the people you help, but the person you must become in the service of others. I'd love to schedule a Zoom meeting with you so that we can talk more. You can go to GarySmith.YouCanBook.Me if you would like to schedule a time for us to chat.

Hello, Bong! Thank you so much for letting me know you found the vide inspiring. I would love to know what you found helpful in what I shared. Please feel free to leave a comment or email me directly at Gary@GaryLSmith.com. Thanks again for your comment and for being a part of our community. Gary

So glad you enjoyed it. Dr. Tracy is an amazing Christian woman and I am privileged to have her as a friend. What did you like about the video, and what would you like to see more of as we create more content?

I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you.

Hi Steve. Identifying blind spots is critical to helping people move forward. As a coach, one of the major things I help my clients do is examine their belief systems and determine what beliefs they have that are limiting their progress in life. Once we uncover our limiting beliefs, then we can reframe them into beliefs that serve, rather than hinder us.

Hi Eric. Thanks for your post. Yes, distractions are indeed a major issue for people. We live in such a fast-paced digital world that distractions become a way of life, don’t they? All you have to do is watch people grabbing for their phones every time they beep to know just how distracted we’ve become. There are a number of tools that we can use to minimize our distractions and stay focused on our highest priorities. I’ll be talking about these tools in a future video, so stay tuned. In the mean time, reach out to me of there is an urgent need I can help you with. Many blessings to you! Gary

Thank you so much for that amazing compliment! I truly appreciate it. I really do strive to keep things simple and transparent. I hope you enjoy the book. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you on your life journey.

My pleasure! I'm glad that you enjoyed it. Stay tuned for more videos and let me know if there is anything I can do to help you!

Thanks for the comment, Brett. You're right on target. And the real power comes when we combine who we want to be with what we want our lives to count for -- the impact we want to make. When we can do these two things, then we can truly achieve happiness and fulfillment. Thanks again for giving me your thoughts.

Thank you :) Appreciate you watching and contributing! Hope to see you back soon. New videos are posted Tuesday and Friday at 11am PST.
