Most coach training focuses on working with the rational mind using practical tools like goals, options and actions. The Invitation opens up a whole new realm by showing you how to work with the emotional side of the brain. Most behavior actually originates there, in our deep desires for things like love, belonging, significance or approval. When these desires are unmet, they spawn guardian beliefs and emotional memories we use to protect our heart from further harm. But these same masks and defenses are what become our greatest obstacles to living abundantly.
Jesus' way of heart change doesn't focus on fixing the problem, but on filling the unmet desires that caused it. (See James chapter 4 for a succinct explanation). Jesus' way does not depend on self-discipline or effort, but on encountering Him--and you can do it right in the midst of a coaching conversation. It's an incredibly beautiful, positive and powerful way to work at transformation. This book includes tools like:
- A four level Model of the Heart that explains how behavior flows from desire
- A questioning process called "Drilling Down" that leads from a surface emotion directly to beliefs, desires and emotional memories (wounds)
- A method for easily creating powerful God-encounters by praying your desire
- A set of tools for changing beliefs through creating different experiences (the heart learns from experience, not from rational dialog!)
- How to use the Fellowship of Suffering to create intimate encounters with Jesus in the midst of loss, betrayal or grief
- Bringing lies into the open with dangerous prayers
- ...and dozens more!
The Invitation makes coaching the heart practical. Packed with stories, examples, tools, and real-life dialogs, it's a book you'll refer to again and again.
