Have you ever wondered what God might do with the passions He’s put in your heart?
Ponder this question with me, life coach Cynthia Culver, and Devoted Dreamers listener Lois Martin in this second of three bonus On-Air Coaching calls.
In this episode, Cynthia’s questions focus on the DIRECTION component of coaching.
You’ll hear us cover some topics that maybe you’ve been wrestling with too:
- The deep passion in your heart that feels God-given
- The fear that you might pursue that passion poorly
- Wondering if pursuing your passion/dream is too self-focused
- Wanting to live freely – in the Spirit – as you pursue your dream
- How to distinguish your values from your goals
- The adventure of stepping into your dream and walking with Him in it
Cynthia touches on the Session II homework here, too. It’s focused on helping you understand the mindset of truth, which is all the ways you think when you choose to operate out of God’s word and His truth instead from your fear or your broken mindset.
Each of the three On-Air Coaching episodes focuses on one of three components to coaching. Cynthia talks about this in the audio, but here’s a little cheat-sheet to help you recall where we’re going with these conversations:
Session I - Discovery: Identify what is driving your current results: beliefs, patterns, and choices.
Session II - Direction: Evaluate current results and establish new and clear direction.
Session III - Development: Develop a plan by identifying new beliefs, patterns, and choices that produce results in line with your new direction.
As you listen to Cynthia’s questions and hear Lois talk about her challenges, I hope you can keep an ear toward your own story, passions, and specifically the dream God has put on your heart to contribute to His Kingdom.
Come back next week to listen to Session III on Development.
I’m on maternity leave for the summer of 2018, but I’d love to hear your feedback on these On-Air Coaching calls. Leave me a message via my Contact page and let me know your thoughts.

Scripture:
Do not conform to the pattern of this world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
~ Romans 12:2a (NIV)
Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given, and then sink yourself into that. Don’t be impressed with yourself. Don’t compare yourself with others. Each of you must take responsibility for doing the creative best you can with your own life.
~ Galatians 6:4-5 (The Message)
Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
~Galatians 6:7 (NIV)
Let us examine our ways and test them,
and let us return to the Lord.
~ Lamentations 3:40 (NIV)
Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.
~ Ephesians 6:11 (NIV)
