Forward Steps Coaching

Memorial Day is a time to reflect on the cost of freedom in human lives. The men and women who have served the public by fighting in our wars for the hopes and dreams that you and I have. On the day after Memorial Day is a time to own up to what you dream. Will you? Can you? I believe you have the will and the "can" but sometimes you need a boost. That's where I can help.

From the book of Psalms 37:35,36 "I have seen a violent, wicked man spreading himself like a luxuriant tree in its native soil. Then he passed away, an lo, he was no more."

I look to see a problem like the coronavirus as this violent, wicked man spreading out like it owns the place. And while difficult to manage and we adapt to it eventually this too shall pass.

That is what coaching is - learning to adapt, press on, be faithful to the goals we have. Hope all is well with you and yours.

One of the most famous Methodist evangelists in American history was George R. Stuart. During the height of Spanish Flu in October 1918, Stuart wrote, "We have had the strange experience of a churchless Sabbath. What has it taught us? The pandemic should convince "Intelligent Christians" to trust science rather than seeking to "tempt God to perform a miracle in the preservation of our health... Christians do not discount their faith in the omnipotence of their God by keeping their bodies and homes and streets clean and nongerm producing; by using care in traffic and travel, accepting vaccination, sprays and disinfectants and keeping God's own laws of health and life. Any other course is the fruit of ignorance and false teaching."
