Coaching
What is Coaching (And Why)
Working closely with youth leaders, CYN offers various coaching programs to help emerging and existing leaders start or recalibrate a strategic ministry along with establishing a balanced personal life and healthy spiritual life. CYN believes the following VALUES are critical for a healthy and balanced ministry:
Passion & Intimacy with God
Solid Biblical Theology
Exemplary Family and Personal Life
Servant-Leadership
Submission to Authority
Healthy Relationships
Clear Objectives from a God instilled Vision
Organization and Structure
“I now have a tangible ministry plan on paper, which previously existed only in my head. I am able to present my thoughts and ideas in a clearer sense, and can better hold myself accountable to what I intend to do. I think my ministry is much more unified and connected than it previously was. I also feel that the current strength of my leadership team is a direct result of this experience.”

Transferable Ministry Plan
Personal Life Plan
Individual Spiritual Priorities
Career Path Direction
Ministry Team Consulting
A CYN Youth Ministry specialist will get in the trenches with your ministry team and consult for 2-4 years. In this format, we will work with your team to evaluate your current ministry for effectiveness, determine measurable goals, train on new strategies or practices, set up a plan and work with you to implement your training and accomplish your goals. Examples of goals:
- Creation of a detailed, intentional and transferable Ministry Plan, approved by the Lead Pastor/Church Board. The Ministry Plan will be based on the churches ministry philosophy and goals.
- The Youth Ministry dept. will have a greater sense of cohesion, confidence, leadership and maturity in overall ministry activities.
- As a result of training: staff, volunteers and parents will have a good understanding of the church’s ministry philosophy, goals and will be more engaged.
Ultimately the goal is to increase the church’s impact on the spiritual health of the youth through investing in the leaders.
