Welcome

Christ Focused Coaching (CFC) is a service to help people and groups uncover hidden talents and get moving to serve the Kingdom of God. The main focus of the work is in a Christian perspective. So, we focus on God's call and desire in your life. But this is not all that is accomplished.


CFC works with leaders in various situations to help them through a struggle. Groups in general are assisted by helping them come together to achieve their goal together. Individuals who are struggling to move forward in any way can be helped. A Christian perspective just means we tend to work with followers of Christ, but we also worked with people of all faiths and no faith.


Training was accomplished through World Coach Institute and following the International Coaching Federation ethical guidelines.


If you would like to speak with Christ Focused Coaching, email at revmatthewroberts@gamil.com The first meeting will be a get to know each other and see if CFC can be a service to you.

Why Scrooge Might Have Been Right

I turned to my wife last night and said, "I now remember why I hate Christmas." 

She was quick ot come back, "You don't hate Christmas."

I replied, "I guess your right, I just hate Christmas for what it has become."  With those words I reflected on just how full this season of preparation has become.    We have Christmas parties and activities to attend, but on top of all those extra parties, comes the preparation for those parties.  This week I have spent getting ready for a parade which our church sold treats at along with practice for the children's service.  This is on top of the other functions I have with my family with Christmas Concerts and other parties this weekend.  So, I hate what Christmas has become. 

As a kid, I remember the excitement of getting ready for Christmas.  There were special oppertunites in school to purchase gifts for parents and grandparents.  Special crafts were made in art class to decorate the house and the tree.  Those days seem long gone.  Even my son does not bring home decorations for the house this time of year.  I just get another invitation to a celebration of the season, not Christmas any more either (but that is a separate topic).

But, it is what it has become.  At the end all I can do is keep a focus on the season.  So, what are you doing to get ready for the birth of Jesus?  Have you taken on too much for the time of year and are starting to hate Christmas also?  If this is so, what are some ways to keep the reason for the season in perspective?

I am asking myself these questions to keep the joy of Christmas in my life and in my families life.  How about you?  If you would like some help with these and other questions, visit my web site www.christfocusedcoaching.com.  I would like to help you discover God's place in your life right now.
