What's the difference between a course and The FIRM FAITH Leadership Success Coaching Certification Program?
Great Question!
- A course has a set timeframe (e.g., 6 weeks) and offers a relatively small transformation. For example, one of the nine decisions in this certification program could be repurposed into a course (e.g., management your finances wisely).
- This certification program provides a greater transformation because it will allow you to master nine life-changing decisions that address your most important life domains.
- It is not uncommon for other programs to have an aim to help you achieve one goal, such as design an online course. However, in this certification program you will be challenged to not just develop your authentic offering but also to do so without sacrificing your wellbeing or the wellbeing of others.
- This certification program challenges you to not just learn for yourself but also to learn by teaching and coaching others. The process provides you with at deeper long-term transformation.
- And much more!

NICE TO MEET YOU
Hi, I'm Firm Faith
As a child, I despised my name. Now, I realize that God has called me to help leaders, like you, exercise firm faith to make wise decisions to achieve true success, including planning, preparing, and promoting your authentic love offering!
I was blessed to see my name in Isaiah 7:9: "If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all."
In the book, titled A Call to Stand Apart, E. G. White noted, "True success in any line of work is not the result of chance or accident or destiny. It is the outworking of God's providences, the reward of faith and discretion, of virtue and perseverance. Fine mental qualities and a high moral tone are not the result of accident. God gives opportunities; success depends upon the use made of them." p. 56.
I invite you to join me and other wise leaders in The FIRM FAITH Leadership Success Coaching Certification Program!

May I share this opportunity with others?
What's the cost of not taking action now?
Imagine living for another season with your God-given desires on a shelf. Think about whose desires or dreams might be delayed if you choose to delay today. You see, one might focus on money as a cost that is too much to pay while another might see this opportunity as a well-needed investment. In some cases, this type of investment in yourself can be a tax write off. However, is there a place to write off delays, time wasted, or regret? Will you let another season go by with your God-given desires on a shelf? Remember I am here to help you exercise firm faith to achieve the desires that God has placed in your heart for this season!
