Press Reviews
Gold is a rare commodity of great value–mined and refined at great cost– and so is a good leader. Tom, in this practical leadership coaching book, reminds us of the importance of refinement in leadership. Fruitful, multiplying leaders are refined by God and shaped through intentional coaching. This book will help you practically uncover six important principles of thriving leaders and is worth its weight in gold.
Tom and I have gotten to know each other in a group of churches called the Vineyard. In our tribe, we have a saying, “Everyone gets to play.” In Tom’s book, Mining for Gold, that phrase comes to life as he helps us empower every person to come alive and get in the game of kingdom ministry. There is treasure in every person who gathers in our churches every week. This book is a great tool to help us discover that treasure and develop leaders who come alive and thrive.
I can barely think of a more critical skill for this current mileu of ministry, than coaching. As accessible as it is gracious, Tom gives us a practical path to empowerment, taking us into the deepest possible waters of true servant leadership. I am so grateful for this book.
Once in a while someone comes along with something really life changing. Tom has touched and changed the lives of many hundreds of people with his coaching. Now you can experience that life change with this book too. Learn how powerful coaching can be, how to engage in it, and the transformation it can bring you. Any leader who wants to step into more of who they are and what they are called to be, needs to read this book.
I love this book. It will definitely light some fires and save some lives that might otherwise be broken on the altars of ministry. Tom gets it. Most of God’s investment in those we coach is buried under the dirt of everyday living.
The book is full of interesting stories of people not fully understanding the value of what’s in front of them. These stories parallel my own experience both as an young man displaying little potential and later as a coach sometimes overlooking the gold in the life of another.
The book is a great coaching manual, and his argument for a “sweet spot” is worth the price. It’s also a good, fun, read. You’ll love it.
Coaching the gold can change our world.
In Mining for Gold, pastor and master-coach, Tom Camacho, offers a fresh perspective on how to draw out the best in ourselves and in those around us. Cutting through the complexity and challenges of leadership development, he gives us practical and effective tools to help leaders grow personally and develop those around them.
Coaching, through the power of the Holy Spirit, provides the clarity and momentum we need to grow. When we get clarity, everything changes. Coaching helps us better understand our identity in Christ, our God-given wiring, and how we naturally bear the most fruit.
There is gold in God’s people, waiting to be discovered. Let’s learn to draw out that treasure and help others flourish in their life and leadership.
