Jesus lived with his disciples for three years and taught them life lessons in a relational atmosphere. After three years, he commanded them to "go and do likewise" (Matthew 28:18-20). Our God, the Trinity, is a relational God. He lives in perfect harmony with the other members of the Godhead. His word is full of exhortations to love and serve one another. This book will tell you how.

We know that the goal of the Christian life is to glorify God and to enjoy him forever. While this is God's ultimate plan, does he have a particular purpose for the cell-based church? I've been wrestling with this question for the past 22 years. This question confronts me every time I coach a pastor or pastors. In preparation for coaching, I ask myself, "What is my principal objective in helping this pastor?", "Where am I guiding this church?", and "What am I trying to do?". I've come to the conclusion that the primary goal of cell ministry is to make disciples who make disciples.

We've entitled this audiobook You Can Coach because we believe that coaching is more about passing on what you've lived and holding others accountable in the process. Coaching doesn't require a higher degree, special talent, unique personality, or a particular spiritual gift. We believe, in fact, that God wants coaching to become a movement. We long to see the day in which every pastor has a coach and in turn is coaching someone else. In this audiobook, you'll hear three coaches who have successfully coached pastors for many years.

Las palabras de Maxwell me han convencido de priorizar lo que realmente importa. Aunque la comunión involucra muchas áreas de nuestras vidas, las relaciones comunitarias más importantes son las más cercanas a nosotros. Si la comunión no funciona allí, realmente no funciona.

Investigaciones exhaustivas han demostrado que lo que más contribuye al éxito o fracaso de un programa eclesial de grupos celulares es la calidad del asesoramiento que aporte en su grupo cada uno de los líderes de célula. Con frecuencia, muchas de las personas que dirigen grupos celulares aportan la mejor voluntad, pero no entienden demasiado cuales son sus obligaciones y qué es lo que se espera de ellos. Esta circunstancia no es achacable a ellos mismos, la causa hay que buscarla más bien en una labor incompleta y deficiente por parte del pastor o supervisor general.
