Don't just learn the way of Jesus.
Train it.
An 8-week private 1-on-1 coaching experience designed to help you build the six practices of Jesus into the way you actually live.
Knowing isn't the same as becoming.
Most Christians don't need more information.
We already know we should pray, read Scripture, love people, live in community, and share our faith. The challenge is actually building those things into the way we live.
Jesus didn't simply give His disciples information. He invited them to follow Him, watch Him, practice with Him, and eventually do what He did.
The SKILLS training is built around the same idea.
You can learn the framework.
This is where you train it.
Knowing what Jesus did is different from learning to live the way Jesus lived. The SKILLS training combines teaching, real-world practice, and personalized coaching to help you move from understanding the practices of Jesus to actually building them into your life.
Information matters. Practice changes how you live.
More than content. A place to train.
Learn
Engage the digital teaching and understand the practice. Complete the week's training curriculum and prepare yourself for real-world application.
Train
Put the practice into action in real life. This isn't hypothetical discipleship. You'll practice with real relationships, real conversations, real situations, and real people.
Sharpen
Come back to live coaching, process what happened, receive feedback and prepare for the next round. Bring what worked and where you got stuck.
Six practices Jesus lived.
Build one SKILL at a time and begin stacking them together into a sustainable rhythm. Hover or tap each SKILL to see the practice.
Receive what God says is true about you and learn to live from your identity in Christ instead of performance, fear, or comparison.
Meet Jesus in Scripture through a simple repeatable rhythm for seeing Him, hearing Him, and responding.
Notice the people God has already placed around you and intentionally move toward them.
Bring your real emotions, fears, desires, needs, and burdens honestly before God.
Build intentional relationships and learn to follow Jesus alongside other people.

Eight weeks.
One training rhythm.
Each week participants engage the digital curriculum, practice what they're learning in everyday life, and gather for live coaching with the cohort.

Everything you're wondering.
Can we reschedule sessions if needed?
Yes. Private coaching sessions are scheduled around your availability. If a session doesn't work, we'll find a time that does. Consistency is important for progress, but we work with your real life.
How much time should I expect each week?
Plan for the live coaching call plus a manageable amount of short training and real-life practice during the week. This is designed to fit into normal life rather than feel like an academic course.
What if I miss a session?
We'll reschedule it. The value of coaching comes from the direct conversation, so we make sure you get the full session rather than a recording.
Is this only for pastors or ministry leaders?
No. SKILLS is designed for any follower of Jesus who wants to become more intentional about practicing the way Jesus lived.
What if I've been following Jesus for years?
The training isn't primarily about learning new information. It's about turning what you know into repeatable practices. Your coach will work at the level of depth and sophistication that fits where you actually are.
What if I'm newer to following Jesus?
Perfect. The framework starts where you are and builds from there. Your coach will meet you at the beginning and help you develop the SKILLS at a pace that fits your journey.
Can we train our team or church together?
Yes. We can structure team cohorts where each person gets their own coach but you're training on the same timeline. Reach out at luke@be1make1.org and we'll talk through what works for your group.
What happens when the training ends?
You'll leave with your updated assessment results, a personal 40-Day Plan built specifically for you, the full SKILLS toolkit, and a clear challenge to continue practicing the SKILLS and begin coaching someone else toward following Jesus.
Bring SKILLS to your leadership team.
We work directly with pastors and leadership teams to train leaders, equip a local facilitator and build SKILLS into the church's discipleship strategy.
