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. 

En Fundamentos Bíblicos para la Iglesia Basada en Células, el Dr. Comiskey establece la base bíblica para el ministerio de grupos pequeños. Comiskey primero examina la comunidad dentro de la Trinidad y la estructura familiar del grupo pequeño en el Antiguo Testamento. Luego explora cómo Jesús implementó la nueva familia de Dios a través de las comunidades estrechamente unidas que encontramos en las iglesias en las casas. Comiskey luego cubre ampliamente cómo la iglesia primitiva se reunía en las casas, levantó liderazgos desde el interior y reunió a las iglesias en las casas para celebrar.

Christians desire to grow in their relationship with God. They want to flourish, to experience victory in their Christian lives. They want to live in the overcoming power that the cross provides. But they are stuck. They are like my friend, John, who works 60 hours per week, sits in two hours of traffic each day, and carries the burdens of the world on his shoulders. He and his wife, Jenny, love each other, or at least they used to. They now spend their time together carting their kids to activities after driving through Taco Bell for dinner.

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.

With full calendars and long lists of things to do, people often put on hold life's most important goal - building an intimate relationship with God.

With warm, encouraging writing, Joel Comiskey guides listeners on how to set a daily appointment with the King and make it an exciting time they will look forward to.
