LEARN-LIVE-HOPE Identity Formation Coach Certification
A Christ-centered certification designed to transform lives through the Four Selves Framework + Sacred-Partnership Coaching.
Biblical & Professional Foundations
The Learn-Live-Hope Journey Identity Formation Coach Certification (LLHJ-IFCC) is grounded in a Biblical worldview. We adhere to Scripture as our ultimate authority and train students to integrate biblical principles faithfully, especially in seasons of change, growth, and personal transformation.
Our curriculum emphasizes spiritual formation, Christ-centered identity, and grace-based coaching practices that reflect the character of Jesus and the values of the Kingdom of God.
While we incorporate competencies commonly recognized within the coaching profession, every training component is anchored in a theology that honors God’s Word and the dignity of every person made in His image.
About the founder
The LLHJ-IFCC program, curriculum, and training standards were developed by Dr. Johan Green, a Certified Results Coach since 2013. Dr. Green holds a Master’s degree in Pastoral Counseling and a Doctorate in Ministry Leadership.
He was ordained as a pastor in South Africa in 2009, and has continued his pastoral calling in the United States, serving as an ordained pastor with World Ministry Fellowship (WMF) since 2017.
With over two decades of experience building and operating purpose-driven, values-aligned businesses, Johan has helped people across diverse backgrounds discover their identity in Christ and live with clarity, purpose, and hope.
Johan specializes in Christian identity + spiritual formation and is the author of Who Am Eye? along with other written works centered on identity, grace, and personal transformation.
Our program maintains the highest standards of excellence in biblical fidelity, academic integrity, personal formation, and practical ministry preparation.
