A Windmills Guide to finding and fulfilling your God-given role in life
'There are two really important dates in our lives – the day we are born and the day we understand why'

what is it?

'Play Your Part' is a simple life coaching booklet designed for Christians to help them think about their God –given purpose, what's happening in their lives and how their faith interacts with the roles that we fulfil.
'Play your Part' encourages Christians to take a fresh look at their life and consider:

It can also be useful for people who are starting to think about the Christian faith and help them to explore some of the bigger questions in life.

where has 'play your part' come from?

The booklet has been designed by 3 members of the Windmills team who are passionate about using their training and coaching skills to help Christians. Being impossible to run Windmills workshops for Churches and Christian communities across the UK and the World it was decided to create a booklet that individuals can access and skilled Christian facilitators could take and use so that their own congregations and communities can access some of the Windmills tools to aid people in their faith journey.

how is it used?

At the most simple level it can be used by an individual to work through on their own however the resource really comes to life when the results of the activities and thinking is discussed with others, e.g.
  • Small/house group short programme (over a number of weeks)
  • Weekend Residential
  • 1 day workshops
  • Faith Conferences – modules to get people thinking
