									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This lesson details the 6 stages of revelation when hearing Gods voice and uses the angel Gabriel appearing to Mary as an example. It reminded me in principal of the Kubler Ross grief model, especially around the hesitation phase where people can get stuck at this phase and not progress for years, even indefinitely. Its important that we&hellip;</p>

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This lesson provided a very simple but effective model for biblical decision making. It asks two main questions to diagnose the decision type: (1.) Its the situation referenced in scripture? (2.) Is it a life situation or questionable practice? From here it provides a longer set of questions to appropriately analyse the situation.

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This lesson focuses on the fact that God still speaks to us today and what we should do if we do not hear Him. For most of us its unlikely we will have a supernatural encounter like Moses and the burning bush but it does not mean that God is any less likely to speak to us.

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This lesson was about things that hinder intercessory prayer and I found it as useful as learning about intecessory prayer itself. It our heart isn’t in the write place, if we are actively sinning or if we are not seeking His kingdom first and using prayer as a wish list we are not partaking in intecessory prayer as He intended it. </p>
