Your point is right on target: God designed growth to happen alongside leaders, mentors, and fellow believers. When people treat faith as a private, isolated experience, they miss the correction, encouragement, and clarity that come from the body… Read more

The final lesson in the course is titled “Modern Application for Individuals” and looks at the aspects of applying Scriptures to ourselves and others as individuals. The […]

When we speak, bind, loose, or stand in the gap, we’re not operating as spiritual “patrons” trying to push something out of our lives. We’re acting as those who carry the legal right of Christ’s name and the active power of His Spirit.

This chapter taught that intercession relies on authority rather than power of force. It is interesting to picture analogies for the two. A property owner is able to remove patrons off […]

This gives a quick view of what to expect. Just by reading this I already have more interest in reading more. The verse that stood out is about how to drink milk first and when matured, you will be reading to eat the meat. Start small but do…

This chapter already taught me to be patient and get to know the basics first for a solid foundation

In studying the Hebrew bible just…

In reply to - Jeff Jacinto posted an update The Hebrew Bible, or Old Testament, can be challenging because it contains passages that reflect the customs, language, and historical realities of the ancient world.

We have to actively apply what God has already given us, with confidence. This falls in line with Mathew 12:34 – …..”For what the mouth speaks is what the heart is full of.” Be planted in Gods word and you will have access to the “tools/weapons” for spiritual warfare.

This lesson focuses on offensive strategies in spiritual warfare. As with defensive strategies our hearts and minds must be fixed on Him and we must be regularly filling our hearts and […]
