Hear From Our Students

"The wisdom from Dr. Self is so helpful"

"This course [Pastoral Counseling] was very helpful in the area of helping to shepherd God's people. The topics discussed are very real issues today within the body of Christ. They were very informative and I received much to help aid me in bringing restoration to peoples lives. I specifically enjoyed the lesson 2 and 3 on addictions and mirroring. I minister a lot to people who are in addictive bondages. The wisdom from Dr. Self is so helpful! The tips on clear communication was very insightful on how to repeat and allow expression of feelings behind the phrases! I'm happy to say, I have already used these counseling tools. My spiritual toolbox has increased!"

Jeannette Connell

" Now I, with confidence, can relinquish control"

"This course [The School of the Prophets] has been additional confirmation to me of my calling. The principles of which have added to my continued fortification of my foundation in Christ on which I shall stand firm against the enemy. The discernment acquired has not only enlightened my understanding to the hope of my calling, but released me from a sense of obligation to completion. Of what I do not know. Yet, duty and honor bond to fulfill before the anointing will flow, or so it seemed. Now I, with great confidence, can relinquish control, allowing the Holy Spirit to lead me as the Lord intends. To God be the glory!!!"
