We are passing on to you the advertisement below which allows you to sign up for a free course on the Constitution of the United States. We believe strongly that our Constitution is being violated by many of our elected officials, and they are being allowed to get away with this because their constituents do not know the limits the Constitution imposes on them. This results in great danger to the future of our nation, a nation we are passing on to our children. So do not be ignorant. Know what the Constitution teaches. Hold your government officials accountable, or vote them out of office.

Those desiring may transfer credits from this course into CLU. 

My daughter Charity has a very interesting post today. I don't think it's a topic many of us have ever spent a lot of time thinking about, but I believe you'll find that what she shares makes sense, and most importantly, is scripturally sound.

Enjoy this unique perspective and new way of looking at the Kingdom! And then ask the Lord for more of His understanding of family, too.

Be blessed!

Dennis Atwater, a Christian Leadership University student, shares the following: Today while driving to work through the forest near where I live I wanted to step out and try to "see" as I have been learning in the course 4 Keys to Hearing God's Voice.

I am loved! God loves me so much that even when I was a sinner, He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for me. The blood of Christ cleanses me and makes me just as if I had never sinned. God loves me in the midst of my imperfections and weakness. Therefore I come into agreement with my Father's view of myself, and I say, "I love myself, fully, totally, unconditionally; regardless of how well I perform. I am God's child. I am precious. I am precious enough that God sent Jesus to die on a cross for me! Amazing love! Amazing grace! I stand forgiven, cleansed, restored, healed and decked out in His beauty! I am amazing! I am beautiful. Thank you, Lord, for this wonderful grace that pours down upon me! I receive it. I say yes to it. I come into agreement with it. I am amazing. Thank you, Lord!"

Here is a wonderful gift to enjoy and to forward to your friends! Our Free Course Sampler allows you to experience one week of lessons from four of the revelation-based, life-changing online modules in our School of the Spirit. If you try them, I believe you will agree, there is nothing like them anywhere in the world! They are powerful, personal and touch your heart and life in ways Christian training seldom does.

Just over three years ago I, Lisa Verbruggen, was introduced to hearing the Voice of God and knew right away that it was a gift I wanted to give my children.  I purchased the book for teens and we began going through it, simplifying it where needed for them.  We went through it twice and by the end they were all hearing God's voice as part of our morning devotion times. They receive so easily and readily.

One thing I have seen through their journaling is how much God desires to establish His great love for them.  I have also seen the security they experience resting in His love.   A few times in the last year after some challenging days for our family, I took the morning off to soak and journal with the children.  They received so much I was unable to give them at the time.  They can receive from their perfect Heavenly Father.

My daughter Charity has an excellent word about Jesus' example for us. He lived out of divine initiative, doing only what He saw His Father do and heard His Father speak.

How can we make that work in our everyday life? What does it actually look like for us? Charity gets into all this and more and I trust you'll be blessed by the message she shares.

Enjoy!

We are sad to see Dr. Karen King leave our CLU staff after 11 years of blessing our students with her service. However, we rejoice with her over the new season the Lord is bringing her into! Karen has started a church in Ohio, and as it has continued to flourish her pastoral responsibilities have become more demanding, making it difficult for her to continue on as a CLU instructor.

My daughter Charity has some great thoughts about seeing in the spirit and hearing God's voice. Is the ability to sense the spirit a divinely-imparted gift bestowed on a few? Or is it a skill that we can all learn to cultivate and develop through time and practice? 

You'll appreciate her word and I trust it will be a great encouragement to you to keep pressing in for all the Lord has for you.

Be blessed!

What does it take to become a skilled, anointed leader in an area, in any area of life? Let’s say, for instance, we desire to master the release of God’s miracle-working power flowing out through our lives so that suffering is alleviated and the kingdom of God is extended. How does one successfully release the gift of miracles? Having just returned from the Voice of the Apostles Conference and being scheduled to do a miracle service myself, I am immersed in this question. I need healing and miracles to work!
