Courses in Session

Dignity flows from the nature of God. When we experience the joy of encountering Him, and of allowing ourselves to be encountered BY Him, our spirits are grounded deeply at the core. Receiving dignity from God anchors our spirit.

The redemptive gifts are sooooooooo 1990s. They are one significant grid for understanding some aspects of your children’s design, but there is so much more than that. This class assumes you already have a solid grasp of the redemptive gifts of your children and are ready to build on that. In the teaching times I will explore new ways to look at your children’s ordinary, daily behavior, so you can mine those activities for clues to their design.

In Hemet, California, one of the two major drug producers decided to eliminate his rival. He loaded a pistol, got in his car and headed across town. On the way, he went by Bob Beckett’s church. His unregenerate spirit was drawn to the life of God on that property. Without knowing why, his hand turned the wheel into the lot, he parked the car, and knocked on the door of the pastor’s office saying, “I’m not sure why I am here.” Bob said, “I do. Come on in.”

Are you on a piece of property that needs some spiritual cleansing, but you don’t know where to start? There are a lot of tools for healing the land, but sometimes the greatest challenge lies in finding and interpreting the data and then choosing the right tools out of the toolbox. Where do you begin?

Who are you? If you are like most people, the answer is shrouded in ambiguity. Few of us grew up in a home where God’s design was celebrated and unpacked. Most of us were shoved into a uniform mold at an early age, expected to fit in to a culture, which showed little regard for individuality.

We call it a dance, this act of walking as both the Bride of Christ and the Sons of God. Challenging and sometimes confusing to the untrained eye, the cycle from one to the other is anything but tame. Like a roller coaster, its many twists and turns are exhilarating yet terrifying.

Daniele has walked the walk. She knows what it is to have healing without dignity. She also knows what it is to use the world’s “cleansers” of honor in an attempt to heal the shame. And she knows that honor is no match for old shame. She brings truths about the hard journey from shame to dignity, which she has fought hard for, has lived and has proven in the lives of others.

Why prepare for martyrdom? Because that is the direction history is going. Scripture announces it. The dominant forces in the culture are clearly marching relentlessly that direction. We also can see in Scripture that some martyrdom is high impact, and some is just a data point.

Daniele has a deep passion for the treasures of the French streams of the faith, and a keen awareness of some of the wounds that need to be addressed.

What truths would we discover if we studied Scripture from the perspective of creation, rather than from a human-centric perspective? From the creation story in Genesis to the re-creation of the heavens and the earth in Revelation, God reveals His plans for the incredible complexity of all that He created.

This course is designed to address one of the many reasons why our emotions can’t engage with the truth. It goes back to the Garden and the legitimacy that Adam and Eve lost when they sinned. The desire to regain that status is so strong that many of our ancestors believed the enemy’s lies and pursued power and control as a substitute. Some of those generational beliefs and curses may be blocking you from experiencing an intimate relationship with God now.

All of us are called to grow in intimate, experiential knowledge of each member of the Trinity. But each one of us, in our core design, will resonate more to the work of one member of the Trinity.

Have you ever witnessed a sincere Christian who gave God a bad reputation? It happens every day. Well-meaning believers fueled with truth accost bystanders, causing them to turn in disgust from the God represented. That’s not the way it’s supposed to be! In the Mercy season, the world is supposed to be drawn to Jesus by His pure fragrance leaking from us.
