Our Courses

Touching Lives! Instilling Hope! Sharing Jesus!

Courses consists of three components: Lessons, Topics, and Quizzes.
“Lessons” are the main content, “Topics” are smaller sections within the lesson that expand upon an idea (not every lesson has topics), and “Quizzes” consist of free response questions where you demonstrate your understanding of the course concepts.
As you navigate through this course, only the quizzes will be submitted and reviewed. You may mark lessons and topics complete for your reference, but the section is not finished until the quiz is submitted.
As quizzes are manually graded, please allow 7 to 10 days to receive feedback on your responses.

CHP 003 – Developing a Godly Attitude

The "Developing a Godly Attitude" course is designed to help the student understand how a person's attitude will "make him or break him" in life. Jesus' greatest desire is for us to enjoy the best life (abundant) possible! Enjoying life requires the student to exam his attitudes and how his attitude affects daily living. After inward examination, does he need to leave his attitudes the same or develop them to glorify God.

CHP 002 – The Art of Listening

The "Art of Listening" course provides basic concepts and techniques which will increase your listening skills and improve your counseling ministry. Your attention to detail and concentration on course materials will parallel the development of your personal "art of listening".
To competently listen to another person requires special skills and a personal desire to learn the art. Throughout the course you will participate in active skill training where you practice the skills you learn. Listening is a difficult art. Be patient, pace yourself, do not rush through the course. Learn each skill, practice the skill and begin to incorporate the skill into your daily life and ministry.
We pray that the following lessons and exercises will not only improve your skills, but increase your love for the Lord and serving others.
