Game Planning the Devil

The Word tells us that as believers we are not ignorant of the enemies devices. Ephesians teaches that we can take the shield of faith, with which we can quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.

Five Fold Ministry Gifts 

In this course you will study and identify the governing gifts of ministry leadership in both the global and local church as outlined in Ephesians 4. Those gifted in the office of five-fold ministry: apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor and teacher- are specifically anointed to advance the Kingdom by equipping believers for the work of the ministry, build and edify believers in both knowledge and maturity, and create unity within the body of Christ. For the body of Christ to function properly, each member has a role to play and unique gifts given by the Holy Spirit (Rom. 12; 1 Cor. 12). In this course you will learn how the five-fold ministry is to equip the saints so they can function in their gifts.

Pastor Robert Barriger

SENIOR PASTOR – CAMINO DE VIDA​

New Creation Realities

This course focuses upon the believer’s identity in Christ based on the revelation of the Pauline Epistles.  Paul, by the Holy Spirit, provides the revelation of what happened from the cross to the throne and to the present-day ministry of Jesus Christ and how that affects who and what we are in Christ today. When viewing yourself in the light of God’s redemption, you’ll recognize your position, rights and authority as a new creation in Christ. You don’t have to wait until you get to heaven to enjoy the benefits of the new birth. You will see who you are NOW in Christ and what you have NOW as a child of God.

Life of Faith

In this course students will become familiar with the God kind of faith, which is the same faith God placed in every believer. Faith is critical to our relationship with the Lord. Without faith, it’s impossible to please Him. The Spirit of Faith is necessary to live the abundant life, to do the will of God and fulfill your divine destiny. Believing AND speaking are necessary ingredients in the spirit of faith. Faith moves mountains. Faith won’t move anything until it moves YOU! 

Curtis Huntsinger

ELDER – GUTS CHURCH​

Ministry of Jesus

This course examines the person and ministry of Jesus revealed through a study of the Gospels and beyond. The Scripture tells us to consider, understand, to focus upon Jesus Christ, the author and finisher of our faith. In the life and ministry of Jesus we clearly see His message, miracles, being about His Father’s business, and triumphantly fulfilling His mission. These are powerful classes that discuss the person and the ministry of Jesus. Not only will you learn how He ministered, but how we can follow His example and apply it in our life and work for the Lord.

Pastor Taylor Scheer

Pastor – Guts Church

Submission & Authority

The God-ordained, creative authority given to every believer is examined in Scripture. Special attention will be paid to Jesus’ work in re-establishing mankind through the power of His blood and His name, destroying the power of the curse and returning the power of creativity and authority to mankind. Also discussed is the role of Submission in the life of a believer and how it affects your life and your ministry.

Rodger Wash

ELDER – GUTS CHURCH​

Doctrine of the Word

Each student must know that the Bible was written for them—they need not rely on scholars and teachers to interpret it. Jesus stated that after His departure that Another Comforter, Holy Spirit would come and that Holy Spirit would teach us all things, bring truth to our remembrance, guide us into applications of truth discovered.  We don’t devalue working in community with other believers and their insight, but we must not ignore our divine source of truth.  2 Timothy 2;15 “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman who needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” As ministers of God, we have a great responsibility to communicate God’s truth by having insight into the types, tools, and techniques of personal study, accurately handling the word of truth”.

Fred Brothers

– Guts Church

Righteousness

This course is a study of God’s revelation of righteousness to the Church. The message of righteousness runs throughout the Bible; from the creation of man to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Righteousness is one of the most important messages ever offered to the believer.

Scott Houston

ELDER – GUTS CHURCH​

Gifts of the Spirit

“There are varieties of spiritual gifts, but it is the same Spirit….To each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good (1 Cor. 12:4,7 AMP).  This course is the study of the gifts of the Holy Spirit, imparted through the grace of God for the edification of the body. In this course, you will gain a deeper understanding of each of the nine spiritual gifts (wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits, speaking in tongues, and interpretation of tongues) and discover your personal giftings and how their manifestation brings glory to God and empowers His people. 

Rachel Peters

Prayer

Paul encourages the church in Thessalonica to “pray without ceasing”.  A life of effective, powerful communion with the Father both deepens your relationship with Him and enables you to better incline yourself to and obey His voice. In this course Jesus is our ultimate example of praying with power and authority. This course teaches you biblical instruction and types of prayer, how to pray effectual and fervent prayers, and the creative power of praying God’s promises.  In addition, this course will include practice and application
