Your Mission is Missions

Learn how to live your daily life on mission. We are all called to share the Gospel. It may look a little different for each of us but whether you are in Los Angeles, CA or Kampala, Uganda or a village in Burma we all have the same mission.

Righteousness & Identity

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!

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.

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;15Study 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”.

Fruit of the Spirit

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.

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.

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
