Qualification Reviews
Wow what an awesome, incredibly enriching and educational course.
For these last few years, (yes it took me a little longer to get through it,) I have been blessed with amazing teaching from very competent and engaging lecturers that brought the truth of what it means to be a minister of the gospel and unpacking of what that gospel is. Through the years I have studied at different colleges and always found it heavy going, but this has been an utter delight. I also have a passion to continue to study and Axx has given me the quality yet affordability to get further qualifications in my lifes work to be a blessing to others. So blessed and appreciative of all that I have had the privilege to learn from. I thoroughly recommend this course to those wishing to know our incredible God more and how to express that knowledge to others in clear and understandable terms.
successful graduate
I am excited to get a certificate in pastoral ministry. I would like to continue for further courses which Axx will provide.
God bless Axx.
I took my time to reflect on the learning, there are numerous gems throughout the topics.
How to hear, recognise and know God’s voice is one of the most important elements to connect with God and to be sustained in my life. I got to do a lot of practical applying of God’s word. Praying, waiting, listening out for God’s voice. I loved the reverence in this teaching. I also love how Kay prays for me at the end of a subject. That is special.
Accompanied with the Ministry zone: anointing, abilities and heart, and God’s calling on my life, wow! Was magnificent teaching
To end with God’s calling to Go is the nudge needed to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Thank you.

Summary
For all courses I have learned many issues to my life which are type of leadership to the church , many churches are don’t stable because of dictatorship leadership , founders of the churches most of them they don’t want any member to the church to ask on money and other resources ,pastors are considering that the property of the church are their family properties.
Also to many churches the administration structure are not available a pastor is a leader of everything.
Not only that but also many of leaders are not depending God to their ruling their ruling as their selves and not the power of God and the fainaly the church fail.

Thank you for the amazing teaching
Stability and Confidence in knowledge
This course has been really enlightening especially in the area of Trinity. Trinity has often been one of those areas in which I conflict with friends and others who wish to know more on this area. During this course, i have gotten a clear cut of what Trinity is all about, its origin, its proofs in the bible not as the term Trinity but especially as three in one God. Equally, i have a better understanding of their roles and their unity in their functioning as deities of the same rank.
Not only are mine now stable in my view of what Trinity is all about, I am now confident that in the way i can teach and bring others to the understanding of this topic.
I am so grateful to be part of this program because as I go through each course, my understand and knowledge keeps improving by the day.

This study has taught me about the Trinity and how they work in the life of a believer

A must for anyone considering missions work !
I found this course to be incredibly insightful into all the aspects of missionary work. Kay took me through many concepts that I hadn’t considered when thinking of our culture meeting different cultures and how we apply Christianity. Matt was very insightful and hearing his journey in the suburbs gave me tools for my context. Great course and will be a continued resource.
