Teaching the Abounding Faith Online Class at the NYSB in June

I’m thrilled to announce that I will once again be teaching a summer class at the New York School of the Bible (NYSB). The Abounding Faith: Choosing Faith Over Fear class will be an online course taught on the following Monday nights: June, 1, 8, 15 and 22.

Ladies and Gents, I hope you will join me for this timely class that will help fuel your faith. You can take the Abounding Faith class from the comfort of your own home, no matter what state you’re in.

Join me for this powerful time of fortifying our faith by delving into God’s Word and discussing God’s awesome track record for coming through for His people.

Here is the course description:

As Christians, we are called to walk by faith and not by sight.  Many times that is easier said than done, especially during this trying time we are facing.  In this class, we will look at the lives of various Heroes of Faith from the Bible and examine how their faith in God was tested and thus learn how God came through for them in their greatest time of need.  The insights we glean from their experiences will help to equip and empower you to trust God’s faithfulness no matter what challenges or obstacles you may face.  This course is designed to fuel your faith for without faith, it is impossible to please God.

Registration should open today. Please click here for more information.

I’m honored to be part of the NYSB’s faculty. It’s such a blessing to get to teach this course that is based on my second book, Abounding Faith: 30 Bible Heroes Who Will Inspire You to Believe God for the Impossible! 

It’s a joy to inspire others in their faith.

God is Good!

Please tell others about this empowering and faith-igniting class.

Thanks for your prayers and support and thanks for staying on this faith adventure with me.

Stay well. Stay encouraged. Choose faith over fear 🙏

Reflections on a Few Summer Surprises

The Lord saw it fit to surprise me this summer in a few ways including these opportunities (pictured above) to teach and speak.
 
I’m grateful for every opportunity I get to encourage and inspire groups as they walk by faith and live their God-given dreams!
 
It was a blessing to teach a summer class at the New York School of the Bible in June based on one of my books and then to teach a Life Skills class at The Bowery Mission’s Women’s Center in July based on another one of my books. It was also a delight to share testimonies at a local church and lead Chapel at The Bowery Mission’s Tribeca site.

 

God is so Good!

 

None of these speaking and teaching opportunities were on my calendar at the beginning of the year, but God already had them planned.

 

We just need to be available and willing. God knows what’s on the other side of our Yes!

 

I’m looking forward to continuing to share messages of hope with more groups.
 
Local Ladies, I’d love to encourage you at Abounding Faith’s BELOVED Women’s Conference! You can register here.
 
I’d also be delighted to share an uplifting Bible-based message at your church, school, conference, chapel service, retreat or outreach event. Your group will be inspired and filled with hope. Learn more here.
 
Thanks for your continued prayers and support! Blessings!

Reflections on Teaching the Abounding Faith Class at a Local Bible School

“Taking this course changed my life.” – Student, Abounding Faith: Believing God for the Impossible class

I’m still in awe of the beautiful feedback I got from the lovely ladies in my Abounding Faith: Believing God for the Impossible summer class at the New York School of the Bible (NYSB).

What a blessing it was to teach a class based on one of my books at the same Bible school I attended a few years ago!

It was a joy and honor to encourage my students to BELIEVE!

I’m overwhelmed by their feedback.

The same student quoted above said reading the Abounding Faith: 30 Bible Heroes Who Will Inspire You to Believe God for the Impossible devotional helped to awaken barren places in her life and helped her be content in other areas of her life.

Another student is hoping there will be an Abounding Faith Part 2 class.

To my delight, I kept gaining students as the weeks went on instead of losing students during the beautiful summer Saturdays in NYC.

I was stunned when one lady showed up during the last class and announced, “I’m prepared to fail this class because I haven’t been able to make it the other weeks, but I had to come to meet you. You were so vibrant on the phone.”

I’m speechless. The Lord loves to surprise me!

The women were sweet, smart and studious. We had lively and heartfelt discussions about the Bible heroes we covered in class and about what God was stirring in our hearts.

One student said that as she was reading the Abounding Faith book, she felt the Lord calling her to pursue her bachelor’s degree and get better prepared for her future ministry work. Amazing!

Others shared how they were encouraged by the Bible heroes they read about and were challenged  by the reflection questions in the Abounding Faith devotional.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from teaching a summer class on Saturday mornings in June. I didn’t know who would show up and how it would go, but God provided the students and met us in class each week.

I’ve been at podiums and pulpits at churches and chapel services lately.  I’m grateful that God saw it fit for me to reenter the classroom setting.

Back when I was a student in this very same room, I never dreamed that one day I’d return as a member of the faculty. I’m honored that the NYSB gave me this opportunity to teach a class based on one of my books.

I’m also honored to have gotten to inspire my faithful students.

Only God knows what’s next…. thank you for your prayers and encouragement!

If you’d like to get a copy of Abounding Faith: 30 Bible Heroes Who Will Inspire You to Believe God for the Impossible, you can find it in print or on Kindle on Amazon.

If you’d like to invite me to speak at your church, school, conference, chapel service or other event, you can learn more here.

Abounding Faith Class in Full Swing at the New York School of the Bible

What an honor it was to teach my very first Abounding Faith: Believing God for the Impossible class at the New York School of the Bible (NYSB)!

There was a sweet spirit among the lovely ladies who attended the first class this past Saturday.

I think my late Senior Pastor would be proud to know that I’m teaching at the same Bible school he suggested I attend a few years ago.

What a joy to get to encourage others in their faith by sharing some of the lessons I learned while writing my second book Abounding Faith: 30 Bible Heroes Who Will Inspire You to Believe God for the Impossible! (Available on Amazon).

Local Ladies, there’s still time to sign up for the remaining three classes. Come and be encouraged in your faith! You can register today.

Here’s a few pics of me in teacher mode. God is Good!

God continues to surprise me in delightful ways. I hope you’re having a wonderful unofficial start to your summer as well. Blessings!
