the Holy Spirit for what He is speaking through Kelly! Praise Jesus! I feel the balanced, beautiful nature of the Lord coming through her words. This is almost more than I'd hoped for. Current Student I wish I had taken this curriculum first before my grandchild's birth on 12-21. The last paragraph in Lesson 3 - module 3 is powerful. This classwork and reading is awesome. I love the way she blends the medical with the spiritual. I'm learning so much more than my previous training. I'm very thankful to be a part of this group. Current student I continue to be blessed and awed at the wisdom from the Lord in your curriculum and in your book. I am reading, Christ Centered Childbirth and I just read the chapter, "It's a God thing". This was very exciting to me to see the correlations between stages of pregnancy, the Christian walk and the Feasts of Israel. Surely the Lord has His hand print on every aspect of our lives and in His mercy has shown us the way of Salvation for those who have eyes to see. Thank you again, for sharing these revelations with us. Your curriculum is outstanding, with a high caliber of excellence. The graphics are beautiful and very helpful. I am delighted that the Lord has allowed me to be a part of this at this time, and made this available through you. Current student |
