The Foundation for Economic Education and Christian Leaders Institute are partnering to provide free, high-quality training for Christian Leaders Institute students and graduates. Christian Leaders Institute looks for partnerships with organizations that seek to glorify God in every area of life. This partnership will be foundational for our desire to help local Christian leaders excel in providing for their families whatever their income-earning situation is.
The Foundation for Economic Education was founded in 1946 by Leonard E. Read to study and advance the freedom philosophy. Today, Dr. Lawence Reed heads up this organization. CLI appreciates how Dr. Reed sees economics seeking to let free people be allowed to live out the “cultural mandate” of Genesis 1:28. Reed believes that “character” is core to economics. Check out one of his presentations Liberty and Character. Watch Dr. Reed as he was interviewed in a segment by John Stossel of FOX news.
Christian Leaders Institute is praying about introducing a Christian Enterprise Program of Study in the future years, depending on whether the Lord provides the funds, partnerships, and professors. We believe this program of study could impact millions of lives. The Foundation for Economic Education and CLI are now partnering with a core economic class as a first step toward a complete Christian Enterprise program of study. We prayerfully intend to develop Christian Enterprise classes grounded in a vivid Christian world and life view.
One of the things Christian Leaders Institute likes about the Foundation for Economic Education is their commitment to offering free, high-quality training, especially to young people, mentors, and teachers. Dr. Lawence Reed and CLI president Henry Reyenga share the common passion of bringing education to leaders everywhere. Reyenga believes that this partnership will help Christian leaders be more effective in their lives and ministry. Reyenga wants to bring this wealth of economic to the Christian Leaders Institute audience that includes all ages from young to old. Their material fits well with our vision of making difficult concepts understandable.
The Foundation for Economic Education is located in Atlanta, Georgia. FEE provides free events available in various parts of the United States. Click this link to find out more.
MINISTRY IN SOUTH-AFRICA
Hi, my name is Johan du Plessis. I am 24 years old and currently living in South-Africa.
Ministry in South-Africa is challenging in South-Africa. There are a lot of religions, and is free to practice as each person sees fit. I feel that a high percentage of Christians in South-Africa are caught in a “traditional church” system. Witchcraft is also very popular among the local African people, however this serve as an environment where people can see and experience God through fellow Christians.
I have started my relationship with God at the age of 21, a few years after the divorce of my parents. Before this, I was living fully in the world, but was always searching for something more, until I met Jesus one Sunday morning.
My ministry dream is to focus on the youth. To reach teenagers who are going through the same trails I had gone through, and lead them to Christ. This is also the category I identify with most. I feel that I have a great connection with the youth will serve the Lord most sufficient in this area.
The day I fully gave my life to Jesus Christ, my plans fully changed as well. I now live to serve Him. I strongly feel that I am called into ministry to be a tool for the work of God the Father, Jesus and the Holy Ghost.
My local church supports me in my ministry calling, and the Leader of our church is also my mentor.
I am the middle child of three. I have two sisters who love and serve the Lord dearly. During our parents divorce we grew very tightly and were introduced to the Lord in approximately the same time. This is mostly because during this time, my mother kept on pursuing God, despite the difficult time we went through as a family. However today, 7 years later, my father and mother are reunited. With my father being born again, and baptized at the age of 51, this is one of the great miracles that happened in my family, and give the Lord all praise for He is good, always!
As a law student, specializing in Labor Law, I will benefit from the scholarship program from CLI, as post degree studies are quite expensive, and doing two courses without the CLI scholarship at once will not be financially possible.
CLI can pray that the Lord will protect and guide me in all my ways. As serving other people and winning them over for God is the ultimate in life.
