My name is Taylor Walton and I was born in the United States in Wichita, Kansas in 1997, but now reside in Denver, Colorado and have since 1998. I was raised in a home where my family wasn’t very spiritual and weren’t on their spiritual walk with God. I found my faith when I was fourteen years old after facing two years of depression and anxiety. My dream for the ministry is to become a Youth Leader or a Pastor. I never saw myself as the person to join the ministry but after facing my struggles and fight with the Devil through my early teen years I want to do everything I can to show people the Word of God and His love. I may face some problems in my walk in ministry in Denver though seeing as there are so many teenagers that are so convinced there is no God and as anyone knows, teenagers can be stubborn. My local church is the church that showed me ministry was my calling and they have supported me unknowingly lately by showing me what I can do if I start a church of my own. My family has also been an amazing support system for me with ministry. Receiving a scholarship from CLI is very important to my ministry dream for a few reasons. One of those reasons is that I want to start as soon as possible and with a scholarship I can. Another reason is that it would push me from giving 120% to giving 170% on my classwork. Please pray for my walk through ministry as I am going to need to stay focused, stay away from temptation as much as possible and not let anyone talk me out of my dream, thank you. God bless you all.
Ministry Training In Zambia
Ministry Training in Zambia continues in earnest. The official language of Zambia give Christian Leaders a great opportunity for ministry training in Zambia on the Interent.
Mataa Mulife is a recent graduate at CLI. Here is his story.
I am a Zambian by Nationality, a landlocked country in Southern Africa.
It is the only country in the world that was declared a Christian nation and this declaration is enshrined in the country’s constitution. This makes doing ministry easier in Zambia as three-quarters of the population are Christians.
I was born again in the year 2004 through a group called the Scripture Union, when I was doing my 9th Grade at Secondary School. I have a dream to win more souls to the Lord, and I would Identify myself as a Church Planter because of my desire to plant churches throughout the country as well as to train leaders. I am convinced that I am called into ministry.
The only challenge in ministry in our location is the fact that most people calling themselves men of God are deceiving people and doing ministry for their personal benefits. My local church has ben so supportive in my ministry and walk with God in that I am taught the undefiled word of God and thank God that CLI has been able to confirm the teachings I receive from my church.My family has to been supportive in that they help with ministry financially, as well as moral support by believing in me and my calling.
Finally acquiring a scholarship from CLI is one of the best things that has ever happened in my life. This scholarship will help me fulfill my dream of planting more churches in Zambia. I ask the CLI Leadership and team to pray for me that the Lord will give me the grace to fulfill with the vision He has given me.
Ministry Training in Zambia is very effective at CLL. Over 123 graduates have graduated from Christian Leaders Institute. Praise the Lord!
