A Work in Progress
I am Joshua Ligan from the Philippines. I graduated high school in 2009. Currently, I am working on finishing my college degree in Business Management. Being a student of Christian Leaders Ministries is a blessing for me! There are no hindrances or any problems in focusing on these studies. My family is also supporting me in studying the online Bible education for free at the Christian Leaders Institute (Learn more about free online Bible courses, Click Here).
Born into a family that knows Christ and loves Christ, my father was a pastor in our local church in our province. I’ll never forget that my dad always had the time to disciple us and teach us God’s Word from when I was still a kid. I first knew God’s salvation when my dad shared the gospel with me when I was 12 years old. My spiritual dream (and also my heart’s desire and prayer) is to proclaim, preach, and teach God’s Word to all people.
When I grew into a young man, there were a lot of struggles in my life. I started my college degree in 2009, but my heart back then was hard. So, I lived my life my way, which resulted in me having failing grades. It forced me to stop studying. I needed to work so I could provide for my studies. Again, I failed big time and almost did not live the Christian life.
God Changed My Life
Then, 2015 happened. I was living in sin until God personally and dearly spoke to me in Luke 15:20 “But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him, and kissed him.” In this verse, I realized how compassionate and gracious my God is. Even though I am dirty and full of sin, God is always there to welcome me back, hug me, and even kiss me.
Since that day, God has changed my life. I am a sinner saved by the grace of God through faith. This blessed gift God has given me. I am still a sinner, but His grace and faithfulness are always there to keep me from living a sinful life. I am to live a holy life and be sanctified by Him every day of my life. God is good! God is faithful and all to the glory of God alone!
Online Bible Education for Free at CLI
Now, I know that God has a great purpose in my life. I don’t know what. I don’t know when. But one thing that I do know is that I am to pursue God, seek His will and do the things that honor the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. That’s why I am here at CLI to study the Word of God deeper. I want to become a humble and effective minister and be trained for God’s glory and praise! Thank you, CLI for your online Bible education for free!
