Preaching Ministry Training
My name is Marie-Louise Kellner and I feel called to get preaching ministry training. I’m 21 years old. I live in Leuven, not far from the capital city of Belgium. I have two nationalities, I’m half Belgian and half Algerian. Therefore I grew up in a strong Muslim family. From my most early childhood, I grew up with the traditions of being a Muslim. The matter of fact is that I NEVER believed in God until I turned 16. When I was 12, I lost my father and that led to my downfall into drugs. I couldn’t cope with the pain of losing the man of my life, my hero and my best friend. When I turned 16, I overdosed for the second time. It was pretty serious as I stayed in a coma for 15 days and 3 months in the hospital. Pretty messed up, right? During my stay in the hospital, a pastor visited me regularly. Thanks to him, I started to ask myself the big questions about life and about God. From one thing to another, I started to believe that there was a God that actually loved me. But it wasn’t the God that my mother believed in but a God whose Son’s name is Jesus. Five years later, I’m still believing in Jesus, with ups and downs, and I love my new life!
A few days ago, I was looking through the internet to find some online classes on theology and preaching ministry training. It has been a while that I’m thinking of starting to be more involved in the church that I go to. I have felt like I have a call to lead people through the word of God. Then, a few weeks ago, the lead pastor of our church had a revelation about me that showed him I was going to be preaching the Gospel in front of a church assembly. To do that, I need the right training and education. And I believe that Christian Leaders Institute will provide me with the right tools to accomplish my calling.
As I said in the previous paragraph, I feel like my calling is in the preaching ministry. But just attending normal college classes of theology is not that easy for me. That is also why I was looking for a digital version that I could study after my work shifts. But even by working a lot of hours, I can’t afford a traditional training. Therefore, this scholarship at Christian Leaders Insitute would really help me go further in discovering the plans that God has for me in my walk with Him.
