Christian Leaders Institute – A Detailed Discussion
Does Free Mean Free?
In what ways is this opportunity “free?”
Nothing is free from expense; someone must support the creation and maintenance of the courses. That is where Christian Leaders (Ministries) come in. Christian Leaders is a 501(c) religious non-profit founded in 2001 by Henry Reyenga, Rich DeVos, and Ron Parr. The vision is to multiply difference-makers for Christ in every rank, every race, and every region.
So, free means accessible to you and millions of others who may need an opportunity; the poor and rich of the world have the same access. If you have access to the internet, you can access free Christian resources. Some of you may be in a position to help support this opportunity so that poor people can access high-quality education. We welcome you to give, but you have no obligation.
What is the Purpose of the Christian Leaders Institute?
Christian Leaders has created three programs that give you access to opportunity. The first program is the Christian Leaders Institute. You are at the Christian Leaders Institute website.
