My Life Story and the Impact of CLI on my Ministry Life
I am Obeng Evans Lamba-Nygi from the country of Ghana. Currently, I am studying Bible and leadership courses at the Christian Leaders Institute (Learn more about online free Bible and leadership courses, Click Here).
Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief (1 Tim 1:15). Once in everyone’s lifetime, we were all lost without hope until we were saved by the gospel message.
Early Life
I grew up in a small community (Assin Praso) in the central region of Ghana. It is a community full of religious syncretism and social vices. My family did not have the spirit of God in its members. At a tender age, I fell into the forces of the community and into all sorts of social vices. Gambling was my greatest hobby, then fighting and stealing from others was my last resort after denial of admission into the university.
Encounter with God
I studied Christian Religious Studies in high school. However, I didn’t take whatever was said in class seriously. It was simply a requirement for an academic certificate. Whenever anyone presented the gospel to me, I vaguely argued without paying any attention to the message. Then, one night after gambling the whole day, I had a dream that the world was coming to an end. I found myself weeping when I woke up from that dream. I became so tense for some time. But eventually, I forgot about the dream and went back to my usual life. Then, I had the same dream for a second and third time before I ran to a nearby church for confession. I was baptized the following Sunday.
Life in Christ
Godliness with contentment is indeed a great gain. Life in Christ has been a blessing to me as I am more relieved of the worries and sleepless nights I had before. Immediately after giving myself to Christ, I gained admission to the university to study economics. At the university, I came across brethren who were spiritually strong and mature. They ushered me into an evangelism ministry. It totally changed my life and also boosted my appetite for winning more souls for Christ, especially in villages and small communities like where I grew up.
My Call to Ministry and Marital Life
My university days with the evangelism ministry challenged me to do more for Christ. Therefore, I had a thirst for more knowledge about Christ. I enrolled myself in a Bible School for some basic knowledge to proclaim the gospel. After my studies, I came to my current station in Prestea, a mining community in the western region of Ghana, to serve in the Lord’s vineyard. Through my service in Prestea, I met and married my wife. God has blessed us with two adorable children. My wife has been so supportive of my ministry work.
Vision and Mission
My vision in Christ is to know Him more and make Him known wherever He leads me. Being inspired by R J Stephen’s song, “The Gospel is For All,” I want to live my life as a born-again Christian and be a servant leader. My goal is to have more Bible and leadership knowledge so as to carry on with my rural evangelism. I want to make Jesus Christ known to others. With the help of CLI, I will achieve this goal.
Importance of CLI
Acquiring more knowledge, especially in the Word of God, is very expensive today in every part of the world. It is especially so here in a highly indebted, poor country like mine. Even getting an institution that will not only give you Biblical knowledge but also change your leadership lifestyle as we seek to lead people to Christ. The Christian Leaders Institute is an online and convenient institution that provides free Bible and leadership courses and a changed lifestyle in Christ. CLI also provides everyone with better and quality knowledge that many institutions charge higher amounts for.
It is my humble prayer that God continues to bless anyone who contributed to the establishment of the Christian Leaders Institute. May He also grant each and everyone who has enrolled or will enroll the understanding and knowledge needed to go through this training. Then, we can positively impact others with the gospel!
