Disciple Training Call
My name is Carly Pinch, and I have a disciple training call on my life. I’m a 17-year-old American and grew up in the church. I made a profession of faith when I was very young. In 2015, I listened to a podcast called The Christian Artist. Over the past years, I became close friends with the hosts, two brothers in Janesville, Wisconsin. Their names are Caleb and Connor, and there is another brother Chase. I went to visit them in the summer of 2018. They encouraged my love for theology and the desire to know more about God’s Word and what it commands of me as a Christian. I’ve been a Calvinist since the beginning of 2018.
I draw and do spoken word as well as enjoy playing RPGs with my friends from the other side of the country. I’m a co-host on the podcast now, and my dream is to be able to continue to do that and ministry evangelism with them after college.
Free Ministry Training at CLI
This class at Christian Leaders Institute reminded me that we as Christians still need to hear the gospel ourselves, for it is the power of God for salvation. I would identify most with the title of a disciple. I have a disciple training call on me at this time. I desire to help others come to Christ, but I know I can not do it alone.
I live in the Pacific Northwest, specifically Washougal, Washington. This area is plagued by depression, anxiety, and suicide even more than other regions of the country. So, that fact makes it difficult to receive any responsiveness to the gospel. There’s much hopelessness. My local church has cared for me in spurring on my interest in right theology and embracing me in fellowship. My dream is more of being uplifted by the local church and being significantly involved in more ministry opportunities.

Free Christian Minister Crisis Training
Hello, my name is Catherine Bowersock, and I need this free Christian minister crisis training at CLI. I was born in Chicago, Illinois and grew up in Gary, Indiana. I came to Texas in 1979 and stayed here since there is no place like Texas for me. At this time, I attend a Baptist church, and we have an awesome pastor. However, over the years I have attended many different denominational churches and have thoroughly enjoyed each one.
I knew from the time I was a little child that there was a power that protected me. It was not until I was in my teenage years when I discovered that power was Jesus Christ. He has always been with me throughout my life. And, actually, He has saved me from several life-threatening situations. God has always been real to me, even as a child.
Ministry Call and Free Christian Minister Crisis Training
I will use my Christian Leaders Institute free Christian minister crisis training to help young girls and women in crisis. Especially, I am drawn to those girls and women who have been abused, raped, or on drugs. I want to help them reconcile their lives with God with Jesus Christ. Helping them heal and find their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is my ministry dream.
Free Christian minister crisis training is so very necessary for me at this time in my life. My husband and I live on a very limited income. Christian Leaders Institute training will give me the opportunity to pursue my ministry call. I thank the Christian Leaders Institute for offering this wonderful Christ led and Spirit-filled opportunity. May God’s blessing be upon you always, in all ways.

Free Ministry Study Opportunity
My name is Russell Chiputura, and I appreciate the free ministry study opportunity at CLI. Being born in Chitungwiza, Harare, Zimbabwe, I live in Harare. I am a writer/author, entrepreneur, and speaker. I founded an organization called Revive and a company called Strategy. Revive is an organization that preaches the gospel through articles, books, and visual content. Strategy is a company that provides businesses with formal structures to run a successful business. I am the elder son of two in our family.
Early Life and Conversion
I have no Christian background. Regardless of my poor Christian experience, I found myself interested in going to church. When I was around six years old, I would insist on going to church even if I had no one to accompany me. I attended a local Seventh Day Adventist church in Chitungwiza. They had a class that I attended, and they shared Christ with me. That is when I was born-again. The love of Jesus continued to be evident everywhere I went after that.
When I was 14 years of age, I received a prophecy from a school mate that God had called me. It didn’t make sense to me then. Calling was not an easy thing to embrace. I later became the president of my school scripture union and held many leadership positions. I was destined to be a leader but thought I was not. When I was 18 years old, I received a definite prophecy that God had called me into ministry.
Ministry Journey
The knowledge of the calling upon my life triggered a great dilemma. I wanted to pursue accounting, but then, my calling showed up. It wasn’t easy for me to commit to this unexpected path because of my surrounding circumstances. The pastors I knew were not financially stable, and ministry was a most unattractive occupation. My social sphere and my mother were firmly against this ministry idea. Where I come from, academics always win. Getting a degree has proven to be a solution to the poverty crisis. So, everyone offers great praise toward that. Any occupation that doesn’t fall in the range of making money is dismissed and undervalued.
Then, I went to South Africa to pursue accounting. Leaving for South Africa intensified the dilemma. Multiple negative encounters interrupted my accountant journey. Then, I heard God audibly speak to me. He said, “Leave whatever you are doing, do my work.” From that moment, I changed my work direction. I wrote my first book and started to preach at my local church. Then, I moved back to Zimbabwe to be close to my spiritual mentors before I went into full-time ministry.
Free Ministry Training at CLI
I was puzzled how I could tackle all the responsibilities that are demanded by my endeavors. Being a business owner, author, and speaker was challenging. How was I to attend a full-time ministry training institution? When I found out about the Christian Leaders Institute, it was a dream come true. I can fulfill all my life responsibilities and get quality ministry training simultaneously. Now I look forward to my free ministry study opportunity with CLI.
