Lily Frazier has a revival vision that started with music. Music was her passion – her world! She shared the joy of music with everyone through leading worship and singing at various places.
But when God put a further revival vision on her heart, Lily needed a place where she could come to study. When she discovered CLI, it seemed to good to be true. She could get a Bachelor of Divinity without relocating and racking up tens of thousands in college debt?! Was this just a scam, or was this God’s provision for her to pursue her revival vision?
As she completed classes, Lily saw that the CLI degree was of high quality. They had options for her to continue her education at great seminaries in the U.S. And best of all, the class schedule allowed her the flexibility she needed to continue to care for her family, including her disabled spouse.
I am so very thankful to have had the amazing educational support from CLI. I live in a small town in Indiana, USA. From the time I was small, I had the dream of becoming a singer. This dream led me to singing at weddings, and nursing homes, and, later in life, to lead worship music for the local Methodist church where I attended each Sunday. I thought that music was all that I was called for.. Boy was I wrong..
I was given the amazing opportunity to attend a weekend retreat called – The Walk to Emmaus.. During this renewal and awakening experience- I found a new passion to get to know Christ as my personal savior on an even deeper, more real level.. I have been hanging on to his guidance ever since.
My dream and focus have changed over the years, as God has revealed his will for my life, and as I have learned to listen more.. I don’t always get it right – but I do my very best – and God knows my heart.
My spouse of 11 yrs. is a Desert Storm Veteran who is 100% disabled. So the fact that I can take my seminary schooling online- means the world to me. CLI has made that possible and I could not be more thankful because it is leading me to become a student pastor at our local church. The Associates and Bachelors degrees I will obtain through CLI will allow me the credits to transfer to a Seminary where I can continue most of my studies online and obtain my Masters of Divinity degree. This Master’s of Divinity that I am preparing for will allow me to meet the requirements needed at the regional level of our church, so I can be then approved by the congregation and be seek ordination through the Indianapolis region of the Disciple of Christ church.
CLI has allowed me the chance to get quality – accredited educational studies and degrees from home, and this for me – is an answer to prayer. I am a full-time caregiver in my family and have first and foremost the needs of my loved ones to care for. With CLI- I am able to be obedient to the calling that God put upon my heart, and still care for those I love. The time and love and commitment CLI has put into these classes is very appreciated. Thank you for sharing my story, and please continue in prayer as I learn and grow to be who God wants me to be..

One of the great things about doing ministry service for God is that nothing disqualifies you. If you’re weak, God’s strength shines all the more in you. If you’re broken, God’s light shines even brighter. Even if you can’t do jobs in the human world, God’s kingdom will accept you for ministry service.
David Keller has firsthand knowledge of this. As a disabled army vet, David is now called by god to ministry service. However, because of his disability, he can’t afford the costs of traditional seminaries. But David found Christian Leaders Institute, and since joining he’s earned a Christian Leaders Diploma. He plans to use these classes to minister to other disabled vets.
I Live in Amarillo Texas in the United States, and the Ministries are very good, and the Churches are excellent though I am a Non-Denomination Pastor, and my ministry is both of the US and International. I strive to get all Christians together to share the word of God.
I came to know the Lord when I was five years old, and my grandmother started to teach me the Bible. I read along with her, and I read the Bible front to back. I was a Catholic and went to Catholic schools, and when I decided to go Non-Denominational, I went to College at Liberty University and Oral Roberts University.
The Dream of my Ministry is coming true with God’s help, right now I am working on a website, that will reach all the Internet. My purpose is to reach all Christians and share the word of God and to help as much as I can. I have friends that made this possible, Franklin Graham and Billy Graham, Rod Parsley and others that affected my life in the most positive way.
I would consider myself as an Evangelist because I like to talk and talk to people about the Lord. The Lord gave me the gift of speaking, and the speaking that I do is all about the Lord. People come up to me and ask me certain questions, and I would tell them what the word said, and also tell them that God is there for them whenever you need him.
The key was that when I was a small boy and I knew what the Bible has told me, and my grandmother told me that God had a reason I am here, and that is to minister and to give the word of our Lord and Savior to the people.
The Challenges in my Location is that people do not take the word of God very serious because I would go to a church and I sat in the back and being meek, I’ve seen a lot of people talking and showing off things that they have gotten while the Pastor was preaching. Now as a disabled Army vet myself there is a lot of Vet’s that are homeless and that they need the word of God.

Yunus Mohamed is on fire to bring revival to the country of Tanzania! Many in this country haven’t even heard the gospel of Christ yet. They’re deeply rooted in the ancient African religions, where they think they have hope and power. But Yunus Mohamed knows that hope and power come only through knowing Jesus Christ!
Praise the Lord saints! My name is Yunus Mohamed and I live in the country of Tanzania which is found in East Africa. I was born in the year 1990 as a second child of my mother who was among the three wives of my father. In the year 1997, my father died and left my mother as a widow. I lived with my mother while pursuing my studies from primary school up to high school.
In the year 2008, my mother, who was a Roman Catholic before married to my father, turned back to Christianity and was born again. The next year,2009, I also received Jesus as my personal saviour and Lord. It was the happiest moment in my life as the Lord spoke to me and told me that He has called me into His family. I also received the baptism of the Holy Spirit in the same year. My thirsty of seeking the Lord was increased and then the Lord spoke to me again and told me to serve Him as a pastor.
Due to that reason, I tried to search for the Bible colleges which provide biblical teachings, and found many of them. I once joined one college and study for two semesters and failed to continue with studies due to lack of finacnes to pay school fees. I returned back to home and tried to seek the will of God on my ministerial training. It happened that, one day when I was searching on the internet, I managed to meet with Christian Leaders Institute. I was very happy to see that I can get the training free of charge.
My dream is to be a servant of God who will bring revival in my country Tanzania. This is because there are lot of areas which have not yet reached by gospel ministers. Darkness is still reigning in their hearts; therefore, I need to reach those souls for harvest. I also need to work with Christ in preparing His church ready for His coming for the time is very near. My local church has supported me in my ministry by nurturing me in my daily walk with God. My family is also supporting me in my ministry by continual prayer and encouragement.
A scholarship with CLI is very important to me as it will help me to acquire ministerial training that will be helpful in my ministry. This is due to the fact that I do not have money to pay for a college, but CLI is a door to my ministerial dreams.
I really need your prayer so that the Lord will help me to get the area for opening the church, the musical instruments, and also the power of the Holy Spirit to continue flowing upon me so that I may minister effectively.
