The Communion With God Study Guide has been rewritten and is being re-released as How to Hear God’s Voice! Order today for a discount of more than 50%!
Twenty years after the first release, we have completed our first full rewrite of the 200-page Communion With God Study Guide. This greatly improved book has been re-titled “How To Hear God’s Voice”, and is set to be released January 8th. Get a sneak peek at the Table of Contents and Chapter One here.

New sections include:
How to Posture Your Heart to Ensure that the Flow Is the Holy Spirit
How to Possess Your Promised Land
The Origin of Thoughts, Biblically and Philosophically
Working Definitions Concerning Spiritual Realities
Starter Questions for Beginning Journalers

After 25 years of hands-on experience teaching others, using this method ourselves, and fine-tuning every possible aspect of the process, we can speak the message with much greater boldness, clarity and conviction. We believe this edition will bring in a much larger audience to hear the message of communion with God, and we want to give you the first opportunity to obtain this book and to help us spread the word.

This new 320-page interactive learning manual retails for $24.95. During January of 2006 we are offering you more than a 50% discount – only $12 each on the purchase of at least two copies, with no maximum limit. You can buy as many copies as you want to distribute to others at this great limited-time price! And if you are ordering How to Hear God’s Voice to give to a pastor, we will help you with an even lower price of only $8 for his or her copy, only during January 2006. Please help us share the gift to equip the saints for ministry and bring Christ’s Bride into a conversational relationship with her Groom.

Age 91 and Journaling!
“Since I attended your seminar on ‘Communion with God’ last January (followed up by studies in our Sunday School), my life with Jesus has been revolutionized through daily journaling. The greatest gift I have received through this is a new picture of myself. My life has always been based on the conviction that ‘I have to prove that I am worth having around.’ In over 40 years as a Christian this did not basically change until Jesus, over and over again, with gentle patient encouragement told me how He sees me. Now at 91, I often feel I’ve just begun to truly live as if it is not I who lives, but Christ who lives in me, and each day is a new adventure. Here is a sample of a message (excerpt of yesterday’s):

“‘Just stay filled with Me. Nothing is more precious to Me than the hunger in My children to know Me better; to learn to die to themselves, which simply means to realize how much more satisfying, lasting, meaningful, joyous, is the life My Father wants to give you: the life of the risen Christ. To find eternally valid answers like Paul did. Just keep tuned, keep yearning, keep expecting, keep trusting. A thousand years may be like a day for Me, but also a day thus lived has the value of a thousand years.’

“May you and your family have a very blessed Christmas! I am very grateful for you and your faithful ministry. In His love, Eva Wilkinson.”


Ministry in Korea
I had three very successful seminars in Korea, all through translators. The first was Prayers That Heal the Heart. It was amazing to watch well over 100 people receive deliverance as they broke up into 22 groups with 22 group leaders ministering to them. I took one group and ministered deliverance through a translator. The power of God setting people free was awesome to see. All across the sanctuary deliverance was occurring, and the manifestations were more intense than they are here in the U.S. I assume that may be because there are stronger demonic strongholds as many have been recently converted to Christianity from other religions.

The second seminar was Dream Interpretation, and again it was astounding to be able to interpret 6-8 dreams in front of a group of several hundred. Even though I was working through a translator and dealing with another culture, the principles of Christian Dream Interpretation worked beautifully, and people’s hearts leapt when they heard the right interpretation.

The final seminar was Communion With God with over 100 present, and they all began to journal and many came to the front to share their journaling. Many made commitments to begin home groups where they would take their friends through the new How to Hear God’s Voice book, available in Korean.

The anointing of God is amazing! May you all be encouraged to take these courses and seminars to your friends and into other cultures. Everything works!


A Sunday Morning at Dr. Yonggi Cho's Church: The World’s Largest
Since I was not teaching on Sunday morning (I taught on Sunday afternoon and evening), Patti and I were able to attend the 11:00 AM Sunday morning service at Yoido Full Gospel Church in Seoul, Korea. This is the church where Dr. Paul Yonggi Cho is the senior pastor. It has seven services on Sunday which are simulcast to 17 different locations. We were at the main sanctuary which seats 11,000 people.

The 11,000 from the 9:00 AM service streamed out through the back doors, while 11,000 new worshippers streamed in through the front doors of the sanctuary. It all happened in 10 minutes. Worship began at 20 minutes before 11:00. The service went from 11:00 – 12:30 and not a soul left their seats during the entire time. We were in a balcony where there were headphones, and we dialed to English, which was one of eight languages the service was being translated into.

Statistics: 750,000 members, 500 pastors, 500 districts and 100,000 elders and deacons. At any point in time, 10,000 people are at Prayer Mountain engaged in prayer. Cho publishes a newspaper which is the 5th largest newspaper in Korea.

We observed a 200-300 member choir accompanied by a full professional orchestra, and a huge pipe organ. Cameras, some on robotic arms, taped the entire service. PowerPoint displays were present throughout the service. A handout of the day’s sermon notes was distributed along with the church bulletin. Ours was in English.

Dr. Cho (age 70) preached powerfully and extemporaneously on “The Third Heaven, Heaven in Our Heart.” It was an inspiring sermon of the kingdom and power of God which IS resident within us to heal the sick, cast out demons and remove spiritual and physical poverty. He had everyone lay their hands on their hearts and pray for physical healing and to cast out demons. Cho led people in several confessions as he preached. In addition to healing and deliverance, Cho’s church cultivates millionaires. He currently has between 50 and 100 millionaires as members in his church.

We sang together the Lord’s Prayer and recited together the Apostles’ Creed. The worship was fully professional and heartfelt. Communion was served (in less than 10 minutes), and the singing which occurred during communion caused the Holy Spirit to fall. You could see tears streaming down people’s faces.

For Patti and me, it was a very memorable experience. Dr. Cho has had a profound impact on our lives. Many years ago he taught us through his book The Fourth Dimension that “pictures are the language of the heart.” Much of our ministry has come out of applying that understanding to various areas of our lives – healing, deliverance, communion with God, divine creativity, and fulfilling our destinies. So we are personally deeply indebted to Dr. Cho, and it was an honor to attend a service at the largest church in the history of the world, and to sense a bit of what makes it tick. Lord, may many others follow in his footsteps.
