Reach
Your Spiritual Goals
with a “Personal Spiritual Trainer”
For $1 a day, you
can have your own spiritual “coach”!
Everyone needs mentoring –
someone who will take time to check in, be a sounding board, make suggestions
and keep you motivated to attain your goals. But modern daily life is busy and
it’s hard to find someone who can make that kind of commitment to you. This
is why Life Coaching has become such a large trend – professional advisors
who make a career of personal, focused attention and guidance. They’re very
effective, but not everyone can afford them.
Now you can have
your own Personal Spiritual Trainer
Communion With God Ministries is
making it possible for anyone who can afford a dollar a day to get the
one-on-one input needed to master an area of spiritual growth, be it Bible
knowledge, walking in the Spirit, leadership skills, finances, prophecy,
parenting, vision and life purpose… whatever area you’re ready to work on
and master, you can have a Personal Spiritual Trainer to see you through to
your goal.
Stay on track with
a trainer
If you wanted to get into good
physical shape, a personal fitness trainer at a health club could give you the
experienced knowledge, objective feedback and encouragement you need to reach
your fitness goals. A Personal Spiritual Trainer under the auspices of
Communion With God Ministries will give you weekly input and personal
attention to keep you on-track and moving forward as you attain your spiritual
goals. Specialized training modules will give you the tools you need to grow
in the area you desire.
Master an area of
growth in just 3 months
We have created a full slate of
specialized training modules (more than 90 of them!) that will give you the
materials and personal input you need to master an area of spiritual growth
– not just “know something about it”, but master it. In just 90
days.
Just think, a year from now you
could have four areas of personal breakthrough established and operating in
your life. In fact, there’s even opportunity to become a Personal Spiritual
Trainer yourself! But let’s talk about you first…
Personalized goals,
personalized attention
You know what you need most, what
inspires you most, what lines up with your overall goals. When you choose from
over 90 Spirit-anointed training modules, you’ll also be assigned a Personal
Spiritual Trainer who will connect with you every week to assist you in
grasping and applying the truths and experiences you are absorbing as you work
through the material. If you can carve out just 50 minutes a day and a weekly
appointment with your Personal Spiritual Trainer – via phone or email, your
choice – you’ll see breakthrough in that area of your life.
Imagine, you’ll reach a milestone
in your spiritual growth every three months!
We are committed to the equipping and growth of
Christians around the world, moving in the flow of the Holy Spirit’s counsel
and life-changing power. So we are making key materials available to believers
for an enrollment that works out to:
Approximately $1 a day, for course
materials (books, student notebook, CDs or DVDs, depending on the
course),
plus the weekly one-on-one encouragement and input of a
Personal Spiritual Trainer for another $1 a day.
For
only $99 for 90 days, you get weekly appointments with your Personal Spiritual
Trainer.
Your total investment is about $189 for 90 days, which
includes powerful, Spirit-anointed training materials.
In only 90
days, you can master an area of personal growth.
(There’s even a 30-day,
money-back guarantee!)
You can enroll today, and step
into mastery in your spiritual walk, with a Personal Spiritual Trainer
alongside to ensure your success.
Call toll-free: 1-800-466-6961 (or 716-681-4896 outside the U.S.) for a free
consultation to discuss your goals and the module best suited to get you
started.
We’ll have your
training materials and the contact information for your Personal Spiritual
Trainer in the mail to you within two business days.
You,
too, can become a Personal Spiritual Trainer
It’s a Kingdom principle: If you
want to keep it, give it away!
When Jesus charged His disciples to make disciples,
He knew they’d be ready to pass on what they’d experienced and learned
from Him. We believe the same for you. As you achieve mastery in each training
module, you can help someone else accomplish the same as their Personal
Spiritual Trainer in that same area.
You’ll be fulfilling
The Great Commission to make
disciples, even as you continue to fuel your own spiritual growth. We’re
on the lookout for Personal Spiritual Trainers, so as you progress in your own
spiritual growth with these training modules, we want to discuss with you the
opportunities to train others.

Nightline Showcases Scientific Study of Speaking in Tongues
By Vicki Mabrey, March 21, 2007, ABC
(Click
here for the full article.)
At the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Andrew Newberg has been conducting a
scientific study of the phenomenon for a long time. According to an ABC
report, Newberg found that brain scans show quite different results with
charismatics praying in tongues compared to Buddhist monks meditating and
Franciscan nuns praying. The frontal lobes—the part of the brain right
behind the forehead that’s considered the brain’s control center—went
quiet in the brains of tongue-speakers.
“When they are actually engaged in this whole very intense spiritual
practice...their frontal lobes tend to go down in activity. It is very
consistent with the kind of experience they have, because they say that they’re
not in charge. [They say] it’s the voice of God, it’s the Spirit of God
that is moving through them,” said Newberg.
“Whatever is coming out of their mouth is not what they are purposefully or
willfully trying to do. And that’s in fairly stark contrast to the people
who are—like the Buddhist and Franciscan nuns—in prayer, because they are
very intensely focused and in those individuals the frontal lobes actually
increase activity.”
Says one participant in the study, Pastor Gerry Stoltzfoos, “I don’t think
faith has anything to be afraid of from science. Science validates faith, so
bring it on, whatever the facts are, bring it on.”
“When you have experienced this, you don’t really care what anybody else
thinks. It is personal in the first place; it is something between you and
God,” said Stoltzfoos. “So we don’t really care if it is validated or
not, but it is fascinating when it is, so that people who have thought we are
crazy can have something to look at and—we are still crazy, we are just not
as crazy as they thought.”

Journaling: God’s Football Camp–
Rev. Steve C. Stutz
“Lord, yesterday was one long experience of frustration from start to end.
This morning it seems to be continuing. What’s up with this?”
“Steve, do you remember football camp? You came out in the August heat
and spent two weeks doing twice a day grass drills. There wasn’t a football
in sight, yet you endured this because you knew the season was quickly
approaching.
“Yesterday I led you through some ‘patience and waiting’ drills to
prepare you for the season! You moved from one setting to another, but each
had the same theme. Towards evening you finally began to ask Me what point I
wanted to pound into your head.
“Yesterday was only a warm up. Yesterday was My love for you becoming
enfleshed in the circumstances of your life—sitting in waiting rooms,
sitting in offices, sitting in traffic, etc. You know, of course, I was
sitting right there with you—just waiting for you to notice Me and let Me
take over.
“Another thing is how you didn’t take your football camp days very
seriously. I remember your plan was to lurk about on the sidelines all season
and do nothing. I had a great big belly laugh when I saw the look on your face
when you heard your name as a starter!
“You played every defensive down from then on, but you were seriously behind
the curve because you hadn’t taken training seriously. In this next season
of your life, the opponent who lines up against you won’t be flesh and
blood. I want you to be preparing in earnest for what will come.
“Yesterday I stretched you a little. You are still a little sore, but you
are stronger now. My point is about flexibility. If you are going to be
present and responsive to Me, you have to be flexible. I blew your schedule
out of the water. When you ask Me what I want you to do, it won’t fit neatly
in your Daytimer. I will make Myself inconvenient for you so that you must
break away from yourself.
“Steve, continue to seek Me and to follow My leading. Do not concern
yourself with what is respectable in the sight of your peers. You are being
transformed by Me and I am really excited about the battles that lay ahead for
you. The best is yet to come. I am with you and I love you. Have a great day
and stay tuned to Me.”

you visited the CWG Forum

Many people have signed up, and there are gradually more posts. But we could
use more! If you want to practice the things you’ve learned about dream
interpretation, come visit and see if there are any dreams waiting to be
interpreted. If you have a cool journal entry that you want to share, either
as encouragement to others or to see if people think it’s the Lord, there’s
a place for that. If you have a prayer request, you can jump in there too. You
can discuss the course you're taking, or talk with others who've already
completed a course you are considering next. We’d love to meet you there!

Doctors Speak Out!
For awhile now we’ve been giving testimonies of the health benefits we
personally have experienced since we started drinking a wonderful new “superfruit”
juice. We’ve also shared the stories of some people that took our advice and
tried it for themselves. I don’t know about you, but to me, a real-life
story of the changes taking place in the health of another individual is
pretty powerful!
But what if you’re looking for something a little different?
Well, there’s a brand new video that just went up online called “Doctors
Speak Out”. It has many different MDs, chiropractors, naturopaths, and
other types of doctors sharing how they have totally integrated this
nutritional superfood into their lives and practices. They believe it is a
cornerstone upon which optimum health can be built, and so they recommend it
to everyone! It’s a short presentation – just six minutes – so if you
are interested you can view
the video here.

they give him $50.”
The second boy says, “That’s nothing. My Dad scribbles a few words on a

The third boy says, “I got you both beat. My Dad scribbles a few words on a
