Online Ministerial Training
AIGCC Online Ministerial Training Program
I am pleased and excited that you decided to take a closer look at the 'AIGCC Online Christian Ministerial Training Program'. AIGCC(Abounding In Grace Christiang Church) is a Christian podcast operating out of Durham, NC in USA; with focus on helping listeners understand God's processes and discover thier individual calling.
I set the 'AIGCC Online Christian Ministerial Training Program' up after returning from my 2023 India missions trip. My goal is to use this training program to train Christian ministers/teachers around the world(male and female), giving them a solid foundation in the Word of God and the processes that God uses to communicate with, build up and equip each believer.
So, what is the 'AIGCC Online Ministerial Training Program'. For this program I am simply using the 5 yrs of lessons that I taught at AIGCC in Durham NC from 2012 through 2017. Although I did not know it, these 5 yrs of preaching at AIGCC was God giving me minister training material, one title at a time. And I did not have a clue. I though I was just getting lesson titles and preaching lessons that my congregation needed. But what was actually happening is that God was putting His strategic plan in motion. I encompassed all that I had learned from all of my church experiences and the ENLI(Every Nation Leadership Institute) divinity training that I received into my lessons/sermons.
So then, why don't I start from the beginning. I got saved in Aug 1995. On the night that I got saved I had an open vision, and in it I saw the earth (as it would look to an astronaut looking at earth from space). And God said 'that is your pulpit'. My thought was why would I need a pulpit. I'm not a preacher and DO NOT want to be a preacher. So I kind of went the Jonah route with this one. Long story short, in March 2012 Abounding In Grace Christian Church (AIGCC) launched and there was nothing I loved more than preaching (God knew, I just had to catch up).
Fast forward to Dec 2017, I closed AIGCC due to lack of funds (we just never grew). The night after shutting down the church and putting all of the equipment in storage, God reminded me of my open vision (the world is your pulpit). I knew then that AIGCC would never again be within 4 walls. AIGCC did not close. Rather it's time within 4 walls had ended. The next month I gave away all of the stored equipment to a church that was just starting up.
By the time I closed the AIGCC church building in Dec 2017, my podcast on the AIGCC web page (under the 'Listen To A Sermon' tab at http://www.aboundingingrace.org/) had been visited by 83 countries and 39 of the US states plus Washington DC. Thus, I knew that I had to continue the podcast. To date the AIGCC podcast has been visited by 132 countries(46 of the 50 US states and the territory of Washington DC) and numerous cities in each of these countries.
Per God, I have to travel everywhere that my voice has been. However God has given me much more than I could possibly deliver in a single visit to believers around the world. Thus I will use this training program to pass on my knowledge to believers around the world. I will pass on the knowledge that was hand picked by God (the before mentioned 5 yrs of sermons that I preached at AIGCC from 2012 to 2017).
So, this is how it will work. I will send participants sermons from the training program(the 5yrs of sermons one topic group at a time). I will send the audio, printed text and Power Point presentation for each sermon (not all sermons have a Power Point presentation). Then I will check in via WhatsApp call/video-conference for the duration of the training (until every sermon is done) to insure that the trainees are learning what was intended. During and after the training, I will be available if I'm ever needed. However, once the traing is done, God will take it from there as He does with all of His ministers of the gospel. But, I will have passed to the participants over 50 years of knowledge and life experiences via these sermons that were hand picked and given by God for this purpose.
This is my calling, my life's work. And I shall likely do this the rest of my life.
