Identifying the Voice of God
There are many voices in the world. Not all of them speak to your benefit. When God speaks He speaks to encourage and give life. Listening to the wrong voice can be disastrous. In this course we’ll learn how to avoid the pitfalls to correctly discern the voice of God. It all begins with having a right relationship with Him. Arm yourself with the Word of God and daily abide in Him.

Is God Still Talking?
God is still speaking today and He speaks primarily through His Word. In opening the Holy Scripture, you’ll discover the living God revealing Himself and speaking to direct, challenge, warn, comfort, and offer assurance to you through all of life’s circumstances.
God’s Goal in Communicating
In going before God in prayer, we often emphasize our lack rather than His abundance. We shortchange the holy exercise by offering up our own agenda—a request list of wants with no regard for listening to what God wants. Ironically, we position ourselves with a goal to tell God what He already knows. In this course, we’ll explore the better—what God wants to accomplish in speaking to us. His desire addresses our unrealized need to know the truth.
How God Gets Our Attention
A problem exists in that we don’t always walk in a manner pleasing to God. There are distractions galore that seek to lead us down an alluring path to destruction. But God, as our heavenly Father, has several tools to lovingly get our attention to get us back on the right path.
What Determines What I Hear?
Past experiences and present life circumstances have a big impact on how we perceive what we hear. And a personal intimacy with God and knowing His heart for you will make all the difference. In this course we’ll discuss how having a right view of God—governed by a correct understanding and attitude—positively shapes our ability to be confident in what we hear.
How to Listen
Life as the Great Adventure begins when we say yes to God and follow as we hear Him speak. And because God is still speaking, we must keep actively listening. We have a Living Text that tells of many of the faith who did just that and powerful things ensued. In this course, we’ll discuss the importance of having a sure foundation of faith that when God speaks, as active listeners, we will have the proper response.
