Courses and Dates that forms part of this cycle

EXPLORE A1 –  The Abundant Christian Life            26-27 May 2023  
We are born with questions about life etched in our hearts and this course seeks to answer these questions from a biblical perspective. We will look at how mankind got into such a mess and God’s amazing rescue plan – how God not only wants to save us but also wants to heal us and set us on the right course for our lives.

EXPLORE A2 –  Deeper Intimacy with God                23-24 June 2023
This course is all about helping us come to know more of God and connect to Him in a deeper way. It will look at His character and nature and explore how we can have an intimate relationship with Him and seek to deal with the blockages that get in the way of knowing Him the way He really is.

EXPLORE A3 –  The Power of Forgiveness                28-29 July 2023
The Kingdom principle of forgiveness is one which has a profound impact on our lives. As we both receive God’s forgiveness for our own sinful actions and also extend forgiveness to those who have hurt us, we begin to experience God’s transformation and healing. This course will explore the truth, challenges and steps to freedom through forgiveness.

EXPLORE A4 –  Overcoming Rejection and Betrayal      25-26 August 2023
Even though the Bible tells us that God loves all He has created, and that when we accept Jesus as our Saviour we are fully part of God’s family again, we can still find it so hard to believe. This course will explore how rejection came into the world, how it can impact our lives and how to move on from rejection to acceptance.

EXPLORE A5 –  Exposing the Snares of the Enemy 1      29-30 Sept 2023
In this course we will explore what the Bible says about Satan and the demonic, spiritual warfare and how the enemy can gain a stronghold in a person’s life. Jesus came to set the captives free and this course teaches how to step into the spiritual freedom through deliverance in Jesus’ name.

EXPLORE A6 –  Healing from Inner Hurt and Pain           27-28 October 2023
In this course we will investigate how God made each person and how the various parts of our being work together to develop the whole person-hood. This course will explain both how to untangle some of the causes and effects of inner damage and how to apply God’s truth and restorative power into the lives of those who need inner healing.

EXPLORE A7 – Overcoming Fear And Anxiety                24-25 November 2023

This course will share how the Lord longs to show us the freedom that is in Him when we can learn to fully trust Him and bring the worries of our heart to Him. There will be teaching on steps to finding freedom in Jesus’ name and opportunity for prayer ministry.

EXPLORE A8 – Restoring the Human Spirit                    26-27 January 2024 (Subject to possible change)
This course takes a deeper look into the functions of the human spirit. Exploring the scriptures, we will discover how the human spirit can be affected by the issues of our past, and affect our life today.

EXPLORE A9 – Navigating Difficult Relationships        23-24 February 2024 (Subject to possible change)
When God made us in His image, He made us relational human beings, created to live in dynamic relationship with both Himself as well as one another.
