Past Students Said…
“What a great way to expand your Christian Family and share the anticipation of Advent with them. Don’t be intimidated by something you may think is technically too difficult…you will be amazed at how quickly you pick up the process and get so absorbed in the subject and your fellow pilgrims I am really enjoying the thoughts that others are sharing.”
“This class has been helping to keep me focused on what is important and will be a big help for me this Christmas.”
“The book has been fabulous – lots of things to ponder and truths to absorb. The power points allow quick thoughts to get the mind thinking.”
“The online sharing is amazing! I’m still new to all this blogging stuff, but I couldn’t believe all the talking going on. It helps you to see that you’re not the only person going through things/thinking one direction or the other.”
