Stuck? Three Reasons Why
Are you stuck? Is there an area where you can’t seem to make any progress?
Or perhaps you’re struggling to fully live in the destiny God has planned for you. You are pressing in for more of God in your life and hungry to grow in intimacy with Him, yet something keeps holding you back from experiencing the fullness of God.
The New Year is here and traditionally we spend a few moments making flimsy resolutions on how to improve ourselves in the coming year. However, maybe it's time to get serious about making positive spiritual changes in your life, before you sink completely into the quicksand of life. Continue reading...

An RLI Volunteer's Story
If you've attended an RLI Conference, you may recognize Robin as the helpful face behind the book table. Or you may have met her during Mother's Love Ministry or on Personal Ministry Day. Robin tells her story of how she came to volunteer for RLI and what a positive difference it has made in her life!
The first time I went to an RLI conference was in 2006. I had a dear friend named Michelle whom I knew very well. We would get together once a month to keep in touch. One month I noticed a big change in her - a positive change. I asked her what she had been doing, and she said she had been going to this RLI conference. So, I decided I needed to check it out.

Come Volunteer with Us!
"What is God calling me to do?"
Most of us have asked ourselves this question once or twice! Volunteering with RLI might be the answer! RLI is on the front lines of bringing the Kingdom of God to earth. This is where the rubber meets the road! We specialize in sharing about the extravagant and liberating love of God. We are honored and humbled that God lets us do his work, and we need people like you to join us so that we can continue to share the Good News.

Below are just a few example of how RLI volunteers have found a way to use their unique interests and talents to serve others!
Ken Iding
I am humbled and blessed to be part of the Father's Love Ministry. God does amazing things through this ministry - I get to see walls of unforgiveness broken down, past hurts healed and family relationships restored!
Susan & Chuck Clevenger
We love to work at registration during conferences. It's fun meeting & getting to know our attendees. We see them come in - some beaten down, some skeptical, and some cautiously hopeful. By the end of the week we see smiles, joy and renewed faith!
Danny Williams
There is so much preparation behind the scenes for our conferences. I find joy and purpose in knowing that I support this Kingdom building ministry by printing & binding conference materials and assembling all the other materials needed to make the conference go smoothly.
Lynn Kelsey
I love facilitating personal ministry. It reveals a fuller extent of what Jesus did for each seeker personally to bring them freedom. They become aware in their hearts of his unconditional and immeasurable great love for them, some for the first time in their lives!

For Christine it was unrelenting fear.
For Patricia it was depression.
For Jeff it was addiction to pornography.
For Gary it was chronic back pain.
For Judy it was chemical hypersensitivity.
All of these people found freedom and healing through an RLI conference! Why stay stuck? Come to the next RLI Conference and see what God will do in your life! Schedule & details...
VIDEO: On December 7, 2015, the Greater Cincinnati School of Transformational Ministry class participated in an amazing outreach adventure. We were planning a pizza night and decided to surprise our pizza delivery person with a gift beyond his regular tip. We prayed in advance that God would send the right person. Students pooled together money, gift cards, prophetic words, blessings, art, and other gifts. We were stunned that we had collected over $800 in cash and gift cards! When Abdul, our pizza delivery man arrived, we presented him with the gift and sang a little impromptu song that we created moments before he arrived. You will notice that midway through the video, Adbul, who is a US citizen but originally from West Africa, says he wants to say more but his English is not very good. The language in his native country is French. As only God could plan it, Kathy Croghan, our school director just happens to be a French teacher and put him at ease by translating for him! It was an experience none of us will forget!!!!
RLI's School of Ministry is an awesome place to grow in spiritual strength, intimacy with God, Christ-like character, and Kingdom boldness. Come to GCSTM this quarter!
