Spiritual Formation – Christian CHARACTER Education

Spiritual formation is the core of what we teach at Christian Leadership University.  Every Christian can and should know how to hear the voice of God and how to act on what you hear.  We feel that this is the most effective way to teach, help Christians to grow in their faith, and train effective Christian leaders.  One of the reasons spiritual formation is so effective is because is builds and strengthens Christian Character.  Christian Character education begins by hearing the word of God and acting upon it.  We have examples of great leaders in the Bible who did this.  Jesus said, “I do only what I hear my Father speaking and what I see my Father doing.”  Moses and Paul are other great leaders who heard from God and acted on it.  So how does knowing this improve our Christian character? Allowing Christ to be Formed in You First, it s allowing Christ to be formed within you. We know that Paul prayed that Christ would be formed in us and that we would be found in Christ.
