I have been very blessed by the GGS family. I have found that the teachings speak not only to my academic hunger, but to my insatiable desire to explore the infinite Love of God. The amazing thing about the faculty is their ability to expose and challenge hidden doctrines that I didn’t even know were there. Through the freedom of self discovery, we as students have been shown the importance of boldly standing before the Divine Teacher, with an open willingness to experience Real Truth. The added benefit of this seminary is the student body. They have contributed so much wisdom, love, and critical thought in this process. They have been so instrumental to all that I am learning. It is inspirational and motivational to be surrounded by so many spiritual adventurers.

All revelation is His and He revealed some truth to me that none of my circle of ministry friends agreed with. Although I am a student of the Word and well able to study the text, I am not a theologian. This left me with new beliefs that resonate richly within, but which I was unable to defend systematically. I have multiple secular degrees, but am not great at self-study. I was dry and needing something to help satisfy my hunger and it needed structure. I found Global Grace Seminary from FB posts. I still am not sure how I found them on FB. Could He have orchestrated it so wonderfully? I attended the first conference with my ministry friends and although I was well encouraged, they struggled and it was a difficult time for our group. I met with Dr. Cockerham and discussed the program. My parents had recently died and I received an inheritance which allowed me to enroll (beauty from ashes). One of the first lectures was No Sin Consciousness, something God had revealed to me. Heb 10. The High Priest HAD come that offered the sacrifice capable of removing sin, all sin, forever. There is, for us, no more sin consciousness. The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil had been uprooted and we now get to live with no consciousness of sin. To hear teaching on the very topic I was passionate about as I began the coursework, confirmed to me that I was in the right place. Since, my box is shaken often, more revelation is confirmed and one day soon I may be able to well-defend my beliefs.

I’ve been a student since January (2017) & have really been impacted with the goodness and kindness and self-emptying love of God toward mankind. This is what came to mind first (when asked about the seminary) but there is so much more I have learned. GGS is such a blessing!

The Father introduced me to GGS in my search for a more complete understanding of the pure gospel of grace. I had begun to recognize that the questions I had had all of my life were actually inspired, legitimate and directional in my search for truth. Questions as simple as: Why do I need to ask the Holy Spirit to come into my heart every morning? – I didn’t ask him to leave when I went to sleep! Questions as complex as: Why do I feel so “less than” as a woman in the church when God created both Adam and Eve in his image and likeness and gave them (together) the instructions to govern, reign and have dominion of the earth? (I’m learning that the secret to getting the right answers is to ask the right questions) GGS speaks to my questions and does it in a positive, affirming and graceful manner without the pressure-filled, shame-based approach that I have been so accustomed to all my life. For this I praise God and am so very thankful to these wonderful instructors! The glorious gospel is way better than I ever dared to dream and I am so blessed to have this opportunity to learn and grow in my understanding and articulation so as to be able to share it with others in the same confident and gracious manner it is being shared with me. Cheers to all of you at GGS for making this possible.

My paradigm shift has not been so much of a what, but rather a who! GGS has given me a community of support and encouragement. For quite a while I thought I was an ‘inclusive outsider’ sitting inside the ‘exclusive church’. Now I have an ‘inclusive choir’ that is preaching to me what my soul has known for years!

Just been more of a confirmation to this point that I have heard His voice clearly all along since I met Him.

I cannot stress enough how important, necessary, and life-giving the education from GGS is. If you are contemplating where to continue your faith journey and education, look no further. GGS is not just head knowledge and revelation - it is truly family. Every class, assignment, and book is thought provoking and empowering. You will graduate as an entirely different person. If you want to know the Father's Heart towards you - enroll today. It may be the best decision of your life."

Before discovering GGS, my faith journey was marked by endless striving for God's favor, filled with uncertainty and inconsistency. GGS changed everything. They revealed that Christ's finished work on the cross wasn't just a distant promise but a present reality. It wasn't merely about what Jesus did for me, but as me. Through GGS's courses, I learned to rest in the completed work and embrace the truth that everything the Father has is already mine. GGS not only changed my life but transformed my family's as well. Enrolling in GGS was the best decision I ever made. Many who still struggle with striving wonder why resting in grace seems so effortless in my life. I have one answer for them—GGS!

I cannot say enough good things about GGS. The theological education here is the best! If you’re looking for a finished work, pure grace teaching that is truly Trinitarian from start to finish, then GGS can provide that for you. I know there are many options for a Seminary degree out in the world today but for me it was a no-brainer because I know I am going to get an education that truly aligns with my beliefs. I am truly grateful that GGS exists today. GGS has changed my life and I have no doubt in my mind it will for you as well!

My undergraduate work followed the path of how I was raised in the Wesleyan-Arminian tradition. I was always searching for the key that would unlock the door to perfect living. I could be found in the college library, reading several books a week on top of my normal coursework. The key that I was searching for was forever elusive. It was not until about ten years into the ministry that I came across a little book on grace. It revolutionized everything that I knew about God. I would never be the same again. Determined to get my Master’s and Doctorate in Theology, I struggled to find a school that fit with what I knew to be true. The schools that I went to required me to write papers and answer questions that I did not agree with. My heart was not fully in it and I began to question whether it was worth finishing. I then stumbled upon Global Grace Seminary. After beginning in the program, it was a breath of fresh air. I have grown tremendously in my knowledge of the grace of God. The teachings have challenged me and I draw from them continuously in my role as a staff Chaplain in the hospital. I would recommend this school to anyone who desires to grow in grace and have the essential tools for their ministry.
