Christian Leadership University has been such a blessing to me and my family. I have learned to discern Gods voice better and built up a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit. The unique content and teaching style, made me feel more secure and confident in my own ministry. I loved the various courses and flexibility, which is great for those who still have busy jobs on the side. I can highly recommend CLU.
Very exceptional school. The instructors are very understanding and helpful. I love the teaching because everything is simple to grasp.
I Thank the Lord for CLU by Matamua The Lord led me to study at Christian Leadership University (CLU) where I graduated with a doctorate degree in February 2022, three months after I turned 60. Studying for a doctorate while at the same time working in the Ministry was not easy. But it turned out that my supervisor, Professor Flavien Williams not only backed me with his prayers but also was very quick in assessing and giving feedbacks for my work – I had to response to such a supervisory proficiency, motivating me along; talking with the professor online gave me great helps. My spiritual journey have been greatly enriched by the Lord through studying at CLU, and further helping me continue ministering in Samoa for the glory of God the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. I thank the Lord for CLU.
Currently I am a doctoral student at Christian Leadership University. I am in my first year of my degree. This university was recommended to be by a good friend I am grateful to God that He has led me here. I searched many Universities before but in the last four months of being here I have learnt so much. At present, I am enrolled in the course Communion with God, being taught by Dr. Virkler and it has revolutionized my life. In addition, my instructor, Dr. Flavien Williams has been a tower of strength and encouragement. He ensures that I keep on track and that I am encouraged to finish strong. I will encourage everyone, this is the place to be for Spirit-led, transformational advancement of what God has called you to. Pastor Peter Felix
Deeper Relationship With God: Logos and Rhema Truly Revealed: Studying at CLU has been a Godly journey. I am a leader at my local church. Studying at CLU has opened my eyes and the more I got deeper into my study at the university, the more I hunger and thirst to know God; not just to know about God. At CLU, you go deeper into Scripture where logos and rhema come into full picture in you as a child of God, not a church leader. The professors are supportive and the university also has a financial plan that supports students. Dr. Flavien Williams has been very supportive to me through most of the courses I’ve taken so far. Materials are amazing, course designs are geared towards relationship with God. I’m happy I’m completing my doctoral Spirit guided study here 🙏 Okema. From Canada.
I felt the call of God on my life to be an intercessor and to be able to affectively intercede on behalf of others. I engaged in an intercessory Prayer Course that began my enlightenment in how to pray. It was at the completion of this course of study that my supervisor sent me a congratulatory card and inserted the information on “The Four Keys to Hearing Gods Voice”. In my enthusiasm to hear Gods voice, I enrolled in the course of Study which led me to receiving a Doctor of intercession. While studying, I engaged in reflecting on my life and the areas that the Holy Spirit wanted me to address. Of great importance to me was the “Prayers That Heal the Heart” and “Breaking Soul Ties”- information that I now share with others in small group meetings. I recommend studying at the Christian Leadership University (CLU) as the course work causes you to grow in your spiritual life once you adhere to the biblical instructions. The course supervisor was very instrumental in guiding me, praying with me and praying for me as I journeyed through the course work. Serene Carter-Davis
11th January 2023. *CLU - FAR BEYOND STUDY.* Mark and Team I salute you 👏. I am Mastering in Divine Healing with CLU. The courses I have done so far are beyond study, rather they are transforming and interactive. I am now Christ Centred and this has been imparted to my brethren in Christ. I am equipped to commune with God effectively and efficiently. CLU is far more than an Academic Institution but a partner in my Christian Walk. My country Zimbabwe is benefiting from CLU programs. Thanks to Dr Flavien and all CLU staff for their unmatched and invaluable support. God bless you.
CLU is an excellent place where you can be equipped to serve as a Transformational Servant Leader. I completed my Doctor of Ministry program 3 years ago. All the courses that I took were Christ-centered, stimulating, informative, and resourceful and life changing. The Holy Spirit led me through the entire process. My course materials were provided to me at available costs and I enjoyed the flexibility of studying from home, anywhere, and anytime convenient for me. My instructor and also spiritual advisor, Dr. F. Williams evaluated, counseled, prayed and gave guidance though my program. The CLU administrative staff demonstrated care, deep commitment to their work and provided excellent service. My experience at CLU was very transformative, some of my key learnings include: 1. How to develop an intimate relationship with God given in CLU prerequisite Graduate course REN503 – “Communion with God” - recognizing, receiving, interpreting God’s voice, and applying His revealed Rhema words in our walk with the Lord. 2. COU203 – “Cornerstones of Communication “I found it very stimulating, in particular, I learned (a) negotiation skills that are integral to every strong leader and these skills can be applied to various aspects of life (b) Relying on the Holy Spirit to use us to see the inner needs, desires, and goals of those we relate to and allowing Him to meet those needs through us (c) Synergic collaboration – allowing the Holy Spirit who is at work in us to use the gifts in the Body of Christ, according to the grace given to each of us, for the benefit of those we negotiate with. 3. BUS201 “Business is Ministry”- I gained a Biblical understanding of how the Holy Spirit wants to anoint members of the Body of Christ to influence the marketplace and change the world. For the Holy Spirit is at work in us restoring the people of God to experience a more vital spiritual life so we can “illuminate” and “salt” every area of the marketplace - in business, education, government, medical, media, etc. I thank God for Dr. Mark Virkler and the entire staff of CLU for providing a platform for equipping the Body of Christ in "diverse" ways in order to be able to contribute in various types of “workmanships” toward the advancement of the Kingdom of God.

Deep, expository & insightful learning and experience. Materials & contents stimulate deep thinking, contemplate and meditation. it have a strong balance of scholarly understanding and with keen sensitivity to the works of the Spirit. Guidance from mentor helpful and encouraging. With availability of technology, CLU can consider greater use video conference formatted lectures which there was nothing of in my course of studies. The other aspect to consider is to create opportunities for students to students interaction. A very rich and good experience, overall.
Christian Leadership University is a school like no other. The knowledge and I gained is insurmountable. I received a Master of Prophetic Ministry and currently pursuing my Doctorate. If you are looking for a university that is Sprit taught then CLU is the place to attend.
I joined CLU with a goal of gaining knowledge and skills for Christian Counselling but I have received much more. The courses offered are highly practical and the journaling exercises very revealing to the individual. Going through the modules, I have not just gained skills but have been literally counselled by God. Learning to hearing God speak to me in given situations and taking time to invite Jesus to different memories of my life has given me a new perspective of a victorious life in Christ, one which is continuous and life changing. Of all courses I have undertaken, CLU modules have been most rewarding. The courses are not just intellectual but life impacting, there is no way one can take the modules and remain the same. The course instructor has been highly supportive and his spiritual guidance invaluable. Having this counsel and support being provided almost on a real-time basis has strengthened the learning . I whole heartedly recommend CLU to any individual interested in pursuing a tangible impact in their personal walk of faith.
I am so glad that I was led to CLU. After completing a master's degree in psychology, I became aware that something else was needed. I needed to add God in order to bring true healing to someone. Christian Leadership University has opened my eyes in ways that you will not believe. From the first book that you open, you will be able to hear God's voice as you apply the four keys. You will truly be amazed at how much your life will change.
Hey Mark, I just wanted to let you know how wonderful your recommendation to me for the class titled "Naturally Supernatural." I am thouroughly enjoying it as well as all my interactions with your outstanding CLU staff Karen and Tammy! I also have enjoyed working with Flavien Williams and Patty Sadallah my professors. Keep up the high calling on this ministry of discipling nations! In Love with Jesus! Charlie B. Grad. Student from Bakersfield, CA
Hearing God’s voice is a complete game changer in the Christian life. Each lesson at CLU includes a journaling conversation with God. Having God involved in the education process is transformative. Each course for my Doctor of Ministry program changed my life. I previously started two other Doctor of Ministry programs at traditional seminaries. I dropped out of both programs realizing early on they were head knowledge only programs. CLU will partner with God to fill your head and your heart with a transformative experience. You need to enroll at CLU today!!!
I was challenged to adopt a life of personal and educational study. I work for many hours a day. It improved my walk with Christ. I totally enjoyed the mentorship and the experience. It came at the most difficult professional time in my career. It gave me a spiritual life that I had not felt since my days in the Chaplaincy. I am able to use what I learned on a daily basis.
The courses of CLU are really life, everyone needs to experience within. Personally CLU courses lead me to use well this: " I always do what God ask me to do." And " God always does what I ask Him to do." I depend totally to his will, means my indendent living died ( out of self). And turned to dependent living ( out of the Holy Spirit)
Initially, my main objective was to take a training course to acquire new skills, a new diploma. But as I progressed through the course, I felt transformed by the knowledge I gained. The Bible says that you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. As time went on, I felt free and liberated by the biblical truth gained through the course. My words were transformed by the knowledge to the point where even those closest to me noticed a radical change in my life. I could fearlessly and confidently speak out in church and address certain issues and thus contribute at my level to the advancement of the body of Christ. I really thank Dr Mark Virkler for this university and my mentor Dr Flavien William for his prayerful and unwavering support. May the Lord our God continue to bless this beautiful initiative.

The course REN 503. In the most practical manner, backed by tangible results, with even a money back guarantee, teaches how to hear the voice of God. It is incredible and everyone - beginner or experienced Minister can benefit and learn hear God's voice and communicate with Him.
This is really a best place for studying Bible. If you want to study theology. They have really good materials and it will help you to grow more in relationship with God. Not to know about Him, but to know Him personally. Hearing God's voice subjet is so easy to understand and it was great blessing for my life personally. And faculties are also so good and co-operative.
Efficient and one-time. Reasonable cost. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed he courses. Powerful.
