Part 1: Balancing Clay

Mission: Renounce the spirit of fear

There is no fear in the Spirit that God has given us. In part one, we will identify some of the things that trigger fear. We will also establish the truth of who God has made us to be as the truth that reigns in us, thus dethroning and renouncing fear in our lives.

Part 2: Be Powerful

Mission: Participate in the spirit of power

God has given us power and authority in Christ. Here we will learn how to participate, practically and actively, by exercising that power in our lives.

Part 3: Intimately Entwined with the Trinity

Mission: Embrace the Royal Title

In the Trinity, we have been given intimate relationships. Through those relationships, weve been given a crown that represents a royal title. Embracing these relationships is crucial to our spiritual victory.

Part 4: The Disciplined Warrior

Mission: Engage in the battle

We must respond to the call God has put on our lives with the authority and power with which He has graced us. Lets put our hands to the work. May Gods purpose for us be lived out to the fullest!
