Some comments from past participants in the course:
  • "My experience was stellar.  I never took an online class before, but the instructor made it easy to do so. (Incidentally, I was traveling cross-country during the span of the class and communicated via wi-fi stops.)  Feedback on my writing was  firm and thorough – wrought with spiritual teaching, not critical or condescending. It was a memorable, positive experience that blessed me and elevated my ability to use a God-given gift more fully."                                                                  
  • "I think the most helpful component of the course was the emphasis on sound doctrine and the differentiation between law and gospel.  This is truly the heart of theologically sound devotions.  Your style can vary a great deal from the other writers but the theology will be sound and therefore the devotion will be a blessing to others."
