Testimonies



I have completed my first year at TGPSM and can't wait to finish what I have started. During my first year I have really enjoyed learning my identity and authority in Christ, as well as, what it means and how it looks to walk out The Great Commission. I have also gained more confidence in stepping out and knowing when I have heard from the Lord. As a bonus, I have made some very close friendships to encourage and walk out together what we have learned.

I have learned so much about God and who I am to God.  We were taught everything from the basic foundations of our faith, to healing and deliverance.  It was an amazing experience.

The TGP School of Ministry has allowed me to grow in the knowledge of God's word. With the in-depth study of each topic taught, the instructors provided us the tools needed to take the next step in ministry, and we were encouraged to use them. In addition, the instructor's knowledge and support during the semester gave each of us any encouragement needed with a topic that might have been challenging. Also, enrolling in online or in-person classes opens up the opportunity for more individuals to attend and grow through the process.

TGPSM has been on of the best things I have done to strengthen what God was already doing on the inside of me. From the first teaching to the last, I saw amazing new truths to carry with me into the Kingdom each and everyday. I was challenged in ways that will forever make an impact on how I love people well, use my gifts to their maximum capacity, and be comfortable with how God created me. If you are considering being a part of this program, you won’t regret it.

TGPSM is truly a gift from the Lord! I’ve been stretched and challenged through the teachings. I’ve loved every homework assignment. Each assignment helped me press into the Lord to get His thoughts and perspective. God is actively demolishing misinterpretations of Scripture and rooting and grounding me in His truth. Ohh - and each truth nugget received has being implemented immediately. I’m so glad I listened to the Lord’s nudging to be a part of TGPSM! It’s life changing. Highly highly recommended.

TGPSM has provided me with the necessary foundational understanding of what it truly means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. To know it in words is completely different than to understand it in heart and truth, through practical application. The lectures have gone deeper than a Sunday sermon could - and as a person who identifies with being a student, this school-like focus helped me to understand pieces of my faith that had previously been cloudy and shallow. The Breakout groups gave me the opportunity to explore the concepts that were presented and share in being encouraged and refined by others and their valuable perspectives. Through TGPSM, I have experienced my faith develop more rapidly than any other time in my faith journey. He used fires in my life to refine my heart and mind through the context of my ministry school classes and reflection papers. He has provided fellowship and guidance through the school that served to uphold me in times of trial and provide the direction I needed weekly. God is timely in that I would show up to class to find we were diving deep into a concept or topic that He was simultaneously personally addressing with me in my quiet time. He grew me through this school, in more ways than I can articulate. I’m so thankful for the work of ministry God is doing through the provision of TGPSM.

The teaching on blood covenant at the beginning of the 2nd year forever changed the way I approach God. Through that teaching, I reached a new level of identity and confidence in who I am and what's available to me.

My life is changed forever because of TGPSM. The in depth of the teachings have completely shifted my mindset from “why on earth am I here“ to “what’s next God, what is my next assignment?”. I was in an ‘identity crisis’, so fearful in many different ways, I was in a self made prison, hiding behind a barrier of fear that restricted me from opening my mouth when I should. When all along God created me to pour out His love & compassion to others. He created me to be simplistic for Him to others when others want to see Him as complicated. The very first night of school, one of the first statements spoken by Pastor Matt was, “the opposite of a child of God is a fearful slave!”  That broke something off of me and I’ve never been the same since! 

That day a hunger for my kingdom-identity transformation began. I’m not afraid to pray for others when they need it or speak words of encouragement or show compassion to others like before. I’m stronger in all areas of ministry where God has placed me. I’m a disciple who is called to make disciples. God did it and used TGPSM to do it!! Praise the Lord Jesus!!
