Student Reviews

All of the lessons were very easy to understand and practical, I really appreciate the “real life” counseling conversations to give an idea of how concepts would work between two people in an actual session. This is an incredible program and will be telling others!!!

I am finding this curriculum to be very helpful in my current role supporting others and hope to continue to learn and grow so that I can be better at it.

I really enjoyed this unit of work. Mainly due to the variety of speakers each chosen I assume ffrom their chosen field of work to deliver the content. Also the touch of interviewing guest speakers to lend their personal insight. This demonstrated that theology is a complex study and requires many experts with different insight to deliver within their area of knowledge. I also particularly like the sessions that related it to our everyday lives as Christians like talking to non-christians and when our prayers aren’t answered. Thanks so much!

the Assignments is not covered off in the videos accurately or deeply enough. the unit barely touches on the subject matter and i feel only brushes the surface of biblical narrative.

I have mixed feelings about this unit. Some books I enjoyed learning more about the Old Testament and other’s not so much. I suppose I am really a New Testament person.

Having completed the module “Theology of Humanity” it’s exciting and waiting to commence the next module “Ministry in the Spirit”. My understanding and knowledge about the things of God is daily increasing. It seems like there’s never ending of learning of the scriptures which is inspiring and transforming my life in every aspect. What we learn here is truly preparing us to share the Word with non-believers more effectively.

There were two topics in which I was elvated to another level of understanding in the more practical sense. The topics were “Suffering & Forgiveness” and “Women in Ministry”. I thank God and Axx Bible College Team for your time and effort committed and for this opportunity you have given us.

My perspective of biblical verses, ideologies and beliefs has changed and is slowly transforming as i delve deeper into the word.

The course was very informative on the church and creation which I like

Yes the church should accept and love any person from different ethnic backgrounds

The presenter was clear and we were able to understand the whole section easily

I am so delighted to have learnt the subject “Theology of Humanity” which consists of various important topics. In the process of learning the very important topic of “Suffering & Forgiveness” I was elevated to another level of understanding what true forgiveness is. While Jesus has already accomplished His mission on the cross there is no need for us to hold grudges against any human being but to ignore their weaknesses and love them as Christ loves you. This topic has touched my heart and soul and is well understood and waiting for me to have any opportunity to minister to people in this area.

The other question I always had was about “Women in Ministry”. After having leaned about this topic my perception is now completely changed. I am very blessed to have this opportunity and thanking the Lord for giving me the desire, courage and wisdom to follow this Bible course.

Highly practical in providing effective tools for self evaluation and enabling performance driven goals to be successful.

very interesting to see all subjects from different view points as opposed to one dimensional view.

I have been trying to do this with God in my walk this year to develop in this area, I ask God to show me who he wants me to minister to today or send someone who needs to hear from you. Quite often He doe’s and it has been happening in various ways. I have been excited to explore this in more detail as I fundamentally think it will help in my daily walk with doing God’s will, but for personal growth and development as well as expanding my ability to outreach to many. Thank you for your ability to share about purposing / activating this in study and teaching format.

This course really pointed out to me the type of listener that I’ve been in the past and how I can become better. I was always the one that was an analyst as well as an interrupted. I was always thinking of what I wS going to say in return and how I could fix them instead of really being engaged and listening to what was being said .By asking questions about their feelings really helped me to be a better listener

The video was excellent in posting this out

I really enjoy the Art of Listening. l find it joy and loving. Just sitting down and listening to people during a funreal services or someone going through health issues or illness, Just giving myself to listening, it gives hope to someone and they can open up because we not open but listening to them.

Scripture talks alot about listening and God most of the times, trying to get the message to His people but, people hear but never listen and ended up in disaster, or hands of the enemies, because people hear but not listening.

I experence alot back in Papua New Guinea, where we havea death, or someone is going through health issues or you attended to customary obligions, and through those experiences l learn a lot by being there and listen to those stories. and l realise that, once we begings to seat with them and listen to their stories or ask two or three open end questions like what happens or how can we help sort out this, or how can l help, what can l do for you, they will pour their hearts out. Listening can heal or make a lot of different in their lives as well.

It was good to complete lessons that looks at how the church fits in with some of the real world issues around race, gender and the environment

Working through the Biblical Narrative is bringing my faith to another level. My understanding of the Old Testament has never been easy, but I am beginning to get a handle on the narrative. Matt’s knowledge is excellent and he explains things in a succinct and interesting way. I love how the Old and New Testaments compliment each other and bring the stories and truths to life.

The counseling was very good. I learnt a lot of new things that I can certainly apply in the future.

I found part 2 challenging and confronting. I enjoyed learning about effective teamwork and communication. Conflict management was detailed and thorough, with a biblical lens. Mentoring and coaching and discipleship was well informed. Fantastic lectures, jam packed with gems and gold nuggets. Well done!

After completing Part 1, I felt the Holy Spirit guide me into a solution to solve my plan dilemma. I have learnt in this series that if you submit your plans to the Lord, He will direct your path. He does not waste anything and if we first seek Him (God) and His righteousness and Kingdom, all things will be added unto you. Thank you!

Life has become busy with having a disabled son that my reading and studying the word got put off. Since doing the courses my focus and thoughts are more on the word of God .

This unit has helped reassure and confirm what I am already doing for God and is helped me to grow in being more effective in group ministry

This is jam packed with good stuff!

I have learnt in this teaching:

Planning

How to build and work towards a God given purpose, destiny, future, goal, vision, and mission, but most importantly, how to execute this mission, with others and as part of a God given team!…I thoroughly found this session useful in helping me to identify my Godly purpose and mission on earth, thank you!

This course was very informative. Very good overall.

I was able to have a more clear and deep understanding of God and the Trinity in both the Old and New Testament

Also scripture given to understand this concept will be very valuable to me when I am asked questions about the Trinity

Simply mind boggling, havent heard anything new in the lessons, things I have heard and read all my life since I have been a child.

So what’s new you ask? Revelation! I knew the words, I knew the references to some as well, and many verses I could finish by heart, what was really lacking was the revelation of what the spirit of God was really revealing to me at that point of time in my life, in my walk and on my journey.

My perspective, revelation and most importantly my reverence for the triune God has deepened, do i get it all? Absolutely not but on a far better footing than before i did the course.

This is a great reminder of things I have learnt over the years in serving and in ministry,

I personally think that the consistent emphasis on embracing the broader context of Biblical passages is particularly helpful in this unit. This is very helpful especially in Africa where most of the time, text overwrites context in sermons and even bible studies. Great unit for a good solid foundation in Scriptural studies and interpretation approaches.

The Church is bride of Christ, waiting for his second coming. While waiting, the Church should be commited in teaching out the world with Gospel of the Kingdom. Both leaders and members of the Church should be mission minded. The Church is built and strenghtened by edification, and motivated by soul winning, and prepared for the the great encounter with the Lord. As a part of the Church, I should concentrate on these three fold Principles.

May God bless the lecturer and the Axx Bible College staff.

This course has been more than an academic journey. It has been a life transforming journey. I am feeling like God placed AXX providentially. I feel ready to serve with humility and commitment. May God help me.

Longevity in Ministry is a result of taking a humble posture and communication with trustful people about our true self.

It’s a very informative course, I enjoyed it, hopefully you will enjoy it too.

Axx has been an incredible blessing in my life. The teachings have profoundly impacted and imparted me, giving me clarity and depth of understanding, leading to significant positive shifts in my perspective. It’s more than just teaching; it’s a transformative experience. Thanks very plenty

Sir, I say God bless Axx Bible College in Jesus name. Amen. Sir, I learnt that the gospel could be defined as the proclamation that Jesus is YHWH incarnate, King of the world, liberator of God’s people and bringer of peace. Sir, I also learnt that atonement means to be reconciled to God because our sins have been dealt with and we are forgiven. Sir, l further learnt that the effectiveness of our sermons as preachers of God’s Word are dependent on two factors : what we say and how we say it. In order of significance the ingredients making up a sermon are thought, arrangement, language, voice and gesture. In priority of impressions, however, the order reverses. Finally sir, I learnt that when a missionary can plant a church, disciple converts, train a few leaders and one of them to be the pastor then that missionary has ministered effectively cross culturally. Thanks sir.

We are called to face adversity as christians, as it is inevitable. Through adversity our faith can grow as adversity is time for growth, believing God for his help and victory.

I thank God for transforming my life through Axx bible college

Personal ego, position, and self achievement of the greatest obstacle in teams goal and achievement.

In a Christian context, Christian serves Jesus and not their own interest and if Christians continue to serve their own interest, they grief the Holy Spirit

Going through this unit with Amelia Pickering was just super wonderful. I learnt skills that has shaped my ministry better than I thought and it came clearly to me that my ministry isn’t complete if my own management and spiritual life is not in check. Amelia humbly taught me skills to navigate through this process and I am grateful to her and entire team at Axx Global.

I recognized the basic or fundamental truth God (Jesus Christ). Many confusing things about Jesus were made straight to me in this course. Thanks to AXX bible college for this great opportunity

As a Christian/leaders we should not only claim we are filled with the Holy Spirit but we should be led/walk by the Holy Spirit.

I always thought a calling is enough hence no need for study theology. What I can say is, if there is someone think the way I used to think, you better change your mind. I have grown and I teach sound doctrine

Jesus’ Kingdom” refers to the reign or rule of God, as taught and demonstrated by Jesus. It’s a central theme in the Gospels, often described as a present reality and a future hope, characterized by righteousness, peace, and joy. Jesus’ teachings about the kingdom emphasize its transformative power, both individually and collectively, and its implications for how believers live in the world.

God’s Reign:

The kingdom of God is fundamentally about God’s sovereign rule and authority. It’s not a physical territory, but a spiritual reality where God’s will is done.

Present and Future:

Jesus proclaimed that the kingdom of God had already come in his ministry, yet it also has a future consummation. His parables often illustrate this dual aspect.

Transformation:

Entering the kingdom of God requires a radical change of heart and life, turning away from sin and embracing God’s values. This transformation is both an individual experience and a societal impact.

Emphasis on Love and Justice:

The kingdom of God is characterized by love, compassion, and justice, challenging believers to live out these values in their relationships and actions.

Community:

The kingdom is not just an individual experience but also a community of believers who support and encourage one another in their faith.

Contrasting with Earthly Kingdoms:

Jesus’ kingdom contrasts with earthly kingdoms built on power, domination, and self-interest, highlighting the values of humility, service, and self-sacrifice.

In essence, the kingdom of God, as taught by Jesus, is a call to align one’s life with God’s will, experiencing transformation in the present and anticipating its full manifestation in the future, marked by love, justice, and peace.
