Stephanie Davis resides in the Peach State known as Georgia. Stephanie gives honor to God who is the head of her life.

Stephanie’s first recollection of joining the church was at the age of 12. She would spend days on end in fellowship. Stephanie also sang in the choir and became a reporter for her church for several years. Stephanie also helps keep her church grounds clean and in order.

Ministry has been a part of Stephanie’s life. If I see something that needs to be done, she does it.  Stephanie came from a lineage of Pastors, Evangelists, Ministers. She knew in her pre-adult and so-called grown (18 yrs. old) days, being different and she couldn't get away with things that others could so easily. Stephanie felt conviction immediately and it appeared that no one else was being convicted but me. People have told her, "You don't look right in the club". Total strangers. However, she learned that Grace and Mercy covered me even while she was in Sin. Stephanie’s anointing followed her where ever she went. Had anyone said to Stephanie that I would be in Ministry, she would have brushed them off or laughed at them back in the day. Stephanie became the very person she swore never to be and that's a Minister-in-training.

Stephanie came across CLI at an unusual hour and just out of the blue. She was online searching for an Attorney and it just popped up out of nowhere. Normally Stephanie would ignore ads or other invites. However, she could not ignore it. The holy spirit wouldn't allow her to do so. Since then Stephanie has completed 24 credit hours just in the year of 2018! She has an amazing GPA and is willing to assist other students in their ministry walk.

Flag Bearer Profile Barbara Kraemer

I'm a Christian woman. In June this year (2020), I'll celebrate 41 years as a Spirit-filled believer. These forty years have been one amazing journey after another with God, who has led me through adventures, mysteries, dangers, intrigues, excitement, and sometimes hopeless-looking situations. With God, I've always received victory in Jesus; every time. That is not to say some endings haven't been what I would have liked them to be. But still, I could write books on the "Adventures of God and Barbara". You just can't make this stuff up, and life is rich when you're in the Lord.

I used to hear things like, "You'll know if God's calling you to ministry," and "If God isn't calling you to ministry, you'll screw up and know you're not called." I've always been most enthusiastic for Jesus and really "wanted to be called" to ministry. I wasn't sure what being called to ministry would feel like, and since I didn't feel anything in particular, and opportunities weren't falling at my feet, I was not sure at all that I actually "was" called to ministry. I didn't want to "screw up," so I concluded I wasn't called. But still, I never believed that was possible or true.

This New Year (2019) has ushered in tragedy since New Year's Day for many families, friends, and everyone I speak with, it seems. It is frightening, and the world needs to hear of the hope of Jesus. I have tried my best to comfort those I know, but I've felt so inadequate to comfort the hurting and truly reach their souls with God's word or touch. Searching online Bible education programs has been a long-time practice, but up until now, none was right for me. I continued praying about this, my frustration mounting with all the tragedies and difficulties people are facing.

Late one night, while researching endangered species of sea turtles around the world, listings for free online Bible programs popped up in my browser. My eyes fell upon Christian Leaders Institute Online Christian Ministry Training. I started reading. Impressive! Moving! Serious! Free! (What? Really? No way. Really?) Obviously, the rest is history. God does have His time and His ways! (Awesome!)

Historically, I know many will say "...she's too old." I say not! "Too old" is no more a factor than "too young." I am what I am by the grace of God, and this is what God has for my life right now. Think of it this way: with age comes wisdom, experience, talents of a mature, older person are God-given and fruits of the Spirit. And He wants to see what we will do with what He has given us. So, I believe God is going to use me in great ways, and He's preparing me through Christian Leaders Institute and those of you I'll meet along the way. I am blessed and fortunate and look forward to this latest undertaking in the book called life in Christian Living.
