Matchmaking Ministry (1 Credit)
Professor Kristina Lynn
M'inscrire The need for matching making is urgent. Many active Christians are struggling to find their spouses. Many parents are frustrated their children are not finding godly spouses. Many Christian singles whether they are divorced or widowed report they are stymied in frustration as they seek a Christian partner. Many have tried online dating, but more is needed with that resource!
The Bible has a worldview on this: 2 Corinthians 6:14 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? This means that a Christian is called to marry other practicing Christians. It could also mean that the spouse actually needs to be a Christian before the marriage. What about marrying someone who is not a Christian? These types of issues are dealt with in this class.
Class Outcomes:
- Learn the Biblical worldview on matchmaking
- Learn pastoral counseling approaches to helping someone find their match
- Become proficient in the skills of matchmaking
- Learn how life coaching and matchmaking connect.

Read the Inspiring Testimony of this Fellow Christian Leaders Institute Student
CLI Student Teresa Asher
"My name is Teresa Asher and I live in Kettering, Ohio. I am 54 years old. I work in the medical profession and have great compassion for the elderly patients. I volunteer as a Group Leader for an international bible study group and I love the ladies I have the privilege of shepherding. And I love the Lord with all my heart, soul and mind.
I was not raised in a Christian home and it was not until later in life when I truly began seeking a personal relationship with Jesus. I began looking for answers as to how God would right the wrongs in my life and I found so much more than I could ever imagine. In my bible I read about God's grace and mercy, and God's love. I started going to church and formed a small bible study with my three sisters and my mother. How precious it is to include God in your family. I joined an international bible study group and after three years they asked me to become a Group Leader. What an honor and privilege to serve our Lord in this way.
In pursuit of finding deeper spiritual growth and a possible career in ministry, I searched for Bible Colleges online and realized it would be very costly. Even though I was disappointed, I did not give up and prayed about it. Months later I found CLI, I believe it was by God's direction.
A scholarship at CLI is a blessing. With the knowledge I gain I will become more confident and efficient in leadership and helping others to understand the gospel. In Revelation 22, Jesus says "Behold, I am coming soon!". There is such an urgency to spread the good Word and save souls. With CLI and God's guidance, I can do that. I know God has a good plan for me."
Please pray for Teresa and her ministry!
