Meet a Fellow Christian Leaders Institute Student
CLI Student Leah Anderson
"I stumbled upon Christian Leaders Institute when I was googling free Bible classes that I could take online. Finally being out of school is actually weird for me and I was looking for something to do over the summer, but also for a way to increase my knowledge of the Bible and help me be better fit to work in a ministerial position further down the road. I feel called to minister to our youth, whether that be through a public or private school setting, as a helper in a youth group, working at a christian camp, etc. and I feel like the training provided by CLI will help prepare me for whatever kind of role the Lord has for me. I am excited to start this journey.
I became a Christian when I was eight years old. I saw my older sister be baptized and having grown up in the church, that was something that everyone did. I didn't really know what it meant to be a follower of Christ at the time. However, as I got older and started attending youth group, Bible studies, having a christian mentor, etc. my relationship with Christ began to get more personal. I went through some highs and lows in my college and recent post-college years, but I have ultimately learned that life without Christ is meaningless. He is the only who can truly satisfy us and He is the one who is ultimately in control. Learning to trust Him (and I'm still learning) has been a difficult process but it has also been an extremely rewarding process. I am excited to start this journey with CLI and see how the Lord uses this training for His glory."
