Question: Dear Mark....I participated in your seminar recently and since then I have gone through the supplied workbook and the textbook, have recruited 3 spiritual advisers, and have been submitting much journaling material to them.  I'm looking at taking a few not-for-credit courses with Christian Leadership University, and would like to do at least one with a Personal Spiritual Trainer.  Here is some of my journaling.  Thank you very much for your consideration. 

Answer: Your journaling below is fantastic. We are thrilled to have you as a new student in Christian Leadership University. Keep up the great work! Mark Virkler

Beautiful, colorful Bible land maps can bring stories alive as you read the Scriptures. You get to see the world through the eyes of those who were living there. Now we have numerous outstanding services on the internet which provide free, full color maps of every conceivable story, town and village mentioned in the Bible. Let me tell you about two of these online resources so that your Bible can come alive in a whole new way.

Chiropractic care is not just for pain in your back or neck. Regular chiropractic treatment ensures that any minor misalignments in one's vertebrae are quickly corrected so that the nerves which pass through them to various organs do not have any pressure on them. Pressure on a nerve curtails the signals being transmitted from the brain to that organ, and that in turn causes the organ to degenerate.

Question: Can you please explain to me why Dr. Mercola's website discourages eating grains when the Bible has Scriptures directing us to eat grains? 

I eat the Ezekiel Bread and other organic bread. Jesus multiplied bread and fish to feed the hungry thousands who were following him. In fact, Jesus himself ate bread. Can you then make sense as to why people are telling us not to eat grains? Barbara Jean

We have two new excellent interactive books, just out, which activate journaling and the prophetic flow. They make such a wonderful combo set, we are encouraging you to purchase them both as part of your reference library and for your own spiritual growth. One is by a Christian Leadership University graduate, and the other by a close friend who heads up a Prophetic Training Institute which I have had the honor of speaking at. Your relationship with the Lord can take another leap forward through the insights in these books!

Since fear, anxiety and stress damage the body, the immune system, the digestion and colon as well as our spiritual health, we must displace them by abiding in the biblical opposites of faith, hope, love and peace. These bring healing to our entire beings. You may choose to make the following prayer a part of your morning and evening meditations (1 Chron. 23:30) for a period of time until they fully light your inner being.

I suggest you speak them aloud, slowly and prayerfully, tuned to flow and looking to see the pictures the Lord wants to give you, as pictures are the language of your heart. Repeat each sentence (or part of a sentence) a second time, with your eyes closed, letting it sink down into your heart and spirit (i.e. "seeing" it). This takes you into a biblical meditation stance allowing the Holy Spirit to reveal the truth more deeply to your heart. If you only get part way through the prayer meditation below in one session, that is perfectly fine. Slow down, enjoy, and let the Holy Spirit lead. You can pick it up again in your next prayer time.

Disease often begins with dis-ease in our hearts, so do whatever it takes to master the art of living in faith, hope and love. You cannot establish health in your physical being if you are not walking in faith, hope and love! Note what the opposites of faith, hope and love do to your health (these sins of fear, despair and anger are three of many sins which one can fall into):
