SAMPLE TEACHING with Cheryl Townsley

Welcome to HOPE!

Body health is much more than a lack of disease. It is a lifestyle that ensures you have energy to work and play. It is having the knowledge you need to look good each year and even reverse the aging process afflicting your physical body. It is learning how to navigate modern health-busters with God’s wisdom and timeless principles for wholeness and shalom. In this section, you will learn, through 8 lessons how to address your lifestyle to avoid inflammation, improve digestion, and eliminate toxins so you are fit, balanced, healthy, and ready to answer the opportunities God’s destiny will send knocking at your door.

The human soul consists of your mind, will, and emotions. It encompasses all your decision processes (conscious and subconscious), the brainstem (which automatically regulates your body processes and stress response), as well as the harmony of your inner thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and perceptions of the world. While your brain is taking in millions of data points every second of every day through your senses, your soul is the filter through which you interpret and make decisions based on that data.

You are a spiritual being with a physical body. The best way to know the state of your spiritual health is to look at the fruit. Your roots (emotional and spiritual) are fed by thoughts, emotions, and relationships. Research has shown that unresolved emotions are converted into a biochemical response which is stored in various organs and systems of the body. In essence, the status of your spiritual health moves throughout your body, impacting every organ and system inside you. In this section, you will learn how to recognize disease in your spiritual roots so you can prayerfully heal, release, and eliminate soul ties, offenses, habits, and thought patterns that are negatively affecting your health. At the end you will receive a blessing for shalom.

When building a physical house to live in, it is impossible to install critical systems such as plumbing and electrical before pouring the foundation for the building to sit on. This is not only true with construction, but also with your finances. Unless you have a foundation of strong financial principles to build upon in proper sequence, your financial house cannot function properly! In this lesson you will learn what these Biblical financial principles are, and how you can implement them to create a solid foundation to build upon.

Do you work in your chosen field because you have a vision you are pursuing, or because you’re pursuing the income that the field brings with it? In this lesson, Craig teaches the principle that is critical to understand when it comes to your finances: provision follows vision, not the other way around!
