A Global Movement of Called, Credentialed, and Commissioned Servants of Christ
Welcome to the Christian Leaders Alliance (CLA)—an expanding, Spirit-empowered global community of Christian leaders who serve in volunteer, part-time, and full-time ministry roles. Whether you’re officiating weddings, guiding souls, comforting the brokenhearted, or planting new ministries, you are part of something sacred.
If you sense God calling you into ministry, this is your place.
CLA offers study-based, Spirit-filled credentialing pathways through Christian Leaders Institute (CLI), leading to ordination recognition through the Christian Leaders Alliance.
Each path is designed to affirm your unique calling, equipping you for real, recognized ministry in your community and beyond. If you have been asked to officiate a wedding, check out our wedding officiant ordination center, click here.

Ephesians 4:7 (WEB) declares:
“But to each one of us was the grace given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.”
At Christian Leaders Alliance, we believe that grace becomes a gift, and that gift becomes ministry.
You don’t need to be famous. You don’t need a building. If God has given you a heart to serve, we’re here to help you answer that call.
Soul Centers are geographic or digital communities of CLA-ordained leaders who unite to serve, grow, and spark spiritual transformation in their regions.

Soul Centers are the local expression of our global movement.

“At the end of my prayer, I sat up in my chair… Christian Leaders Institute was the first search result. I clicked the link and signed up. It was an instant answer to my prayer!”
Hi, I’m Hayley, and I live just south of North Platte, Nebraska, at Lake Maloney. My husband and I are raising our son, Blake, in a Christian home just like we were raised.
Though I gave my life to Christ as a young girl at Bible camp, life pulled me off track for a season. After becoming a mom, I began to seek God’s purpose for my life more seriously. I prayed for direction—to become someone my son would be proud of.
God answered my prayer in a remarkable way. After feeling stuck and unsure of my career path, I googled “cheap college classes” and discovered Christian Leaders Institute. It was the very first result.
Now I am pursuing my calling to become a Licensed Life Coach Minister, ready to support others spiritually, emotionally, and even physically. CLI and CLC have taught me to involve Christ in every decision, and I dream of one day opening a mentor and counseling center in my community.
“This milestone marks a significant step in my spiritual journey.”
My name is Pastor Allen Igbinomwanhia Omoregie. Becoming a Licensed Chaplain Minister is more than a credential—it is a calling fulfilled.
I have always been drawn to serving people in their most vulnerable moments. This role prepares me to provide spiritual care in hospitals, prisons, and military settings with both credibility and compassion.
My spiritual journey began with a life-changing conversion in my twenties. Since then, I’ve served in various ministry roles including youth leadership and evangelism. As a pastor, I understand the importance of empathy and cultural sensitivity, and I desire to extend ministry beyond traditional church settings.
Christian Leaders Institute has been an incredible support system. Their training has deepened my understanding of chaplaincy and provided practical skills in crisis intervention and bereavement support. Even more, I’ve connected with a community of fellow ministers who share a passion to serve.
The path ahead is clear: further studies in counseling, biblical leadership, and more. I am thankful to CLI and CLA for equipping me to walk in this calling.
“Now I have the confidence and credentials to add weddings to my list of ministries.”
My name is Joshua, and my ministry story is a lifelong one. I was born and raised in a Christian home in upstate New York and made my faith my own as a teenager.
At age 18, I took a mission trip to Zambia, Africa, which transformed my walk with the Lord. From that moment, I led Bible studies, volunteered at churches, and eventually made Christian ministry my career. My wife Sarah and I moved to Florida where we worked in ministry logistics. Later, we returned to Zambia as missionaries for Overland Missions.
In 2024, I transitioned into Christian education, returning to New York with my wife and two children to teach at Vision Christian Bible College and Seminary, where I am also pursuing a Masters and PhD in Theology.
Despite over a decade in ministry, I had never received official credentials. That changed when a friend asked me to officiate their wedding. I found Christian Leaders Alliance and became a Licensed Wedding Officiant Minister. Now, I serve with confidence, knowing my ordination stands on biblical foundations.
