Amos Langa enrolled in CLI in 2018 and since then has completed 70 credit hours.

Here is his testimony in his own words:

As long ago as I can remember, I always believe in God. I consider myself a man of integrity and I try to do the right things in dealing with others. I work hard, and I pray harder. I believe that if I did enough of the right things and work harder, surely I will enter the kingdom of God. I had a great life. Every time I achieve a goal I expect that achievement to be followed by satisfaction and happiness. I enjoy the praise and the appearance of success.

One day when I was a young boy, out of the blue my mother said to me “you know, you are a very influential young man”. I wanted to be a man of influence. As my mother spoke that day, I knew that the influence and success I am going to have is not going to be enough. I understood that I was a sinner and could never pay the price of being good enough to please God. The only thing that really mattered was Jesus, the Son of man and his death on the cross.

I knew that I needed to be saved to accept Jesus and that his work was sufficient to assure me of God’s love for me and a place in Heaven. I realized it was not enough to just know about Jesus. I needed to know Him personally. I  accepted Jesus Christ and placed all my faith in Him and His work on the Cross and I was baptized. I will always be grateful to my mother for that.

After I accepted Jesus Christ as my savior, I came to know what it means to be satisfied. I looked at things from a different angle. I was no longer empty, I was filled with a sense of purpose that was bigger than the moment. I become hungry to know what the Bible said about being the right kind of man, the right model of a father, and God’s guidelines for life. My outward life may not have changed much, because I had tried to be a moral person.

However, on the inside, there was a huge difference. For the first time, I knew contentment. I am amazed by God’s grace and forgiveness, as he continues to show me what He considers success and how to live in the only life that satisfies, a life that is covered by the blood of Jesus Christ.

Amos is ready to serve CLI students and help them on their ministry journey!

Brian's Testimony:
I am a South African citizen living in a beautiful world-renowned city of “Durban” in South Africa. South Africa boasts of a culturally rich and diverse ethical atmosphere, and is better known as the “Rainbow Nation”. Peoples of every nation and tongue connect here on our home soil. Religious practices of every kindred are respected and encouraged to flourish within their homes and communities. Christianity like all other religious movements is respected and tolerated equally well here. I hail from a community steeped in idol worship. My small village “Illovo” which is situated in the lower South Coast of Durban has three idol filled temples and two small churches. Everyone is happy and peaceful here. There is rarely or hardly any evangelism done here. On the bigger scale, Christianity is well rooted in South Africa. Both foreign and local ministries (Multi – Denominations) flourish here on South African soil.

Christian Leaders Institute has helped pave the way for me to receive a sound world-class biblical education. The presentation of the study and course material by professional teachers is highly commendable. I have experienced many positive life-changing moments as I pursued my studies here at CLI. Both the study material and the CLI faculty have challenged me in my thinking and in the way I do and perceive things. My mind has been greatly renewed; my understanding of scripture has taken on a new scriptural and biblical dimension. I would strongly recommend any sincere individual, who is serious about God and the Holy Scriptures, to come and study here at Christian Leaders Institute. I am greatly indebted to CLI. Christian Leaders Institute has made it possible for me to be successfully ordained as a pastor.

Deidre (Sassman) Dominick is married and the mother of 2 incredible boys. The first encounter she had with God was when she was 6yrs old. She was got saved when I was 14. She is connected to a Pentecostal worldview.

She has always felt a strong desire to see not just revival in the church, but Christians receiving the revelation of the love of God and centering him in the church and in their lives.

Deidre as called over 15 years ago. She began studying at Christian Leaders Institute in 2018. She was also ordained in 2018.

In October 2012, Esihle Mboyana with his wife, Maria, and daughter relocated to Johannesburg from Cape Town.

Esihle Mboyana was raised in a Christian home by a Godly single mother. He walked with the Lord early on but had a time of straying.

Then, on March 30, 2010, when a life shuttering occurrence came into his life. Only the Lord could revive and strengthen him during that period. On that day he took the walk of salvation much more seriously and re-accept/re-affirm my faith in Christ once again as my Lord and personal Savior.

Shortly after this, Esihle sensed the call into ministry. He began Christian Leaders Institute in 2016. He was ordained in the Christian Leaders Alliance in 2017.

He is willing to mentor young Christian Leaders who are studying at Christian Leaders Institute. He will also help with ordination into the Christian Leaders Alliance.
