“Understanding that [God] is always speaking and that I can tune in to hear Him created a seismic shift in my prayer life and spiritual walk. It's literally changed everything about how I see and do life.”

 

“[Hearing God’s Voice] was literally a life-altering workshop. As a cradle Catholic I'd never heard before that God wanted to talk to ME directly – that He had things to say to ME. That stuff was always for "the Saints." Understanding that He is always speaking and that I can tune in to hear Him created a seismic shift in my prayer life and spiritual walk. It's literally changed everything about how I see and do life. If every Catholic knew this, our parishes would be full to overflowing and our communities would be transformed.”

- KRISTEN M. (Alexandria, VA)

 

“The Hearing God’s Voice workshop transformed my prayer life, how I viewed God, and how I evangelize. From this workshop I learned how God sees me and cherishes me. Most important to me, though, was the lasting effect of my daily conversations with God because of how I learned He speaks to me and how to identify what is Him speaking.”

- MARY S. (Springfield, VA)

 

“[The Hearing God’s Voice course] reignited my desire to be in a relationship with God. More than the ‘fuzzy-feeling-I-should-probably-do-this’ shame-based ‘should,’ it practically reminded me that God loves me and wants to speak to my heart EVERY DAY. Fear has always been a huge stumbling block for me in trusting God or His plan for my life, if He had one... I feel like I've been waiting for the other shoe to drop or the rug to be pulled out from underneath me, ESPECIALLY when things are ‘going good.’ Going over the material and talking with Jonna through what's true and what's a lie, what's God's voice and what isn't, continues to shed light into the darker parts of my heart, allowing me to begin to take baby risks and trust that God is who Jesus says He is in scripture – a good, loving Father who wants nothing more than for me to be with Him, and He does in fact have a plan for my life. CRM has provided a safe space to take those risks in trusting that God will show up, and Jonna has shared an abundance of hope with me so I can take the training wheels off and learn to ride with God in a new way. It's not as scary anymore. In every moment I am good, loved, and enough, and it is His desire to tell me that in unique ways each day. I believe that now. I want to be a part of the revival as a result of the course!”

“What a blessing to be filled with the reminders of how the Holy Spirit moves! The Worship course brought me out of a long period of dryness in prayer. Thank you!”

“This workshop not only awakened my ability to hear Papa God speaking directly to me, but also helped me to remember times in the past when God had spoken to me without my awareness it was Him.”

 

“Before attending Hearing God’s Voice, for over 50 years as a faithful cradle Catholic, I never expected or experienced God speaking to me directly and personally. My prayer life was a one-way communication. I lived with the belief that God only spoke through scripture, circumstance, or the guidance of others, but never directly or personally to me. This workshop not only awakened my ability to hear Papa God speaking directly to me, but also helped me to remember times in the past when God had spoken to me without my awareness it was Him. It is amazing how much my faith and personal relationship with God has deepened since attending the HGV workshop!”

- CHRIS P. (Alexandria, VA)

 

“I was a cradle Catholic trying to follow all the rules. I always felt a pull towards God and my faith, but didn’t really devote any extra time to it until we became empty nesters. I loved this course because I learned that God speaks to me in a voice that I can understand. For years I had been trying to understand God’s will for me through ways other people suggested — read the Bible, read Thomas Aquinas, go to daily Mass, etc. I just never felt good enough for God. It never occurred to me that I could have this personal relationship with God/Jesus. He loved me where I was and who I was right then and there. I still get teary eyed when I think of the moment I realized this. My life literally changed during this course. The seeds were always there – Jonna and Jim just tilled the soil and watered the seeds.”

- KELLY S. (Springfield, VA)

 

“Jim and Jonna’s all-in authentic love for Jesus and humble willingness to share their gifts with us shone in each of our long-distance lessons. Every touch brought us tangible ways to enable us to be the hands and feet of Christ as we intercede for our sick and suffering brothers and sisters. They are definitely worth the investment of time and treasure.”

- MAGGIE S. (Quad Cities, IL)

 

“I feel more confident in praying for healing for others. I see how God has provided many opportunities for me to pray for those seeking healing even when I least expected it. I remember being out one time and there were two young ladies on the street sitting on the ground and really needing prayer. I just felt convicted that God put me there to pray for their healing. The tools I learned in the [Healing] course were very helpful! They really have assisted me in leaning into this gift and cooperating with God’s grace. He is leading and I am desiring to follow his inspirations...”

“When I returned to my college campus, I had an unquenchable desire to share Him with others in the most radically beautiful ways.”

 

“I became a different person after [the Kingdom Builders] workshop. There was no person I didn't want to pray with or speak to about God's love and goodness for them. When I returned to my college campus, I had an unquenchable desire to share Him with others in the most radically beautiful ways.”

- MARY S. (Springfield, VA)

 

“It was refreshing to meet others who are pursuing a life with the Holy Spirit and respond to the voice of the Lord so willingly. I will take the many notes with me in prayer for months to come and cannot wait for a continued relationship with Holy [Spirit] as I move into deeper prayer with what I have gained through Catholic Revival Ministries. Personally, I have received healing in areas that have impacted me for the past four years and am incredibly thankful to CRM for providing means to that healing.”

- KELSEY G. (Kansas City, KS)

 

“Learning Kingdom tools and applying them to my life have helped me become fully alive as a worshipper and pray-er. I have grown to be confident in God's call to lead praise and worship, starting a group on my college campus, helping to initiate a youth praise and worship/adoration with my fiancé at his parish, and volunteering at my home parish for first Friday adoration.”

- G.F. (Alexandria, VA)

 

“I liken the Kingdom Builders workshop to applying jumper cables to my spiritual life. New energy, new hunger, new understanding, new tools, new LIFE! In the years since, I'm still applying what I learned, and the Holy Spirit has been faithful to answer my pleas for "more!" I am grateful to Jim and Jonna for what they poured into me.”
