My time there was refreshing, I was running on empty most of 2009/2010. I see the value of worship and I feel equipped to face the next chapter in my life.
It does teach skill but its main focus is charachter, integrity and life, because those are the areas that bring people down.
(SOI) - school of illustration
The first 3 months I learned about art and worship.
Some highlights:
-different media every week
-color values make shapes
-background and composition are important
-all the practice and being challenged in creativity
-rendering

(FCM)- foundations of counseling ministry
The next 3 months I took a different school. Basically I discovered my Identity in God..... the best investment I've ever made. I have had alot of time to think about whats important so I got a lot out of it.
Some highlights:
-It connected all this head knowledge about God and put it in my heart.
-I learned about myself and people
-God is not a puzzle to figure out but a real friendship. Gods got it all figured out and the result is life & peace, we need to put Him first. (romans 8:5)
-what an amazing way to do life, sometimes I think about how much time has passed me by, then I think how 'worth it' it is to know how big and good God is. Nothing is more valuable than this.
-prov 4:7 kept me focused
It has taken years to climb this mountain of recovery, just to see there is another mountain at the top, this mountain of life. Now I know that God wants to climb it for me but i have to let Him.
Wherever I go I have a Great Guide through it all. God has already won
