We all long to have a deep connection with God where we can interact with Him. We long for our prayer time to be a two-way conversation. We desire to seek God for wisdom and hear His thoughts on what we should do. After all, we do not worship a God of stone but a God who is personal, who dwells within us through the Holy Spirit. Learn to discern His voice from your voice or, worse the enemy's voice
The Rage Reset™
Anger is a powerful emotion. While the emotion itself is not a problem how we respond to anger can be. The Bible says in your anger don't sin, indicating we can have the emotion of anger and be holy. Stop letting anger get the best of you and your relationships.
The Shame Detox™
Shame is an issue we all deal with. It's a close companion that exists as an inner critic telling us we are not good enough, won't amount to anything, hounds us about our sin. Discover what it means to live free from condemnation and shame
The Anxiety Exodus™
Escape the trap of worry, anxiety and fear. Jesus said you can't add a single hour to our lives by worrying. Implying that we can certainly lose an hour. Don't lose your life worrying or living in fear and start living.

How to Study the Bible: Stories of the Bible
The vast majority of the Bible is is God's truth communicated through story. Yet, most of us have learned to study the Bible by listening to sermons based on Paul's teachings or letters. Unfortunately, when we try to study a story like we study direct teaching in the Bible we miss the richness of God's truth. By learning how to study the Bible's stories, you'll experience a whole new level of engagement and understanding. Stories show us how to live out the truths of the Bible.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
Marianne R.
Virginia
"What a powerful, biblically accurate, encouraging, and practical course! The Lord had placed me in the midst of an exceptionally difficult life trial where I desperately needed to “hear God’s voice” to provide clarity and direction. Rick’s course was God’s timely provision. This course combines sound theology tied to Scripture along with real-life examples from Rick’s own experiences as well as practical exercises; all of which help make the material come to life. I especially enjoyed the session on fear and anxiety. Life-changing truths!"
Oscar Aizcorbe
Fairfax, VA
"I am blessed to have studied with Rick Reiter for many years – for me personally, it’s been ten years. Rick is a gifted pastor and Bible study leader whose teaching has impacted my life significantly. His teaching has been a gateway to better understanding scripture and applying it to my everyday life. I have grown in my relationship with the Lord as a result. I'm privileged to be in a Bible study with him every week and it serves as an anchor for my week, keeping me focused on God’s will for my life. My life is richer for knowing Rick and I am grateful for his teaching and prayer support."
Dave Counts
Fairfax, VA
"I met Rick about 5 years ago at a Bible study. Since then, we have become friends, and he has become an important presence in my life. Rick played a major role in the growth of my faith. His knowledge of the Bible and his amazing gift of bringing the Word to life has been a blessing to me and the other men in our group. In addition, the way Rick lives his life is an inspiration to all of us. He lives what he teaches, and I get to see it firsthand. I pray that Rick will always be available to men like me because we need him."
S.P.

The Hearing God course taught me to hear God's voice clearly, but I also discovered it was more than about hearing His voice. I finally found freedom from condemnation that I wasn’t experiencing in my life. I knew intellectually there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, but the very first lesson about condemnation showed me I did not apply that knowledge to be free. These courses transformed my relationship with God and to walk in His freedom and forgiveness.
Tim Thompson
Virginia
"My wife and I took this course, and it completely changed our lives for the best! It’s a missing element that we needed to understand to embrace hearing God and understanding His character and much more."
