Basic Training Vanable H. Moody II

HAVE YOU COMPLETED YOUR TRAINING? Before any soldier goes to war or active duty, they are required to complete "Basic Training." In order to win our "battle against authorities, powers of this dark world and evil forces in high places" (Ephesians 6:12), every believer must also successfully complete "Basic Training." The reason many of us are living defeated lives is because we go to war unprepared. We enlist for active duty without completing our training. In Basic Training: The 7 Essentials for Spiritual Maturity, the author teaches us the seven essentials needed to establish the believer in the faith and to spiritually mature and prepare them to be victorious in their life. This material is critical for all believers and foundational classes in the local church. Vanable H. Moody II, affectionately known as "Pastor Van," is the founder and Senior Pastor | Teacher of the Worship Center Christian Church in Birmingham, Alabama.
