STUDENT JOURNEY - CHARIS EXPERIENCE
I am truly honored and grateful to have studied and completed my first year at Charis Bible College through Distance Education.
Charis came into my life like a miracle. I was in a season where I was searching and eager to learn more about God. While traveling with some friends, they introduced me to Charis. It was truly a miracle that came at exactly the right time!
From the moment I decided to dedicate my time to studying, listening, and applying what I was learning, my life began to change.
One of my greatest takeaways was learning that God truly loves me—yes, me! I always knew that God loved me, but deep down, I believed that I had to do my part to earn His love. Through the teachings at Charis, I came to understand that God loves me simply because of who He is—not because of what I have done.
I also learned that I can talk to my Heavenly Father freely and confidently, just as a child talks to their dad. This has completely changed the way I relate to God.
I am so grateful for the opportunity to study through Distance Education. I will forever be thankful for what God has done in my life through Charis Bible College.
My life has been changed because I now have a better understanding of who I am in Christ, how I should live, and how to apply God’s Word in my daily life.
Thank you, Charis Bible College, for making this opportunity available to us. I am excited to continue growing in the knowledge and understanding of God’s Word.

I’m Rachel Kezia, first-year student at Charis Bible College, Hyderabad (Distance Education). My knowledge and perspective of the Word of God have advanced tremendously since I joined Charis.
I used to think that I had to perform a lot spiritually—praying for hours, fasting, and shedding tears. But through the teachings of Andrew Wommack, I realised that I simply need to receive what Jesus accomplished for me on the cross.
Earlier, I used to pray, “Lord, anoint me.” Now I realise that as a born-again believer, I have the same Spirit living inside me. I have everything I need, including healing and prosperity, within me; I simply need to learn how to release it.
For healing, I used to pray, “Lord, heal me.” Now I understand that I can command sickness to leave my body.
I used to believe that God was very strict and that He judged me for every detail of my life. But now my perspective has completely changed. I see the Lord as a loving Father who loves me immensely.
The book ‘Spirit, Soul and Body’ has drastically changed my spiritual and personal life. Now I understand how important it is for me to renew my mind. I have learned that the mind is like a valve between the spirit and the body. No one had taught me this truth before.
I am an evangelist, and I now share these truths with my family, friends, and followers.
Above all, I have learned the importance of keeping the Word in my heart, allowing it to grow, and imagining the promises of God as though they have already been fulfilled.
Thank you, Andrew Wommack, and Charis Bible College, for teaching me these life-changing truths.

Charis teachings have always been a great blessing to me.
However, after joining the correspondence course, I became aware of many biblical truths that I had never understood before, even though I was one of the leaders in my local church. As my knowledge of God's Word increased, so did my faith.
The teachings by Andrew, Barry, Greg, and Carrie were truly faith-building and helped me gain a deeper understanding of God's Word.
The teaching on Spirit, Soul, and Body was a real game changer for me.
In addition, Andrew's book, "You've Already Got It!", was a true eye-opener. It helped me understand what Christ has already accomplished for us and strengthened my walk with the Lord.
Above all, I have come to know that God is truly a good, good Father.
I thank God for Charis and for everything it is accomplishing for the Kingdom of God.
I would also like to express my sincere appreciation to the Charis India team for their hard work, dedication, and faithful service in equipping God's people.
Thank you so much. May God continue to bless you all! - Mario J Furtado (Goa)

During my study at Charis Bible College India-Hyderabad, I learned that healing is provided in Christ’s atonement and that He wants all of us to walk in divine health. My mother was diagnosed with kidney failure. The doctors advised that she be put on dialysis and would need to undergo surgery. We trusted God’s Word and His will and believed in her healing and wholeness. She received her healing, and the same doctor who recommended surgery came back and discharged her from the hospital with a normal report. I thank God for Charis

Before joining Charis, my life was full of cares and worries, I was worried about my marriage and I was struggling financially and did not know what to do. During that time, I joined Charis Bible College Delhi. The first topic is ‘Sure Foundation’ where I got to learn about the importance of God’s word which works like a seed. I started paying attention to the lessons and by the time I got promoted to the second year I was blessed financially and got married, now I am blessed with a baby boy. Teachings at Charis have blessed me with peace, and joy, and above all helped how to love the Lord by loving His word.

The lesson on righteousness through grace in DE had a profound impact on my understanding. In my 32 years of ministry, I had never heard of this concept before, so it was an eye-opener for me. The revelation in 2 Corinthians 5:21 states "For our sake he made him be sin who knew no sin so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." Jesus became sin not by committing any sinful actions, and the same applies to us becoming righteous through Him, without any righteous actions of our own.

I'm Blessed and I say that with Conviction. I have been trying to join a bible college for quite some time but was not very keen on the subjects or doctrines being taught. I have been hearing those truths from Sunday school. Those doctrines didn't help when things got messy in my spiritual life. There were answers to my questions. but the answers were meaningless.
These few days of teaching from sure foundation, healing, and life foundation were challenging and an eye-opening experience. I am going through a Paradigm shift at Charis Bible College.
I feel this is just the beginning. I thank God with all my heart for leading me here.

I was searching for a deep and vibrant relationship with God. I wanted to please God with my own strength, but I kept failing. That's when I discovered the teachings at Charis Bible College. Through their teachings, I came to understand the finished work of Jesus Christ in my life. I learned that He became sin for me, even though He knew no sin so that I might become the righteousness of God in Him. This realization set me free. Now, I don't relate to God based on my own goodness, but on His righteousness in me. This has opened the way for me to receive all things that pertain to life and godliness through His grace. I've also received healing on many occasions because I no longer find it difficult to receive from God. I'm truly grateful to God for Charis Bible College.

It was a wise choice for me to join Charis since it was an investment in my spiritual development. Through His Word, Charis made it easy for me to comprehend God and to get to know Him better and better. Charis provided me the ability to exercise the power that Christ offered me by giving up his life. And I've been freed from a lot of false beliefs thanks to the revelation from His Word.

God told me a few years ago that "everything will change for me." I had no idea that my decision to enroll in Charis Bible College would play such a significant role in fulfilling that promise. God has used Charis to equip me to see His plan for my life come true. Charis is without a doubt my basis for God's works to be seen in my life because I believe that He has selected me for a great purpose and is working to prepare me for it.
