Course Introduction
Hi, my name is Ron Adema, welcome to our web training site of the "Third Spiritual Awakening".
This objective was sown in my heart in 1995 at the SEYC Camp when I felt overwhelmed to reach 5000 young Christian people over the following ten years with the message of Phil.1:20-21. “According to my earnest expectation and hope, that I shall not be put to shame in anything, but that with all boldness, Christ shall even now, as always, be exalted in my body, whether by life or death. For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” In 2006, we reached that objective through our three summer camping ministries: SEYC, the Crossroads Camp, our Family Camp and the Youth Leadership Conference.
Now, in 2007, I once again feel overwhelmed with another objective: to initiate through you A THIRD SPIRITUAL AWAKENING within your homes, schools, states, nations and onward throughout the world.

_______________________________________________________________________________
EXERCISE #1
Our Interactive (web based) Basic Bible Study Quiz
This Interactive exercise is designed to develop your "reading out of the scriptures" ability, countering the 'disabling' habit of "reading into the scriptures". You will be expected to complete all 5 exercises along with the summary. Upon completion of each lesson we would encourage you to return to this page to update your Personal Study Folder (PSF) by clicking on this "Progress Report" form link.
EXERCISE #2
The Christian Warrior (home based) Training Manual
The purpose of this manual is to help equip new Believers to live their life with purpose and direction. It teaches how to use God’s operating assets that were received at the point of Salvation. You will not be graded as you work your way through this series of 16 lessons in both Basic and Advanced Training. You will be expected to complete all 16 exercises along with the two summary quizzes. Upon completion of each lesson we would encourage you to return to this page to update your Personal Study Folder (PSF) by clicking on this "Progress Report" form link.
EXERCISE #3
Ambassadorship (home based) Training Manual
A believer in the Lord Jesus Christ becomes an active ambassador when he (or she) takes responsibility for presenting the gospel of Jesus Christ to the community of the world in which he or she lives. These studies are to help prepare you for the conflict. Preparation means flexibility and the ability to use God’s word in witnessing. Knowledge of the basic doctrines of salvation is necessary for witnessing. You need to now about Reconciliation, Propitiation, Redemption, Imputation, Regeneration, and the Barrier, just for starters. You will not be graded as you work your way through this series of 12 lessons of Advanced Training, but you will be expected to complete all 12 exercises. Upon completion of each lesson we would encourage you to return to this page to update your Personal Study Folder (PSF) by clicking on this "Progress Report" form link.
EXERCISE #4
A "Basic Series" (home based) Bible Study
God has a desire for every one of His children to become great. In eternity past He designed a plan that would bring us to greatness. He foresaw everything we would need to fulfill our destiny, and He set aside a lifetime of provisions for each of us. The purpose of this exercise is to lay out that plan, to show from the Word the goal He wants us to reach and the means by which He intends we get there. You will not be graded as you work your way through this series of 5 Units of 5 lessons each, but you will be expected to complete all 25 lessons. Upon completion of each lesson we would encourage you to return to this page to update your Personal Study Folder (PSF) by clicking on this "Progress Report" form link.
When these four phases of study are completed
you will be awarded a "Third Spiritual Awakening" certificate.
Because you have prepared yourself through these exercises, you will be qualified to more effectively minister out from your own local churches, your own schools and communities as well as being invited to join with us in our home and foreign missions, camp ministries and youth conferences.
“Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of god the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.” (1 Cor.1:20-21)
“But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ. More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish in order that I may gain Christ.” (Phil.3:3-9)
