“I want to take this time to tell you how pleased our ministry is in having received your “boot camp” training series. We have been doing deliverance ministry for more than 35 years, but seeing your in depth study process of deliverance was indeed a breath of fresh air.
Recently our ministry has adopted this process of deliverance to become the format of our instruction to those who are truly hurting. We Praise God for the insight, and want to thank you and your staff for making this teaching available.”
“I came out of a mainline church that unfortunately over the years has nominalized Christ’s teaching on deliverance and healing. I was awakened to this aspect of biblical teaching through several trips to Africa and as a result, the Holy Spirit sent me on a search to expand my understanding and skill in this area.
Fortunately, I discovered the Boot Camp and immediately enrolled. This is a solidly biblical course that is practical and the great wealth of tools that they provide is simply outstanding. This online course is flexible to meet any schedule. The Holy Spirit has me on a journey to reclaim deliverance and healing as part of my ministry and Above and Beyond Counseling has me well on my way. Thanks and God bless to Don and the rest of the staff at Above and Beyond.”
“I wanted to thank you for the Deliverance Boot Camp training materials and handouts/homework which resulted in a successful process for a fellow believer who has wanted deliverance for some time now. Even though I am a lay person new to healing through deliverance, I still felt a calm and confident peace in administering the training and the deliverance session outlined in the training modules you have developed.
I feel the information is anointed and The Holy Spirit showed up mightily through each session and teaching during our time together. May God’s blessings continue to flow through you and everyone at your ministry to the saving of many lives.“
Why did you take the Boot Camp?
God lead me to take this training and bring this teaching to my church elders as a ministering tool for deliverance in our congregation.
What was your overall experience with the Boot Camp?
I thank God for the wonderful work He is doing through the Above and Beyond Counseling Ministries. After completing the training, I felt so free to minster in the power and authority of Jesus Christ. All the things I learned from the Boot Camp training was never taught to me in such a clear, knowledgeable and comprehensible way.
I am working with the church to create a deliverance ministry. God is using me to minister deliverance over a few leaders and members of the church. Because of this training I have less fear of God’s calling on my life. Presently, I look forward to doing God’s will because I feel much more prepared and trust that He is in control.

What have you done (or plan to do) with the teaching you received?

Other Comments
This training is wonderful! Such a blessing it was and is, it gave me confirmation which led to extra surety and security to taking my next steps out with the deliverance ministry.

What have you done (or plan to do) with the teaching you received?
My Deliverance Boot Camp training has been invaluable to me in my lay leadership role at our Church. With the permission of A&B I have been able to successfully incorporate many of the handouts and slides into the last three LifeGroup bible study focuses I’ve hosted. Doing this has resulted in spirits being bound and cast out of many of the strongholds we identified.
Any suggestions you would make to potential students who are considering this training?
This course is an eye-opener and confirms that we must not only learn the characteristics of our enemy but also lean how to engage in spiritual warfare after they are identified and cast out. Scripture says in Hosea 4:6 that we perish for lack of knowledge. I encourage prospective students to get started in gaining that knowledge by taking this comprehensive Boot Camp training course.
