Worship Academy has not only equipped me to feel affirmed in my gifting musically, spiritually and in leadership but being with the ‘family’ has bought a lot of real issues that I battle with, such as an anxiety disorder I’ve had for a number of years, to the foreground for genuine healing in a very safe environment.

Through God’s grace, Chris, Andy and all the other guest visitor’s wonderful input, along with the support of my new life long friends - this is more than just a retreat now and then – this is real Christian growth in His Glory.

I don’t just recommend worship academy, I suggest it essential you join the vision as soon as you are able.

Being part of Academy 5 has shown me so much of God's plan for my life and helped me to rest in His presence like I have never done before. We've had superb teaching and fellowship, fun and food, not to mention establishing some lifelong friendships too.

We have all learnt to step out of our comfort zones as Jesus holds our hand. It has been stunning watching the group changing under His anointing and prompting…such a privilege!

I'm not sure if even an infinite amount of scrolling through the pages on the website, reading the publicity or even talking to past and current students could ever give you a complete picture of the Academy culture. There are a host of surprises waiting for you...

Like anything that requires a 'stepping out' element, Academy without doubt provides a unique experience that forms that solid bridge over which God will meet with you in more ways than you could imagine. Why? Because Academy is an environment soaked in Holy Spirit anointing and fed with years of wisdom and experience from some of the worlds finest teachers.
