"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. And love your neighbor as yourself." Mark 12:29-31
ECLI propels people to their greatest legacy through love, learning, and leadership. Godly leadership is overflowing all of God’s character into whatever adventure He has placed you in so that others will want to join you in fulfilling His purpose. Then aligning those people based on their gifts and passions so that you can all pursue that adventure together with great efficiency and inexplicable joy. It starts with loving God intimately and then consequently loving others. Leadership without love is manipulation.
ECLI provides an opportunity to be immersed in divine growth. To learn how to set a firm foundation in your relationship with God, to be free from anything that could hold you back from bringing Him as much honor and glory possible in every aspect in your life…spiritual, mental, physical and financial. To equip you to use your personality, gifts, and passions to propel the Kingdom of God forward by effectively leading yourself and others into all that God has for you.

Each semester of EMERGE, our students participate in an outreach project. In the spring of 2019, our students wanted to honor the culture of hope at Clearview Cancer Institute as well provide encouragement to their staff and patients. They shared themselves by way of choosing songs and scriptures that God has used in their personal lives to encourage them through tough seasons. They wrote about their experiences and perspectives.
These are 14-18 year old students who have never had cancer, and do not have degrees in biblical theology. However, they know how God has proven himself trustworthy in their own lives and believe 100% that He will be just as faithful to anyone who needs it.
So, whether you are connected to CCI or not, we pray these playlists and these devotionals encourage you and remind you of the faithfulness of God. We pray HOPE and PEACE over you regardless your circumstances.
May God bless you as you invite Him to speak to you through these students.
