“Spiritual Warfare is real, sometimes as we journey in the flesh through this trying physical reality, we forget to take hold of our spiritual weapons to war against the enemy!  Tier 1 has taught me just that, as I fought against being in an unhealthy soul tie, I had to realize I wasn't warring against flesh and just flesh alone, there was a spiritual battle taking place against my spirit, principalities in high places, trying to conquer and rule over my soul, but  it wasn't until I stepped head first and put on the helmet of salvation took up the sword of the spirit that I was able to cease victory against the enemy and his sneaky malicious plot, thankful today I am being healed from that once subjugating soul tie that once had me bound.”  Brandon B.

 

 

“The learning I received from my Mentor, Dr. Willie Moody, of Chosen Generation Community Corporation (“CGCC”) was invaluable.    Particularly, my spiritual growth in various areas as it related to Tier I module, “Healthy Spiritual Formation as accessed through practicing self-discipline”.   For me, the essential part of Tier I touched me in the self-discipline areas of:  a) prayer - it helps to keep me humble and stable, working on my inner self  before I respond irrationally to others; b)solitude - I sit still and think in a quiet space - breathing in and out slowly and thanking  God for all His blessings; c)giving of myself (my time) -  unselfishly by remembering there are others who are more in need than I am, by first dealing with myself  before I reach out to help others; and d) singing - gospel music always lifts my spirits and by sharing this gift with others once I am uplifted. This spiritual enlightening has been a blessing in all that I continue to do as I share my anointing with others.”  Chaplain Dawn B.

 

"I want to thank Dr. Moody for teaching mental health through the Tier I process.  I first began to going to Dr. Moody for marital counseling a few months ago.  My wife and I were separated after 27 years of marriage and the separation devastated me.  Dr. Moody introduced me to his Tier I teaching which focuses a person on who they are in Christ.  And when you know who you are in Christ, you will then be able to deal with others and situations in a healthy way.  Tier I also allows you to accept the consequences of life and get grounded knowing that God is in control, that nothing is happening without His knowledge, and that I will be able to handle any situation that comes up in my life.  So, Tier I has helped me take the focus off of myself and putting it back on Christ.  Lastly, after 4 months of separation, my wife and I will be getting back together again.  Thanks Dr. Moody for teaching me Tier I concepts.  It has changed my life and saved my marriage."  James & Tara B.

 

"Dr. Moody’s Tier 1 model enabled me to reflect on self and begin the healing process for a broken spirit and broken soul. Tier 1 taught me how to take accountability for my actions without blaming others for my pain and suffering. There is no wrong in acknowledging pain, but being bound and crippled by it can be toxic.  I have experienced a tremendous amount of heartache as a result of failed relationships in my life. However, learning to forgive those who have “hurt” me helped to improve my mental health. Tier 1 helped me to stand up for myself and to no longer allow people to treat me how they chose to. I have the power to set the standard for how I am to be treated. In doing this I was able to get closer with God. As a result of the CGCC Discipleship Model, I have grown incredibly. I am thankful for Dr. Moody’s guidance; he is truly a blessing to me and my family."  Zakiya S.

 

"For a long time I struggled with learning how to define myself as a person. Having an identity is something I've always wanted. One that I feel authentically suites me. As of recently, Dr. Moody's teachings on Tier 1 have led to me starting to define myself as a Tier 1 Man. A man who takes care of himself in order to better care for others (Tier 2)."  Profit S.

"I remember lying on my bed as the tears rolled down my face and the only words I could muster up to say was Lord, Help me.  I was tired of living like this.  Tired of trying to make my husband do what I think he needed to do.  I was tired of having arguments and angry outbursts.  I was tired of being an enabler. I needed relief and I needed it fast. I was mentally drained, physically run down and completely exhausted. I was literally walking around in a fog. It was enough to make me lose the little bit of my mind I had left.  There were times, I felt like the life was being choked out of me.  Satan was so busy trying to rip my marriage apart and all I wanted to do was prevent that from happening. Sigh, in my head, I could hear Dr. Moody’s voice telling me Tier 1. Stay in Tier 1! You are not in Tier 1.  I guess you can figure out, I had a hard time doing “self”.  I was so use to thinking about what he was thinking or how he would respond to this or that.  It wasn’t easy for someone like me who lived life always trying to prevent the bottom from falling out from underneath them. As I prayed God showed me I needed to get out of my own way, so he could fix it.  By letting go and letting God. I was able to live again. I could have peace by leaving the heavy stuff to the Lord and doing what I needed to do for myself.  Each day it got easier to do “self”. I was able to let go of the enabling qualities that I had picked up along the way and just left it to the Almighty. I was able to breathe again. I was able to smile again and in those moments when I felt weak and began to worry. I prayed harder and God gave me peace and kept me from trying to control every situation.  Tier 1 allowed me to have peace while living in the madness. I had to take care of “self” first in order to be good for anyone else. You can do it, Dr. Moody would say and he was right, I did. God is restoring my marriage and God is restoring me. Tier 1 saved my life!"    LaFonda & Renold F.
