Rachel and Ian Carroll

This course holds nothing back. Ian is deeply generous, experienced in the seer lifestyle and humble in all the teachings. I would recommend the course to anyone seeking to walk with the wise in this area and those hungry to discover the goodness of God all around. He helps create a safe space to be curious and courageous! Comfort zones were challenged and Ian addresses common fears with a kind strength and help on how to keep Christ at the centre of all we do. Plus, the Irish accent and good humour helps a lot! I plan to go through the material again and again and thankful to have it as a resource.

This course exceeded my expectations! I was fully prepared to go a little deeper in what I already knew, but not too much deeper, since I secretly suspected I had already reached the ceiling of my "seeing" abilities. I was in for a surprise. My Christian upbringing included a very real sense of the unseen realm. I heard stories of mystics alongside stories of martyrs, prophets and healing evangelists as equal to Bible heroes. In my mind, the Bible never stopped being written. I fully believed in signs and wonders, in people being able to see the unseen. It was common to have a prayer meeting at our house when someone would see an angel show up or see a vision or burst out in spontaneous prophecy. As I grew in the Lord, I began to see and hear more and more. By the time I was in junior high, I didn’t know what prayer was unless I saw Him when I spoke to Him and heard Him speak back to me. To me that became the meaning of prayer. By high school, I found an escape in Heaven. I called it my secret place. I easily escaped “reality” to my other reality where I worked on my secret garden and spent time with Jesus and we talked and rested before coming back to this reality. As an adult, I found myself in a comfortable relationship with Father, Jesus and Holy Spirit. Ceilings of what I believed solidified, boundaries of how far I was willing to go took their place and the foundation I stood on – definitely could not be shaken. When I first walked into Greater Chicago Church where Ian and Rachel were pastors at that time, 2 things became apparent. One, I firmly believed that people were born with gifts. They were God-given and He would develop them in you when the time is right. If you weren’t born with a gift for seeing, then that’s too bad. Two, it’s extremely important to discern the source. I wasn’t willing to hear from anyone who in my opinion didn’t truly know the Father because that didn’t feel safe. First morning at GCC, Ian began speaking and I instantly recognized my Father’s voice. I decided it was safe to hear what he had to say. As I heard more and more of his stories/teachings, it stretched me: my boundaries fell first day, my foundation was shaky within a few months and my ceiling kept expanding. I had the privilege of hearing Rachel speak soon after that and recognized the voice of Holy Spirit, the very One who was my best friend these many years. Still, I wanted to run far away from what they had to say many times. It was too much. It ironically drew me in and pushed me away all at the same time. A part of me wanted to know the more of God; a part of me got excited that everything was available for everyone and there was so much still unknown – ready to be discovered! Another part of me felt shaky and unsure and scared. What if something sounds New Age-y? Run from it, right? What if this seems off on a tangent from the core body of Christ? Stay on the vine, right? The only thing that kept me coming back is I knew the God inside of them. I recognized His face, His voice and I knew – Him, I could trust. He has never steered me wrong. When this course became available, I had to make a decision. How far was I willing to go? Yes, my ceiling had expanded, but as long as I could keep an eye on it, I was ok with it expanding. I had dipped my toes in the river over the course of the past 3 years in various mystical one-day sessions with Ian and I saw more and more and experienced more and more. But deep inside, I knew, unless I walked into the river and let it sweep me away, I would only ever go so far. So, I gathered all my Christian fears and locked them in a room for safe keeping while I took this course. And God honored that. He seems to appreciate faith. He showed up. I saw Him clearer than before. I heard Him clearer than before. He had conversations with me during meditations. Yes, meditations. And yes, I got to see other fun things like creatures and angels and atmospheres and other things I don’t understand. And at some point, my fears ran out the back door and my ceiling lifted and lifted till I couldn’t see it anymore. I find He doesn’t push us into uncomfortable corners or expect us to run when we’re learning to walk. He leads us gently and is so proud of every step we take. He just asks us to hush those fears enough to hear what He has to say, and just allow a little more room in your boxes so He can take one more step inside. Step by step, you will find one day that the fears are gone, and the boundaries are broken. Since taking the course, I have stepped into greater rest. It’s so much easier to minister from a place of rest. When you see the Father healing someone before you think to pray for them, you skip the whole hard task of praying for a miracle and simply let the person know they are already healed, because you saw the Father healing them. And sure enough, they confirm, they do feel all better. Or how about bringing a group of people to the throne in worship? Start with your usual tricks of Declarative Praise that leads to Intimate Worship, right? Maybe an inspiring Psalm of David to kick things off? Or how about just walking in and seeing Jesus standing by the piano, waiting for you all to get there, excited. That will translate you to the throne room in a sec! Or how about singing the same songs every Sunday but then glancing down and seeing the corner of a glistening white robe gently swaying next to you, so close. That will bring you into the Holy of Holies. All that to say, I highly recommend taking this course. If a part of you wonders if there is more, if a part of you is tired of doing the same thing every day in prayer or every Sunday in church and you wonder to yourself secretly, “is this really all there is to Almighty God?” Perhaps you truly believe that every story in the Bible is pure fact and that a pillar of fire can be leading you by night and you can actually see it, but you don’t know how to get there. How can I actually see what the Father is doing? How can I actually hear what the Father is saying? Take the course, give it a chance and don’t be surprised when you feel a tap on your shoulder and you turn to see no other than the Creator of the Universe simply saying hello.

This course was one of the best investments I have ever made! The teachings are priceless. It is hard to find solid biblically based teachings about the spirit realm that are grounded in the finished victorious work of Jesus. Ian Carroll pours out his love for Jesus and his heart for others to grow in knowing Him in every video and webinar. When you don't know what you don't know, it can be challenging to ask questions to go deeper. I guarantee you that this course will expose you to the more of God, and you will finish the course having been provoked to the wonder and awe of God, and to learn more about what you have access to as a blood-bought child of His. This course has definitely "moved my needle" in my journey and I'm excited to have grown in the freedom to explore His love and ask as many questions as I want of the Father that's delighted in my seeking Him. God will absolutely honor your time and investment, so don't hesitate to sign up!

I absolutely LOVED this course as it has been so transformative in my journey with the Lord! I have been reading books about seeing in the spirit and discerning of spirits but this course is much different as it has given me very practical and tangible tools to actually begin to apply. I love how Ian was able to share about the mystical realm and some of the maybe "weird stuff" that people may not feel comfortable to share yet always keeps it about the King and His kingdom. I have been so encouraged as I have already experienced fruits from taking this course and now have more tools to press into deeper connection with the Lord. The course is so different from other online courses as it felt more intimate with having the zoom group calls where we could ask Ian any questions we had more of a community feel to it. Thanks Ian for your vulnerability in your journey and sharing with us how to step into "the more".

This course has been instrumental in changing my thinking regarding the power that's available to me to partner with heaven to bring the kingdom here. Ian gives practical ways to learn to access the spiritual realm to see what God is doing around me. I highly recommend this course!
