And that\u2019s\nwhat Congressman Lamborn did\u2014he chose to recognize Charis Bible College. So, it\nwas a great <em>honor<\/em> to have him to do\nthat.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nrecord was printed, framed, and then presented to Andrew and Jamie Wommack by\nJeff Anderson, Lamborn\u2019s Senior\nFaith Advisor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read this excerpt from the Congressional\nRecord by Lamborn:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cI am pleased to honor the 25th Anniversary of Charis Bible College. It is nothing short of miraculous to observe the growth that has taken place within the past quarter-century. Charis was founded as Colorado Bible College in 1994 and was originally located in Colorado Springs. Charis has grown from its first graduating class of 33 people in 1996, to include 26 campuses in the United States and 22 international locations.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked about why Representative\nLamborn chose to honor Charis in this way, Harris said, \u201cIt happened because of\nthe strengthening relationship that we have with Congressman Doug Lamborn. He\nhas been a guest on our Truth &amp; Liberty Coalition Live Cast and has\nwelcomed our participation in a meeting to discuss pro-life issues. At our In\nGod We Trust Rally, he prepared a video message that we presented. . . . Congressman\nLamborn heard about our twenty-fifth anniversary, so he took the initiative to\nextend that honor to Charis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What a blessing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Christians stand for\nrighteousness, they will find that they\u2019re not alone. Others, even those in\npositions of power, will take notice and stand with them. Thanks go to Doug\nLamborn who was willing to acknowledge all that God is doing through Charis\nBible College! Here is another selection from the Congressional Record that was\nread before the House of Representatives, made up of 435 members:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cIn my district, the Charis campus provides multiple programs of Bible-based education including a practical government degree. It also hosts faith-based events throughout the year with discussions on Christian art, culture, and politics. Charis Bible College was created by Andrew Wommack, who has been a pioneer in Christian education and ministry. His vision to have men and women steeped in scripture has changed countless lives in my district and around the world.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, we are making America godly again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.awmi.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Congressional-Record-from-Cong-Doug-Lamborn-blog-image-791x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Congressional record awarded to Charis Bible College\" class=\"wp-image-1012606\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"791\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.awmi.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Congressional-Record-from-Cong-Doug-Lamborn-blog-image-1-791x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1013347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.awmi.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Congressional-Record-from-Cong-Doug-Lamborn-blog-image-1-791x1024.jpg 791w, https:\/\/www.awmi.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Congressional-Record-from-Cong-Doug-Lamborn-blog-image-1-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/www.awmi.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Congressional-Record-from-Cong-Doug-Lamborn-blog-image-1-768x994.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.awmi.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Congressional-Record-from-Cong-Doug-Lamborn-blog-image-1-1187x1536.jpg 1187w, https:\/\/www.awmi.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Congressional-Record-from-Cong-Doug-Lamborn-blog-image-1-1583x2048.jpg 1583w, https:\/\/www.awmi.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Congressional-Record-from-Cong-Doug-Lamborn-blog-image-1.jpg 1700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" \/><figcaption> Congressional record awarded to Charis Bible College<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In celebration of Charis Bible College\u2019s twenty-fifth anniversary, U.S. Representative Doug Lamborn prepared and read an acknowledgement into the Congressional Record on the floor of the House of Representatives. \u201cIt\u2019s&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1013346,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[278,208],"tags":[704,505,4477,4479,4478,4480],"class_list":["post-1012601","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-news","tag-charis","tag-charis-bible-college","tag-congressional-record","tag-congressman-doug-lamborn","tag-house-of-representatives","tag-jeff-anderson"],"acf":[],"gutentor_comment":0,"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.8 (Yoast SEO v26.8) -
