Testimonial
–Amber Huffman
“With the skills I’ve learned in my concentration in teaching, combined with the hands-on experience I’ve gained from my praxis in Brazil, I feel equipped to take what I’ve learned to the nations. The ability to teach music is a door to administering the gospel to the lost, as well as a door to planting houses of prayer in all parts of the earth- and I plan to use what I’ve gained from studying at IHOPU for the last four years to do both, starting in the nation of Bolivia.“
