Cleansing Stream University also referred to as CSU Module 1 prepares you to minister by addressing intimacy with the Lord, hearing the voice of God, prophetic and strategic intercession.
Session 1: Preparing to Minister
Presenter: Pastor Gary Howse
The purpose of this Cleansing Stream University training is not only to prepare you to minister effectively to others whom the Lord places in your path, but also to teach us how to position our own hearts before the Lord to allow Him to do a refining work in us.
As we look specifically at the purpose of this session, Preparing to Minister, we’ll focus on the importance of our own intimacy with the Father. To help us do that, we will look at three specific parts that contribute to a growing intimate relationship with God.
Session 2: How to Hear the Voice of God
Presenter: Bishop Joseph Garlington
The issue is not that God doesn’t speak, but that God DOES speak and people don’t notice that He is speaking. He speaks through dreams, pain, and a variety of other ways
Session 3: Prophetic Intercession
Presenter: Pastor Seth Fawcett
As we look specifically at the purpose of this session, Prophetic Intercession, our foundation is that we are speaking what God sees, what God knows, and what God wants and desires for another person, so that they can then speak for themselves. Prophetic Intercession is a ministry of the Holy Spirit through us to other humans.
Session 4: Strategic Intercession
Presenter: Mary Ann Young
Strategic Intercession is a level of prayer and intercession which is often an untapped weapon of warfare but when tapped into, has amazing results in the Spirit realm with breakthrough, advancement of God’s Kingdom, and His blessings poured forth.
Course Curriculum
CLEANSING STREAM UNIVERSITY - INTERCESSION TRAINING
"Cleansing Stream has helped me to grow more spiritually with the Lord. It has helped me to have intimacy with God by having a set time for studying his Word, a special time for worshiping Him, special time in prayer, fasting and a listening ear to hear His Voice. These sessions have (sic) helped me to tune satan out. (Putting him in his place and not listening to his lies.)"

What is the course requirement for Seminar?
You will watch a video/listen to the topic and then complete the workbook lesson associated with that video topic. The degree of investment you make in the topic will help prepare you to go through and answer the questions in your workbook.
Can I download the workbook?
Yes! Physical workbooks can be purchased separately at www.cleansingstream.org.
Will I be able to skip around the lessons/topics? That is will I be able to watch/listen to the topic that I’m most interested in at the time?
The participants receive greater understanding of the Lord, who He is and how to enhance their relationship with Him when the lessons are completed in the order presented. The topic/lessons are meant to be viewed/listened to and completed consecutively.
How long will I have access to the videos and workbooks?
You will have access for one year.
What do I get for completing the Seminar?
You will receive a certificate for completing all the Seminar video’s but remember you get out of this experience what you put into it. Viewing/Listening to the content is good, but doing so, reading your Bible and completing the workbook as well as putting into practice the things the Holy Spirit reveals are how you grow.
If you are a student at Wagner University, please refer to your dean for further details.
Is there any benefit to taking the Seminar more than once?
It has been our experience that those who attend Seminar at least twice and who the second time around, allow the Holy Spirit to challenge them afresh the second time around (as compared to their first time) increase in their spiritual maturity. In our experience about 70% are invited to join Cleansing Stream Discipleship teams in the local church while others among them serve in other ministry capacities.
Is the Cleansing Stream Event a part of the online course?
Event registration is separate. Please visit www.cleansingstream.org/events to register. Online and in-person events are available several times a year.
What do I benefit from taking Cleansing Stream University?
Cleansing Stream University (CSU) is meant for those who desire to go beyond personal healing and deliverance and be equipped for service. Most CSU students are invited to join a Cleansing Stream Discipleship (CSD) team after they have taken the entire Seminar once and participated in the Event twice and are recommended by their pastor/discipleship leader. CSU students not in a Cleansing Stream Discipleship (CSD) team who go through the Seminar twice and/or attend Event more than once find they are better prepared for what lies ahead.
If you are a student at Wagner University, you are required to go through Seminar and participate in one Event before enrolling in the CSU.
What is a Cleansing Stream Discipleship Group?
Cleansing Stream International began as a discipleship ministry with the heart to equip individuals, families and communities with tools of healing, freedom and wholeness and that purpose remains today. Discipleship (CSD) teams are a gathering of Cleansing Stream Seminar alumnae at local churches that gather to continue being discipled, equipped and who welcome accountability. Just as Jesus spent time with the disciples He called; there is no substitute for being in a company of others as one receives ministry instruction. The people easily become a group of men and women who will stand with you in ministry and become part of the fabric of the local church that can serve the church’s prayer needs. Ultimately, CSD groups help us deal with our inevitable blind spots and encourage us to begin to practice and apply what we are learning before we serve at an event.
A CSD team is NOT meant to be an end unto itself (participation is for 1 to 2 years); and is not automatic once retreat and event are completed.
Since it’s a University, how long will it take for me to complete the courses?
CSU is named for University not because it is based on semester or quarter schedule but because it is a dynamic four module advanced ministry training program. It consists of four modules with each one having at least four sessions per module. With diligence, on one’s own, one can complete this in six months. As a CSD team, you may take one year to complete all four modules.
How may I serve while in Cleansing Stream University?
After successfully completing CSU Module 1, and attending event twice as a participant, a student is eligible to serve as an Intercessor at a live-in person Event. After serving twice, and successfully completing CSU Module 2 as an Intercessor, the student is eligible to serve as an Anointer at a live-in person Event.
If you are a student at Wagner University, as a minister of the Lord, you will be eligible to serve as an Intercessor at a live-in person Event after the successful completion of CSU Module 1. After serving first as Intercessor, you are eligible to serve as an Anointer at an ensuing live-in person Event.
What comes after Module 4?
