School of Supernatural Life

The School is founded on the belief that Jesus demonstrated the normal Christian life and that as we follow him, we should experience God’s Kingdom break out wherever we go.

We believe every Christian is called to see the sick healed, the spiritually oppressed set free, the lost saved and the broken-hearted whole.

Inspired by schools abroad and similar expressions in this country and a sense of calling from God, the School of Supernatural Life at Hope Church in Wymondham began in 2015. In eight years, it has expanded to both an Evening and Day school. Our aim is to help every student encounter Jesus and be equipped to enrich the Kingdom expression of their local church and radically change society through a naturally supernatural lifestyle of signs and wonders.

Experience a culture of courageous community where excellent bible teaching can be fully activated in your life, at work, in your family, in your community and church.

Teaching will focus on

Your Identity in Christ | Your Intimacy with the Father | Your Impact in the world

The School Team

We have a diverse and gifted team of teachers, worship leaders and group leaders who are part of local churches and all passionate about the Kingdom and the work of the Holy Spirit. We’re all aware that we’re learning as well and there is a strong emphasis on their own vulnerability and challenges as we seek to bring the Kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven.

The team is led by Ben Watkins, Grantley and Floss Watkins, and Matt Heard, supported by other leaders from Hope Church.

What can you expect?

The sessions include an emphasis on Spirit lead worship and enjoying God’s presence as well as practical Bible teaching on how to take the Kingdom of God wherever you go. This will be a very safe environment to step over your fears with acts of faith and much opportunity to experiment and take risks.

We celebrate enthusiastically every courageous step one takes and emphasise that success equals obedience – not necessarily the results of our actions. We also have small groups to enable everyone to question and learn together and to receive and minister to one another. Each term there will be opportunity to take what we have learnt out into the real world as we work with local churches on their streets and in their communities.

Your learning experience can be as extensive and deep as you desire as we have a rich online platform with video & audio teaching, full session notes and activations to download. This means you can watch or listen whenever you want and go back to sessions that you feel particularly drawn to. There is also a comprehensive book and DVD library available for all students.

Transformative! God has been releasing me from bondage, step by step and through The School, every week has been breaking another strand. Year 1 gave me confidence I was a child of God. Year 2 has been breaking down the strongholds and smashing the lies and teaching me to walk tall with God again. – Student Testimony

I think the biggest impact SSL has had on my life is increased confidence in who I am in Christ, increased confidence in the power and authority that I carry within me and increased compassion for those who don’t yet know how good, great and loving is our awesome God. – Student Testimony
