Spiritual Gifts & Battle Course at Orama

Are you seeking to deepen your faith, understand your spiritual gifts, and engage in the spiritual battle we all face? The upcoming Spiritual Gifts & Battle Course at Orama offers a unique opportunity to explore these themes in a stunning, remote setting. From 14th to 18th April 2025, participants will gather at Orama on Great Barrier Island for an immersive learning experience led by Fraser and Dale Hardy, seasoned leaders in church planting and apostolic ministry. Whether you attend in person or join online, this course is designed to equip and empower you on your discipleship journey.

Meet the Speakers, Fraser & Dale Hardy

Based in Kirikiriroa (Hamilton), Fraser and Dale provide guidance, accountability, and encouragement to churches throughout New Zealand.

Their leadership has profoundly impacted communities across New Zealand, and they are passionate about helping others discover, develop, and use their spiritual gifts to strengthen their faith and serve others effectively.

What to Expect from the Spiritual Gifts & Battle Course

The Spiritual Gifts & Battle Course at Orama is designed to help participants understand the biblical foundation of spiritual gifts, how they function, and their role in engaging in spiritual warfare. Participants will explore the biblical foundation of spiritual gifts and spiritual warfare, identifying and activating spiritual gifts, engaging in spiritual warfare with faith and confidence and practical exercises and guided teachings.


As John Mark Comer highlights in his book Live No Lies:

“We are at war. Not with a foreign government or domestic terrorists or a creepy new artificial intelligence hell-bent on taking over the world. No, it’s a war we feel deep inside our own chests: we are at war with lies… The choice is not whether to fight or not fight, but whether we win or surrender.”

The Bible makes it clear that this battle is real, and we have been given spiritual gifts as weapons to fight it. This five-day course will delve into these gifts, their practical application, and how to function in them with confidence and faith.

Why Attend at Orama?

Attending the Spiritual Gifts & Battle Course in person offers the opportunity to unplug from daily distractions and immerse yourself in an environment designed for spiritual growth. Located on Great Barrier Island, Orama is a haven of peace, natural beauty, and spiritual renewal. Enjoy delicious, chef-prepared meals made with fresh, quality ingredients and comfortable accommodation where you can relax and unwind during your stay.

Benefits of Attending In Person

  • Fellowship & Community: Connect with like-minded believers, share experiences, and grow together in faith.

  • Unplug & Recharge: Step away from technology, work, and the busyness of life to focus on spiritual development.

  • Connect with the Creator: Surrounded by the beauty of God’s creation, experience a deeper sense of His presence.

  • Practical Ministry: Hands-on sessions and interactive discussions enhance learning and application.

For those who cannot make it in person, the online format ensures you can still engage fully with the course content and benefit from the teaching and discussions.
