A Practitioner is not merely a body of knowledge, but rather a state of consciousness that realizes oneness with the Infinite. Dedicated to first demonstrating the New Thought/Ageless Wisdom principles within their own life, a Practitioner then serves as a therapeutic agent of the Spirit for the upliftment of anyone who requests healing of body, mind and spirit.

Spiritual Education for Conscious Living, Leadership & Service
Agape University is a global spiritual education community devoted to awakening consciousness, cultivating spiritual maturity, and preparing individuals to live and serve from the deepest truth of who they are.
Rooted in the teachings of Rev. Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith and the New Thought lineage, Agape University offers transformative courses, cohort-based programs, and practitioner training designed to support personal awakening, spiritual embodiment, and conscious leadership.
In 2026, Agape University is expanding and refining its offerings to better serve students at every stage of their spiritual journey—from those exploring foundational practices to those called to serve as Professional Practitioners.
What’s New in 2026
Beginning in 2026, in addition to our core transformational courses, Agape University is introducing a streamlined, cohort-based prerequisite pathway for students who feel called to apply to the Professional Practitioner Studies Program (PPSP).
This new structure provides:
-
Greater clarity for students to understand the full range of Agape University offerings and participate at the level that aligns with their calling, curiosity, and capacity
-
Stronger preparation for Practitioner Studies
-
More spaciousness for new and expanded classes
-
A unified educational pathway aligned with Agape’s mission and lineage

Agape University courses are designed to tap into the genius within. Our courses incorporate deep wisdom teachings, emerging sciences, mystical explorations, prayer, visioning, meditation, experiential activities, and transformational processes, as well as tools and strategies for moving beyond our current paradigm and belief systems.
Students are encouraged to incorporate these teachings into their lives through daily practice.
Next Steps: Advanced Spiritual Training
For students ready to move forward with their spiritual development and expansion, Agape University is pleased to offer advanced spiritual training in these programs: the Foundations Program and the Professional Practitioner Studies Program (PPSP). These programs are designed to prepare students to serve within the Agape community and in all areas of life. Both programs provide students with the opportunity to integrate New Thought/Ageless Wisdom teachings into their Life Structures and interactions with others.
After successful completion of both programs, students have the option to participate in the beloved community as spiritual counselors, leaders and educational facilitators. This training prepares students to be initiated into the Agape Sacred Order of Practitioner Core as licensed spiritual counselors. Agape Licensed Spiritual Practitioners (ALSP) are the healing arm of the Agape International Spiritual Center, dedicated to providing support to Agape ministers, volunteers, and congregants.
ALSP: A Calling, Not a Credential
The Professional Practitioner Studies Program is for those who feel an inner yes, deep yearning to live their spirituality consciously, consistently, and in service to others.
This is a path of:
-
Devotion
-
Responsibility
-
Humility
-
Courage
-
Love in action
For those who feel called, PPSP offers the training, support, and sacred container to answer that call with clarity and integrity.
The next step toward practitioner training is enrollment in the Foundations Program. After completing the Foundations Program, students are eligible to apply to the Professional Practitioner Studies Program
