kingdom assignment
WHY ETD?
Equipped To Deliver, (ETD) is our signature training course designed for those in ministry who are ready to break free from Glossophobia (the fear of public speaking) and fully commit to their kingdom assignment. Fear and doubt are barriers, strongholds that have hindered many who are called, anointed, and appointed to use their VOICE to release the Word of the Lord, but now IT'S TIME TO GET EQUIPPED AND WALK IN FREEDOM!
​
To "Get Equipped" means to provide one with what one needs for a specific purpose. This course gives students a solid understanding of the relationship between public ministry and public speaking from a sound, biblical perspective. We set a strong foundation by introducing fundamental principles of human communication and presentation development. ETD addresses common communication problems people in ministry experience as public speakers and provides strategic and rewarding solutions to excel as equipped presenters.
WE BRIDGE THE GAP BETWEEN CONFIDENCE AND COMPETENCE!
We developed ETD using a transformational approach with hands-on training to guide you throughout this process. Our framework and methods are proven to increase your self-confidence, boldness, knowledge, and understanding of public ministry, and human communication overall.
Transformation is what we're after; therefore, ETD will challenge you to be intentional about your public speaking development. If you give your all to this process, we are confident you will experience favorable results.
​
This is an online, pre-recorded course to take at your own pace.

"Coach Naimah Ward was sensational and was nothing short of amazing throughout the entire course. She was attentive to every question, concern, or challenge I had. Watching her teach with such passion and confidence gave me assurance. I felt safe and comfortable being open and learning from her. She helped me identify the root of what was keeping me from evolving effectively in public speaking. Taking the “Equipped To Deliver” course was an eye-opener for me… it has done more than what I signed up for. If you are someone or know someone who feels uneasy, uncomfortable, and fears any sort of public speaking… No matter what level you find yourself in, this course will help you with the knowledge and confidence to help you move forward efficiently. I am so happy I took this course with Coach Naimah. She was truly a blessing and I highly recommend Equipped To Deliver!" - Emma Dovral
I enrolled in the "Equipped to Deliver" course, thinking my fear of public speaking would improve. "Equipped to Deliver" has done more than that!!! This course was definitely ordained by God, and a passion of Naimah, to see others the way God sees them and to thrust you into your God-given destiny! This course has literally changed my life!!!! Before this course, I felt that I had no voice, no self-confidence, and truly was losing my faith in God. Because of the stretching, the assignments that made you dig deep to address why you feel the way you feel, and the support from Naimah, including my class cohorts - this has changed. I am more confident in the voice that God has given me. This course is a LIFE CHANGER and I highly recommend that you enroll in this course and invest in YOU! - Jen Sanders
Thank you, Pastor Naimah, for this amazing course, Equipped To Deliver. I really enjoyed the class even though obstacles tried to get in my way, but thank God we made it through the course! To God be all the Glory. I want to give honor to you for the patience you had with me throughout this course. I tell you, the Lord has really anointed you to bring out the best in people, to help them discover their hidden talents, and to guide them through the process of overcoming the fear of public speaking. I thank God because you have helped me tremendously! I am so honored that the Lord made a way for me to be in this class. ​ I enrolled in the course because of my fear of public speaking. When I stood behind the pulpit to speak, I would close my eyes because I felt uncomfortable and insecure. I felt like people judged me. Thank you, Pastor Naimah, for allowing the Lord to use you to help me bring out what He has already put inside of me. I pray that the Lord continues to open doors for you to help people bring out what He has put inside of them and to release the fear and doubt they have within themselves.​ Those in ministry who fear public speaking or desire to increase their communication skills should take this course, Equipped To Deliver! - Vera Raysor
The "Equipped to Deliver" course is exceptional. I enrolled in this class wanting to learn how to organize and communicate revelation about God’s Word. I received so much more than that. Pastor Naimah Ward passionately instilled confidence in me about how God has given me the ability to annihilate fear once and for all! Pastor Naimah is truly invested in growth as a communicator. Every week and every lesson, I grew in confidence in communicating techniques and was challenged to engage in group activities. This course has valuable lessons, that not only improve your communication skills but also will improve your leadership skills. If you want to finally overcome the fear of speaking, start your journey here! - Tanisha Young
My first encounter with Pastor Naimah Ward was not a coincidence, it was designed by God. The course “Equipped to Deliver” has given me great tools to become better at public speaking. Pastor Ward is a God-fearing woman and a phenomenal teacher! She is passionate about her work and brings forth her knowledge and experience with holy boldness. She pours into us throughout the course and continues to do so by encouraging us to use what we have learned. I am very happy I enrolled in this course and would recommend it to all! Thank you, Pastor Ward!!! - Gloria McKenzie
Taking this course has helped me to understand the importance of knowing your audience and how to become equipped to effectively communicate your thoughts in a manner that engages and captures the attention of your audience! I never knew this was a skill that could be taught and learned! Naimah is a great teacher and speaker! The course was engaging and fun!!!I have learned how to be prepared before I speak, in a manner that captivates my audience! - Rev. Ava Matthews
I thoroughly enjoyed taking the "Equipped To Deliver" course! It was life-changing for me! Week by week I experienced growth and transformation through the challenges. The challenges asked me questions that caused me to discover false beliefs I was holding on to. The challenges pushed me out of my comfort zone. The course helped me see the importance of being prepared and taught me how to prepare before speaking. I learned to sit and wait on God to speak. I experienced deliverance from false beliefs and fear. I experienced transformation, especially in the area of confidence. The lessons I learned are endless and I continue to glean from them now. Pastor Naimah poured into us during the course and continues to do so by encouraging us to use what we learned.
I highly recommend investing in your growth by taking the "Equipped To Deliver" course. - Felicia Jones
From the very 1st session, I couldn’t wait to get to the next session and surely didn’t want this class to come to an end when it did! This class, “Equipped to Deliver,” blessed me real good!! Equipped to Deliver first helped me identify the root of what was stopping me from walking in my purpose — using my voice to bring God glory. During this class, those things were not only identified but uprooted as I heard the Word of the Lord and began to meditate on it after class. The homework assignments were so intentional and purposeful in getting us to where we needed to be. Throughout this journey, we put into practice what was taught. Now I can speak God’s word with confidence and boldness knowing that He will speak through me as I open my mouth. Having Pastor Naimah as our teacher was a blessing in and of itself. She took so much time to connect with us in and out of the class. I recommend this class, Equipped to Deliver, for anyone who believes fear is holding them back from speaking the Word of the Lord! - Sherri Taylor
