This is a thorough training in the complex and unique chemistry essential oils, based on the works of Dr. David Stewart (CARE’s founder), including his internationally known book Chemistry of Essential Oils Made Simple: God’s Love Manifest in Molecules.

Anthony Stewart asked ChatGPT to create a photo of someone on a massage table receiving a Raindrop Technique with essential oils. It was a decent photo all in all, but the picture raises a few questions 🤔🤣😂

This is a Level 2 CARE Class, and usually taken by students who have already attended CARE's Level 1 History of Anointing (Healing Oils of the Bible) Class, but all are welcome!

Advanced Bible Oils is a wonderful in-depth review of essential oils and practices of the ancient Hebrews and early Christians in scripture. This class delves even deeper into Biblical oils than our Level 1 History of Anointing (2 hours). This advanced class is 8 hours (one day) and we will also discuss the history of the Bible and learn how to study scripture in such a way that it will enrich your experience. As part of this class we will go through the entire History of Anointing and Laying on of Hands (HAL; formerly known as Healing Oils of the Bible) class as presented by CARE along with Q and A. The primary focus of this class is to educate CARE Instructors on how to teach HAL, but there is much more information presented that is useful to anyone who has an interest in the Bible and essential oils.

Instructor: Anthony Stewart, FCCI, Exec Director of CARE (son of Dr. David Stewart)

Advanced Bible Oils is approved for 8 Continuing Education Hours through NCBTMB when attended in person. This is not available for virtual students.

Registration is required, and can be completed online. See the link in the comments below, or visit the calendar on our website.
This class is limited to the first 20 students who register.
