Discipleship Training School

Come be a part of our Discipleship Training School. Are you 17-35 years old? Does amazing Christian teaching and ministry times followed by an overseas outreach sound like a thing for you?

Then join us along with others from around the world to be trained and equipped to go out and fulfil the Great Commission!

DTS is about hearing God's voice, gaining God's heart and using that to reach the nations of the earth.

Lecture Phase:

A DTS Lecture Phase consists of 12 weeks of foundational Christian training that will challenge you to go deeper with God than ever before. With passionate new speakers from around the world each week, you will learn about different topics such as:

• Hearing God's Voice
• The Character of God
• Missions
• Calling and Vision
• Relationships

During Lecture Phase you will be a part of a dynamic youth community and have hands-on practical training working with youth. Develop your skills in reaching un-churched youth, and mentoring Christians from various walks, and be amazed at how much you can connect in just 12 weeks!

Outreach Phase:

Travel to a foreign culture and bring the hope of Christ to the nations!

Spend 2-3 months overseas being Jesus' hands and feet, and making disciples of all nations.

Outreach is a unique opportunity to share your faith and take you deeper with Christ than you've ever imagined.

Join with the school in hearing from God about your overseas outreach location and how to pray for the local people. Experience being a part of a team and watch each other step out in ministry and being a part of another culture.

Recent outreach locations include India, Thailand, Mexico, Fiji, South Africa and more. You never know where God might take you!
