Six pillars that shape your discipleship journey
Biblical Teaching
Engage in approximately eight hours of in-depth biblical teaching each week, with a curriculum that spans both the Old and New Testaments. You’ll study Scripture and gain a greater understanding and love for the Word of God.
Evangelism & Outreach
This aspect of the school focuses on proclaiming the gospel in our city and workplaces. It includes connecting with local churches and believers to actively share Christ with the community.
A Life of Prayer
You will spend multiple hours each week in prayer and worship. We believe this is essential in the life of a disciple of Christ!
Cultivate
This facet of the school includes multiple expressions: engaging in one-on-one and small group discipleship, practical life skills, leadership development, and team-building activities.
Biblical Community
We believe discipleship happens in the everyday moments of life. You will live in community with fellow students, sharing day-to-day life, growing together, and learning to cultivate Christlike relationships.
International Missions
Your year with us will culminate in a 10-week overseas mission trip, ministering the gospel in a cross-cultural setting at one of our established ministry locations.
