Values

Celebrate Discipleship

We focus on expository preaching, Christ-centered worship, and intentional, word-centered discipleship.

  • Ministers in Training (MIT) – We develop church leaders and laborers through our intentional Ministers in Training curriculum.
  •  Ministry Residences – We prepare and equip future missionaries and church-planters through residency programs.
  • Seasonal Intensives – We equip our family members to live a life devoted to Christ through learning intensives that cover culturally relevant topics.
