Are you seeking to grow deeper in your relationship with God? Do you long for unreached people groups to have the opportunity to hear the gospel message? If you have answered yes to either of those questions Beyond Borders DTS is for you!
A DTS (Disciple training school) is a time set apart for God to let Him captivate your heart and to give you a new passion for Him and His kingdom. It is an intensive residential training course involving 12 weeks of teaching and 12 weeks of outreach in various locations.
This DTS puts an accent on cultural diversity and the heart of God for the nations, especially those who have never heard the good news. Our goal is to prepare students to respond to the call of God to go into world and make disciples of all nations.
It will also gives you an opportunity to discover your passions and your part in God’s purposes for the world. It is for those who long to follow Jesus in new ways with a different perspective.
“After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb…” Rev. 7:9
The first part of the school, called the lecture phase, lasts 12 weeks and is based in the picturesque town of Saint-Paul- Trois-Châteaux, France.
