Course Overview
The world is searching for hope, truth, and connection… and we have a unique opportunity to introduce the hope, truth, and connection of Christ to a dying world. Your DTS journey helped you grow in your relationship with Jesus, discover your calling, and take your first steps in missions or discipleship. But graduation isn’t the finish line, it was just the beginning.
Messenger Training School is the next stage of the race, where you take that foundation and equip yourself to live as a Messenger of the Gospel led by the Holy Spirit with confidence, skill, and practical experience.
You have the hope, truth and life of Jesus Christ inside of you today. Take your love for Jesus and learn to share it boldly… anywhere God sends you!

advanced missions training
Take eleven weeks to train and learn from experienced missionaries from around the world. We curate a list of teachers from a variety of ministry backgrounds. From inner city preachers, to missionaries working in Islamic and Hindu cultures, they will impart their skills, heart and lessons to you.
You’ll be challenged to apply what you’re learning in real time, through daily practices of evangelism, worship, community discipleship, and personal reflection.
1 stateside outreach
After your lecture phase, you and your team will travel to an urban area of the United States to practice evangelism and mercy ministries for 2 weeks
Why do we start with a stateside outreach? While our international outreaches are highly important to use, we want to make sure that our students experience full time stateside outreaches as many of our students continue on in ministry in the United States and we want you to be equipped to share the Gospel everywhere you go.
Boldly sharing the Gospel with everyone from first time listeners, to former believers
Serving local ministries and people in need in tangible, practical ways as Jesus did
Stepping into leadership in preparation for your international outreach
Letting the Holy Spirit lead, moment by moment remembering that everything we do comes from Him
2 international outreach
Following your two week outreach in the United States, you and your team will travel to the outreach location that you chose. We can’t tell you what your outreach will entail, because you and your team are the ones designing it all. With assistance from your Outreach Coaches, you will engage in international missions like never before. We limit our curation of the outreaches so that you and your team can practice hearing God’s voice and obeying.
Everything in the Stateside Outreach, as well as….
Communicate with international contacts developing relationships and serving the needs of your outreach location
Manage your teams outreach budget, with assistance from your outreach coaches to make sure that your team is healthy, strategic and wise with finances
Letting the Holy Spirit lead, moment by moment remembering that everything we do comes from Him
