Explore a focus.
We believe the Lord has gifted us with specific passions and interests.
When you sign up for DTS, you can choose which focus you would like to enroll in so that during your training phase, you’ll receive targeted training a couple of hours a week during your Focus Time.
The Messenger Focus is designed to develop and train leaders to have the lifestyle, heart posture, and voice of a Biblical messenger. We believe that being a true messenger means living for something more than yourself, by meeting the needs of the world through the love and truth of Jesus.
Become the hands and feet of Jesus.
