ABOUT

A Discipleship Training School is all about knowing God more and making him known. It’s an opportunity to meet with God in a unique, dynamic and transformational way. DTS includes a 3 month lecture phase and a 3 month outreach overseas. Each week of the lecture phase, local and international speakers focus on topics such as: the fatherheart of God, forgiveness and repentance, the nature and character of God, missions, hearing God's voice and intercession. As a MediaReach DTS, we will also spotlight issues of worldview, creativity and Christlike communication throughout the school as well.

With YWAM training it’s all about personal application, not just amassing knowledge, it’s about how does this truth affect the way I live my life? The DTS includes not only classroom lectures, but regular times of worship and prayer, small group discussion, one-on-one discipleship, hands-on serving on base, weekly outreach in the city... and lots of fun community life! How about a crazy 200 person video scavenger hunt through Perth city or a hike through the Aussie bush at a national park?

As for outreach, imagine using your gifts and passion for media to creatively share God’s love with people. How about not only documenting but getting involved first hand in what God is doing in bringing transformation to a megacity? How about linking with others who are using media to reach the nations? Get introduced to an array of opportunities to use your gifts for God! It’s about sharing the love of Christ with people through our lives and through the “voices” of the gifts God’s given us.

So whether you’re a graphic designer, a photographer, a journalist, a film buff, an IT whiz, a screenwriter, whatever… just someone with a love for creative communication… if you’re passionate about knowing God more and making him known creatively, MediaReach DTS may be just your thing! Whether your camera is a $3 disposable or the latest digital SLR, whether you're hopeless at checking your e-mail or whether you're coding in your sleep, whether you've been a Christian a month or a lifetime, it’s not about skills or qualifications, it’s about growing with God and letting him use you as a voice to the nations. All experience and skill backgrounds welcome!

Expect to encounter God, expect to be challenged and encouraged, expect to be used by God!
