A trip like no other

When a follower of Jesus chooses to live with purpose, the journey ahead opens wide; full of calling, adventure, and the unknown. But stepping into that kind of life can raise big questions: What’s next? How do I hear God’s voice? How do I follow Him with everything I’ve got?

Endurance DTS is your path forward.

This immersive 5-month experience is built for those who want to grow deeper with God. Taking what you learn in the classroom out on the trail, around the fire, and in the heart of creation. Through outdoor challenges, backcountry experiences, and powerful teaching, you'll learn to walk with God in every setting, remote, rugged, or routine.

But transformation doesn’t stop with you. As you're poured into, you'll also be trained to pour out, equipped to bring the Gospel to the hard-to-reach places of the world, where few are willing to go. From mountain trails to isolated villages, you'll carry the hope of Jesus where it’s needed most.

Endurance DTS is more than a school. It’s a proving ground where faith grows strong, community runs deep, and the wilderness becomes your classroom for the Great Commission.

What You’ll get out of this.

Lecture Phase - Learn it and Live it

Each week of the Lecture Phase introduces a key theme of following Jesus and then immediately invites you to practice it. You’ll be challenged to apply what you’re learning in real time, through daily rhythms of worship, community, outreach, and personal reflection.

Each week includes:

Live teachings from experienced missionaries, pastors, and leaders from around the world
Workshops and team activities that drive the message deeper
Daily spiritual disciplines like journaling, intercession, and Bible meditation
Community feedback and mentoring, so growth isn’t done alone

Each week builds on the last like a layered foundation that grows stronger as you go. And by the end of Lecture Phase, you will be walking out your faith confidently, with a community around you and the Holy Spirit within you.

endurance - Push your limits and faith

This is where things level up from a regular Discipleship Training School. Endurance DTS is set on help you take your faith to the mountains, the rivers, and the trail. You’ll hike with everything on your back, worship under open skies, and discover what it means to depend on God when things get uncomfortable.

This is NOT just an adventure, this is an intentional time of growth where we bring you out of the world of distractions around you to help the voice of God becomes clearer.

Here’s what makes Endurance DTS stand out from the rest:

Four week-long outdoor expeditions - Take your learning into the outdoors, engaging in lecture, worship and prayer around campfires, on the trail and in the wilderness.
Week-long rock climbing trip - Enjoy a week of climbing while you learn to celebrate and cheer on your classmates and take opportunities to share the Gospel in an outdoor setting.
Wilderness Advanced First Aid (WAFA) certification - a 4-day intensive led by Aerie Backcountry Medicine experts that equips you with emergency skills for backcountry settings and mission fields alike.

In the outdoors and in the nations, you'll be tested in the best kind of way. You’ll lead, follow, pray, sweat, laugh, and probably get your socks soaked. But you’ll come out of it stronger in your faith, more connected to the people around you, and more confident in your identity.

After 3 months of being filled up, it's time to pour out. The Outreach Phase is a cross-cultural missions experience where you and your team will live out what you’ve learned as a team.

Boldly sharing the Gospel with everyone from first time listeners, to former believers
Serving local churches and ministries in tangible, practical ways as Jesus did
Stepping into leadership, often in unpredictable environments with the support of your team behind you
Letting the Holy Spirit lead, moment by moment remembering that everything we do comes from Him

This is the start of a lifestyle of dependence, humility, and love. Expect long travel days, deep relationships, unexpected miracles, and practical impact. The world is full of people waiting, and you’re being sent to them.
