| Why I went to Kerala |
The DTS is six months that can change your life! It's designed
intentionally to help you to know God better, to develop personal
character, and then to live a lifestyle of making God known to
others. It aims to help you exercise faith while cultivating a
living, intimate relationship with God and identifying your unique
gifts and life callings. The DTS is also a great time to make new friends from around the world as you live and learn together in community. Cross-cultural exposure and global awareness are special emphases during the school, preparing you to go and "make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19). DTS is only the beginning.
It is the entry way into further involvement with YWAM, qualifying you for hundreds of staff opportunities and many other YWAM training programs. Join us for the adventure of a lifetime! You will never be the same again.

Purpose and Outcomes of DTS
- To GATHER and CHALLENGE people to worship, listen to
and obey God, releasing them (in the context of the DTS) to serve
through evangelism, intercession, acts of compassion and other
expressions of God's heart for the world, possibly even pioneering new
ministries.
- To INSPIRE and CULTIVATE growth in one's relationship
with God resulting in Christ like character, which is based on a solid
Biblical foundation, the work of the Holy Spirit and the personal
application of Biblical truth, especially concerning God's Character,
the Cross and empowering Grace.
- To SHARPEN one's ability to relate to, learn from and work
with people, including those of different cultures, personalities and
perspectives.
- To further EQUIP each one to serve God's purposes either in
or outside of YWAM Family of Ministries, strengthening a commitment to
reach the lost, especially the unreached, to care for the poor, and to
influence all areas of society.
- To IMPART the vision and foundational values of Youth With A Mission International as well as that of the host operating location and to provide information regarding a variety of opportunities for service.
Lecture phase:
The 12 week lecture phase will include various types of learning
opportunities. The course content will be given through formal
lecture times, small group discussions, assignments, worship &
intercession times, living together with others in community, work
duties, social events, and more. Opportunity will be given to you to
learn through creative and diverse ways. Emphases will be placed on
how to practically apply what you are learning through
Outreach Phase:
During 8 weeks of outreach phase students get to take the gospel to the
nations. As you apply the things you have learned during the
lectures, you will get a chance to see the transforming power of
God’s love first hand not only in your own life but in the lives
many others around the world.
