Reach School is a 4-month school focused on empowering people to walk in their identity and boldly share the good news of Jesus Christ. This school will equip you to share the gospel and launch outreaches through your local church. The school is rooted in prayer, the scriptures and the presence of God. Our classes will be focused on simple teachings, activities and assignments that will help you grow.
At the end of this school each leader will not only know how to better impact people in their spheres of influence but will also be better equipped to lead an outreach-based ministry through their local church. These leaders will be raised up as local evangelists to help equip their local churches for the work of ministry. Not only will each student grow but we believe the local churches will grow in numbers as their members attend this school and implement our training.
