devotions and spiritual gifts
David “it was only when i began to open up every part of my life to other christians that esus was able
seriously to get to grips with me. i grew up spiritually a huge amount during the training year and gained a number of very valuable friends and deeper relationships.
the modern esus army training year involves practical discipling within a community lifestyle to equip you to be fruitful in your christian walk and witness. it offers a unique opportunity for you to stay in a esus fellowship community house for up to a year, being coached to live out a full-on christian faith.

training year
GODLY CHARACTER IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN GIFTING IN OUR SERVICE FOR JESUS AND THIS TRAINING YEAR BUILDS STRONG CHARACTER THROUGH ITS PROGRAMME OF ACTIVE EQUIPPING. character in overcoming fears of honesty and transparency in relationships.
character in working with outreach teams sharing your faith with others.
character in breaking through into new areas of ministry activity.
character in living a simple, sacrificial lifestyle.
character in rising to challenges and opportunities to show love in action.
We are looking to find and release future leaders for building the church of Jesus. Part of the training will involve some study and devotion, but the bulk of it is a ‘hands on’ programme of activity designed to stretch you, preparing you for greater responsibility in church life. This includes a weekly mentoring time in which you will follow a schedule of spiritual and practical challenges.
miriam “I was pleased with the weekly mentoring. I was able to ask questions and go deeper as I learned to receive as well as give. I grew in love because every day I was challenged to go beyond myself.”
