Fear Doesn't Have To Derail You From Fulfilling Your Purpose
By Tyler Tom on 28 Jul 2023
Is God calling you to step out in faith and apply for a Discipleship Training School (DTS), but fear keeps kicking you in the guts? What if this turns out to be the biggest mistake of your life? What if you're asked to do something way out of your comfort zone? What if you don't fit in? Run out of money? Or fail everyone's expectations? What if you're not really hearing God's voice after all? Something is gnawing away inside your head saying, "I just don't think I can do this!"

Your Identity is in Jesus Christ
By Tyler Tom on 5 May 2023
"Jacob is sharing his testimony of how he said 'yes' to Jesus. Now he is showing how he was baptized to hundreds of students in schools, and even on the streets of Norway and Sweden 🤯."⏤Matheus.
Sometimes it's hard to believe what can happen through the life of just one Discipleship Training School (DTS) student.

A Pack of Cigarettes Led a Man to Jesus
By Carly Snyder on 1 Apr 2023
Our team partnered up with a local church to do evangelism in our city. I was paired with a couple and their eight year old son.
Sometimes it can be difficult in East Texas to share the gospel or pray with people because they give responses like, “No thanks, I don’t want prayer. I prayed on Sunday.” But today was different!

Your Life Matters
By Richard Fish on 10 Mar 2023
"Well, I don't want to kill myself anymore!" That was not the response I was expecting to hear when Mia was asked at a staff meeting interview how going through discipleship training and serving at our mission affected her life! As we applauded her answer, I realized a lot was packed into that simple arresting statement.

Generation Z! Let's GO!
By Duncan Zadrapa on 12 Aug 2022
I was born in 2003, and I am proud to be a part of Gen Z.
I believe Gen Z holds the potential to release a catalytic revival within the body of Christ.
One thing some people like to associate with my generation is that we do nothing but put tide pods in our mouths, and that we are scared of face to face interaction because we are consumed with technology.
Our modern day media tries to sell us a tainted message⏤Just do you, focus on yourself, and do what makes you happy, and now we have a major problem...

The Blessing of Intentional Discipleship
By Abby Bridgeman on 1 Jul 2022
One of the biggest lessons I've learned is the power of intentional discipleship.
When I signed up for my Discipleship Training School (DTS), I assumed because of the name that there would be discipleship involved, but I had no idea how intentional YWAM Tyler is in the discipleship process.

The Send: Joining the War Against Inaction
By Amanda Pearl on 20 May 2022
When I went to The Flood, I was expecting breakthrough, but little did I know what it would entail.
The Flood was a week long event preceding the Send missions movement, held in Kansas City, Missouri. During The Flood and The Send, there were lots of worship times, speakers such as Francis Chan and Lou Engle, as well as outreaches each afternoon of The Flood. Before going to the Flood, I was not completely sure what to expect. I knew it was going to be incredible, but what would that look like?
