Arts & Media are powerful propellers in our generation that we can use to engage in culture and spread the love of Jesus. At YWAM Toowoomba we feel called to steward creativity and social media in a way that expresses our love for Jesus, call people to prayer, and fight for justice and the Great Commission. On our Arts & Media DTS you will learn to cultivate your skills and passions for the purposes of God’s Kingdom.
DTS is about drawing close to Jesus for 6 months, with expectation of encountering Jesus, being equipped to know God more, and being sent out to make God known. As Youth With A Mission, the core of our movement is to KNOW GOD and MAKE GOD KNOWN. Discipleship Training School is a 5 month course where students will gain understanding of God and His ways. Through knowing God firstly, our lives will be set up to make God known most effectively. DTS is an opportunity to say “yes” to these truths.
What is DTS?
Draw close to Jesus, encounter God, get equipped for missions, and be sent out. That is what DTS is about.
