When you sign up for this course, you are stepping out onto the boat and into an incredible adventure with God! Sharing our faith and teaching about the transformational power of the cross is what missions is all about! For some of us this may come naturally, yet for others this is a vital skill that we need to develop! At it’s core, evangelism is about helping others to have a better understanding of the nature & character of God. Jesus once said that, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.”

You may have seen some cringe-worthy examples of sharing our faith, but there is something powerful when evangelism is done from a place of love and respect. In this school we will study the heart of the evangelist and God’s heart for the lost, and we’ll work together to develop critical thinking skills that will allow to articulate our faith.

“THe great commission is not an option to consider, it’s a command to be obeyed!”- j. Hudson Taylor

“Let us help you discover your role in God’s great mission of reaching the lost with the Good News. What are the visions and dreams and purposes of God for your life? Who are the people you have a burden to reach?

Join us and learn how to bring the message of the gospel to the lost and broken, to different opinions, worldviews, cultures, and languages. From the homeless and hopeless, to the wealthy and prestigious, from the slums to the university campuses. From across the street, to across the world, you will learn how to bring the message of hope to those in darkness.

Your DTS taught you to know God. The SOME teaches you how to make God known. The School of Missions and Evangelism is designed to help you identify and activate your gifts, strengths, and talents, and pursue your specific calling in bringing the knowledge of Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth. The SOME will give you the tools you need in fulfilling the Great Commission.”

Isaac & Hannah Meyer (School Leaders)
