YWAM Creative DTS Video from Aalesund Norway

I debated long and hard about adding a video to this site, but I really liked this video that was put together by the YWAM Creative Discipleship Training School from Aalesund in Norway. It was made as a creative application of 2 weeks of teaching on their YWAM DTS.

I wonder which two weeks of teaching this was after.

YWAM is a Popular Gap Year Option for Christians

YWAM is becoming a common destination among Christians wanting to embark on a Gap Year. Whether it is the year between high school and college, or college / university and a career, short term missions work is a fantastic option that I reckon any Christian should look at doing.

Although the effectiveness of short term missions work has been debated, and will continue to be debated, probably until Christ’s return, I believe that it is an important part of God’s plan for the Church. Short Term Missions not only reach out to people in the outreach locations, it also opens the eyes and hearts of the people taking part in the short term outreach.

Jesus commanded us to go into all the world and make disciples of nations. The more people that get doing this, long term or short term, the closer we are getting to doing what God has called us to do.

A Unique YWAM DTS Running Over Two Summers Targets College and University Students

Designed specifically for College and University students the “One DTS” offered by Youth With A Mission Colorado splits the traditional YWAM DTS in half to run over two summers. The first summer is spent in the lecture phase of the DTS. After the lecture phase the student then participates in a local church internship while studying or working. The following summer the students participate in an international outreach with the YWAM DTS.
