IN A DEEPER WAY!
Discipleship training school
Intimacy
Take long strides toward intimacy with the master, Jesus Christ, and fellow disciples. Worship, prayer, and quiet time are daily activities that lead students into a deeper relationship with God.
growth
See the growth of fruit in your life as a direct result of “pressure”. Vida220 gives that “voluntary pressure” that causes substantial growth in the lives of our students.
transformation
Experience an atmosphere that encourages you to be transformed into the image of Christ “Therefore I no longer live, but Christ lives within me…” (Galatians 2:20)
Methodology
Community Living
Live together in community. This will be the setting for discipleship through relationships with other believers. The goals of the intentional discipleship community atmosphere are:
- Spur each other on to growth by practicing corporate and personal spiritual disciplines and allowing close relationships of accountability to encourage each other on to growth.
- Discover what it means to “die to self” by looking at our individual lives through the eyes of others and therefore realizing where we need to become more like Christ.
Work within a local church
Each team (4-5 participants to a team) will be assigned to a specific duty and job description within a local church or ministry. The local church is the first expression of the body of Christ in the world. Vida220 is committed to seeing the Kingdom of God grow through healthy local churches and ministries. A ministry coordinator will be guiding and holding accountable each participant as they carry out this part of their task.
Discipleship training classes
Each student will attend regular discipleship training classes throughout the duration of the program. Each week the students will focus on a different topic that will help them learn and grow deeper in their relationship with God. Vida220 students are also required to be involved in weekly activities designed to help process that material that is being covered.

From kids ministry to construction, evangelism to church involvement, you will be challenged to be the hands and feet of Jesus, dying to yourself for the greatest call of all, to love as He first loved us.
