Today a handful of students arrived here in Tauranga, New Zealand to embark on a 5 month journey into exploring the depths of Christ love! The journey will focus as a catalyst to radical & deep intimacy that will serve each one with deep & personal radical heart transformation that will also ignite them as forerunners for Christ as they go into the different nations and different streams of cultures and lifestyles in the earth. Oh for a people who would truly embrace radical devotion to communing with Christ and stand in the earth as salt & light to a dull & darkened world!!! Over the next 2 days 21 students will emerge from the nations gathering together to this beautiful city with one thing in mind; "let us go after the knowledge of God and the nations of the earth. Let us experience radical intimacy with Christ at the heart level and let that radical transformation bleed through us and into the hearts of mankind!"
For the next three months students will live and study in devotion to God. Students will also spend 12-16 hours a week in the place of prayer via Tauranga House of Prayer. As a family we will wrestle with the knowledge, character and attributes of God; we will fight in the grace of God that we might experience deep intimacy and have deep life long and life changing union with Christ.
After 12 weeks in the place of prayer & study we will break the 21 into 3 or more teams and send them out to apply what they have been learning, that they might have radical impact on the nations. Please pray for us as we are praying about sending a team to Brazil, Turkey and NZ/South Pacific Islands.
The heart of the school is to serve as a foundational grounds to the purposes and destiny that God has for the lives of the students! That this place would be more than a typical bubble, and that students would be quipped as they graduate and move on or stay here in the will of God. Oh that Jesus would raise up a burning and spotless bride.
