The online campus stresses the importance of cultivating intentional vulnerability-based friendships with your leader and the members of your small group.
Accountability
Online learning has many advantages and conveniences, but in order for authentic growth and transformation to be possible, the online campus maintains high expectations for your participation and includes many features to help you stay accountable to your school commitments.
Creativity
In the context of online learning, our team has embraced creativity in adapting our curriculum into an online format. Through the breakout room features, we have found creative ways to facilitate everything from prophetic activations to empowering you to effectively lead inner healing sessions.
FAQs
Can I attend the online campus if I live near an existing campus?

Because we are committed to only providing the best possible formation, only students outside driving distance from an existing campus can attend the online campus.
What technology is required to attend the online campus?
Each student needs to have a computer with access to the internet with speeds that are capable of streaming high definition video.
