For the last eight seasons, over 10 years, the TX-LA Gulf Coast Synod has hosted The Disciple Project for the purpose of Christian Leadership. We have practiced our value system intentionally and learned many things that will inform the future.
The Vision: A diverse community of youth and adults learning Christian leadership together to live lives of Christian discipleship.
The Mission: To identify, equip and send youth and adults as Christian leaders into the world.
We will do this by providing a time and place to:
- Experience an inclusive, outwardly focused Christian Community
- Learn and practice leadership skills
- Discern God’s Call
- Live in response to God’s grace
One of the most effective components of The Disciple Project is the wide variety of Learning Tracks developed each year. The goal is leadership through discipleship by connecting to passions, gifts, skills and daily life. Tracks target specific audiences, engage a variety of ages and have different outcomes that get carried home with each participant.
We know The Disciple Project is effective. Stories abound of leaders returning to their congregation with real skills and a renewed sense of call to serve. More importantly, we see leaders of all ages using new skills integrated into their life following this experience.
Adults attending The Disciple Project are amazed at the gifts and leadership capacity of their young people. They learn side by side, and through the course of the week, mentor one another. This is not a leadership school for volunteering at the church or a chance for youth to be a better youth group leader. The Disciple Project is about faithful leadership and service in daily life.
