Calling all followers of Jesus.
Dedicate a season of your life to be...
ROOTED
in the Truth of God's Word.
Weather you have a lifetime of biblical knowledge, opening the Bible for the first time, or somewhere in between, the Word of God has the power and authority to inform every season of life. Our actions, directed by our beliefs, are ultimately informed by what we think is true. In ADS, we examine the roots of our beliefs and allow the Word of God and the Holy Spirit to illuminate the the bad roots, and cultivate the roots that are grounded in Truth.
IMMERSED
in the healing presence of God.
Our relationship with Jesus is the most important in our lives and is the only way to experience true abundant life. Unfortunately, many things position themselves between our souls and our creator and it is becoming increasingly difficult in our modern society to abide in Him. In ADS, we learn and practice a lifestyle that is compatible with the way of Jesus. One that is unhurried, unburdened, and exposes our hearts to the healing light of Jesus' presence.
EQUIPPED
to step into a fruitful life of obedience.
God has invited us into building His Kingdom on earth as it is on heaven. This is the calling that every person has on their lives but unfortunately, most do not participate. Not for lack of desiring to do good, but because we have taken it upon ourselves to dictate what is good and worthy of our valuable time. In ADS, we re-learn how to listen and obey to the Word of the Lord and in doing so, realize how our giftings and passions can be used for His Kingdom.

What is the format?
This school is a 9-month program that meets Monday nights from 5:30-9:30, beginning in September and runs through May.
Each night will include elements of small group discussion, worship, lectures, and prayer.

Is this a lesser experience to the full-time school?
The part time school packs the same punch as the full time school with the advantage of giving you the opportunity to apply what you are learning to your normal rhythms of life.
Is this necessary If i've already completed a discipleship school?
You may encounter content that you already know, but you will be surprised how God can use the same truth to take you deeper in your faith. Everyone that goes through our school walks away with a fresh fire for God, regardless of how much experience they have.
Do I have to be or become a member of Antioch Community Church?
All people are welcome to participate in this school and while you will be more than welcome to attend Antioch FC while you participate, it is not a requirement.
However, there are requirements during the school that you attend church and a life group somewhere.

Why choose this school if the part time school is more accessable?
Even though much of the content is the same with both schools, the advantage of this school is the space that you will have to process through, and reset the way that you operate as a follower of Jesus in a community of others doing the same. This can be much harder to do if you remain in the same day-to-day structures that you would have to contend with during the part time school.

Can I work a part-time job during the school?
We recognize that you will have an ongoing need for money during the school for living expenses, so we encourage our students to get part time jobs. However, in order to take advantage of this season, we encourage there to be a limit of 20 - hours of work per week.
