SCHOOL OF DISCIPLESHIP
Ezra Discipleship Program (EDP):
Twelve Courses


Through our Ezra Discipleship Program, the School of Discipleship aims to train and disciple students through a wholistic approach: By orienting their hearts to God through a deep study of His Word, equipping them with foundational truths of the Gospel, students will encounter and experience the glory, love and power of God. Life-changing transformation is the goal of this program, so that through faith, believers become faithful followers and committed disciples of Jesus.  We aim to impart to students an undying zeal and love for God, so that they will "chase after Him up the mountain", dwell in His presence, and live passionately for His Kingdom.

"For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, and to do it and to teach His statutes and rules in Israel." (Ezra 7:10)

"And when He saw the multitudes, He went up on the mountain; and there He sat down and His disciples came to Him." (Matthew 5:1)

EDP courses are offered on an ongoing and as-available basis; they can be taken in any order. We recommend that new believers start with Discipleship Foundations as their first course.
