Frequently asked questions
-
Our Cohorts are for anyone who desires to know and be formed well in The Jesus Way.
Past participants in our Cohorts include men and women from all walks of life from all around North America, including everyone from pastors and church leaders, to average church goers, as well as those who exist outside of traditional church models.
There’s a place at the table for anyone who loves Jesus and wants to dive deeper into following Him.
-
Our experience tells us that most people have never actually been discipled into the Jesus Way. Many of us have heard lots of talks—maybe even participated in conversations—but few people have been part of an intentional community that is invested in growing together in the ways of Jesus. This is what we are seeking to do.
You will become a part of a restorative community of people who are committed to learning, loving, and living for Jesus and are seeking to embody his kingdom in their communities and contexts.
-
The 2023-2024 The Jesus Story Cohort runs from November 3rd 2023 to April 28th 2024.
After kicking things off with an orientation and introduction period in early November, we will hold weekly discussions in the form of two-hour zoom sessions, as well as participating in online community together throughout the course of the Cohort.
-
This cohort is an intentional track for spiritual formation in the life and teachings of Jesus. It is intended for those who deeply desire the life-giving transformation that comes from embracing the reality that Jesus is Lord.
While this is not a college class or seminary course, there is a commitment involved. Each week will include a track that will guide you into various meditations, contemplative practices, discussion questions, readings, etc. As the saying goes: you will get out what you put in. Our encouragement is to spend a little time each day engaging in the track; we believe you will benefit greatly from it.
-
We never want money to keep someone from participating in a cohort. If you feel that you are called to this program but the cost is an issue, please let us know and we will work something out.
