Before you apply Course
Change
During Foundations you will be challenged and many things will surface in your life. Your willingness to change and let
go of everything that is not in accordance with the nature of God in you is essential.
Discipleship
The leadership will guide you to new experiences in Christ. This will be done by different examples and models of
prayer, worship, ministering etc. that you are expected to follow during the course.
Workload
*Schedule of Foundations is as follows*
Apart from this Foundations requires a considerable amount of homework (reading and written assignments in English or
Spanish). Jobs, ministries, hobbies, etc. that would in any way interfere with the program, homework, and your
performance are not allowed for the duration of the course.
Housing
During the course you will have to live in the house and with the people assigned to you by Foundations. You will have
to share a room with at least one person and help in the daily household chores.
Trip
Foundations will culminate in a 10 day mission trip where we minister to different churches and mission. The eating and
sleeping conditions on this trip might not always be comfortable.

Discipleship
Values and Regulations Course
1. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. (Matthew 22:37)
D.- Identity
...to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true
righteousness and holiness (Ephesians 4:23-24).
...and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator
(Colossians 3:10).
For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he...(Proverbs 23:7).
In our new identity we now have:
-Total forgiveness
-The Nature of the father
-The Righteousness of Christ
-Authority
-Power
F.- Stewardship
”...Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this” says the

you will not have room enough for it” (Malachi 3:10).

2. Love your neighbour as yourself. (Matthew 22:37) Discipleship
Course
A.- Be Identified with the Body
From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in
love, as each part does its work (Ephesians 4:16)
For her stones are dear to your servants (Psalm 102: 14).
C.- Mercy
"He does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens
are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him" (Psalm 103:10-11).
Because judgement without mercy will be shown to everyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over
judgement! (James 2:13).
F.- Restoration
Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently. But watch yourself, or
you also may be tempted. Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfil the law of Christ
(Galatians 6:1-2).
G.- Faithfulness
My eyes will be on the faithful in the land (Psalm 101:6).
Who then is the faithful and the wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his
household to give them their food at the proper time? (Matthew 24:45).
Whoever can be trusted with very little… (Luke 16:10).
...but to show that they can be fully trusted… (Titus 2:10).
H.- Loyalty
...And not to steal from them, but to show that they can be fully trusted, so that in every way they will make the
teaching about God our Savoir attractive (Titus 2:10).
Loyalty must be shown towards God, delegated leadership and authorities.
