SURF DTS

The Surf DTS is for anyone who loves the ocean and longs to go deeper with God. Set in the iconic surf culture of the Gold Coast, this DTS blends your passion for surfing with a life-transforming journey of faith, discipleship, and missions.

Over 11 weeks of lecture phase, you’ll dive into powerful teaching on topics like hearing God’s voice, identity, missions, forgiveness, and more—while being part of a vibrant, Christ-centered community. You’ll be personally discipled, stretched in your faith, and cheered on every step of the way.

And yes, there’s surfing. Lots of it. You’ll hit the waves regularly, growing in skill and soaking up God’s presence in His creation. Surf sessions become places of connection, worship, and adventure.

Then it’s time to take it global. During the 9-week outreach phase, you’ll travel to share the love of Jesus in real and practical ways—bringing hope, healing, and transformation wherever God leads.
