Discover Who God Is

The decision to come to YWAM Louisville has drastically changed my life. My whole life had been surrounded by insecurity, confusion, and passivity. I was almost running out of hope and doubting God's actual existence when I got the chance to come to a discipleship training school. I grew up going to church and thought I knew who God was, but I was so wrong. God used YWAM Louisville to reveal who he is and how deeply he cares for me. Every week, I felt like my beliefs and perspective of the Lord were challenged. The staff challenged me to keep pursuing the Lord through all of my questions and doubts. I started to realize God can handle my questions and he will never leave my side. I am so grateful for how God is moving at YWAM Louisville. I'm also so grateful for their commitment to fighting for each other and living out the truth of scripture. I have finally found hope, stability, and security for the first time in my life. If anyone is looking to know God deeper or what it looks like to live in truth, I would recommend coming here!

After graduating high school, I knew I wanted to do some type of missions but had no idea what that looked like for me. I researched a few different missions organizations, but nothing really stood out until I heard about YWAM. What intrigued me about them was the community base, the training, and the outreach- checking every box that I had on my list.

I knew I wanted to do a DTS when YWAM Louisville called me, and everything they described their base and school as fit what I was looking for. In DTS, I found friends as close as family, biblical discipleship, a transformed relationship with Jesus, and an opportunity to use my gifts in missions. I never would have imagined of going to the places I’ve been or the ways God has used me through YWAM.

I recommend DTS to everyone, because of the ways that the Lord met me, transformed me, and used me. My life will never be the same again! I am so grateful for how I have been invested in here at YWAM Louisville, launched to places I couldn’t have dreamed of, and for the new relationship I have with God!

In September of 2019 I decided to do a Discipleship Training School with YWAM Louisville. Prior to this decision I felt stagnant in my faith and I was longing to further my relationship with the Lord. My school helped me do this and more. I learned how the Lord wanted a personal relationship and what that looks like for me.
For the second part of my school I had the opportunity to go on an overseas mission trip to Southeast Asia for six weeks. My team and I were able to minister to the Hindu people. We taught English to students in schools, we shared stories to families in homes and we served food to widows in church. All with the purpose of sharing the love of Jesus and what relationship with him looks like.
I would recommend YWAM Louisville to anyone looking to start or further their relationship with the Lord! Everyone there wants to see YOU grow in your relationship with the Lord. My experience with them was amazing and I would recommend YWAM Louisville to anyone!
