  5. Vision for andStyle of DTW

  6. Vision • Goal#1: To raise up teachers who think and communicate outside the box and who are able to understand the Word and its study (as well as Kingdom life on the whole) at a deeper level.   • Diversity of perspectives represented in the teachers so that people get a broader exposure.  • When mature and responsible teachers (with differing views or differing approaches) are given a platform to communicate, the listeners benefit greatly from the exposure. 

  7. Vision • Goal #2: To raise up hearers who increasingly understand the Word of God, know how to apply it in their lives, and turn that into fruitfulness in His Kingdom • These same teachers will be able to impart to the hearers the LIFE that comes from deepening one's understanding the scriptures and encourages hearers to deepen their own personal study.  • Passion • A people who know God personally and understand / obey His words are better equipped to do His work.

Material and Style Targeted to serve a broad audience (beginner Bible student to experienced) Wisdom and teaching of Holy Spirit emphasized But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you. - John 14:26 Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures. - Luke 24:45
