The Journey
Discover the shared rhythm of formation, community, and mission that shapes the ROOTED journey.
A guided discipleship pathway designed to help you become deeply rooted in Jesus.
The ROOTED Journey
A season of formation shaping faithful followers and leaders of Jesus.
“For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.” – Romans 8:14
ROOTED is a discipleship journey, a season intentionally set apart to learn how to walk closely with Jesus, listen to the Holy Spirit, and live a life shaped by faithful obedience.
This journey is not about completing a program, but about allowing your life to be formed over time through daily rhythms of prayer, Scripture, worship, community, and service.
Formation for Leadership
ROOTED prepares students to lead, not through position or performance, but through character, conviction, and responsibility.
As students learn to follow Jesus closely, they also learn to lead their own lives well, serve others faithfully, and take ownership in the work God entrusts to them.
Leadership is formed through humility, consistency, and obedience in ordinary moments. Students leave ROOTED better equipped to lead in their families, churches, workplaces, and communities.
Pathways Through the Journey
ROOTED offers two ways to step into this season, depending on the time and capacity you are able to commit.
Full-Year Journey
A full year allows space for depth, consistency, and lasting formation. Over time, spiritual rhythms become settled practices rather than short-term disciplines.
Relationships deepen, character is shaped through daily obedience, and growth unfolds patiently rather than through intensity alone.
We have consistently seen that those who are able to commit to a full year experience a deeper rooting in their walk with Jesus, one that continues to bear fruit well beyond the journey itself. For those who are able, the full-year journey is strongly encouraged.
Half-Year Journey
The half-year journey offers a focused season of discipleship within the same formative rhythms and community life.
This option provides space to grow in intimacy with Jesus, strengthen spiritual practices, and walk in obedience alongside others, while committing to a shorter time frame.
Both pathways begin in January and July, allowing students to join at the appropriate time.
Your Next Step
If you sense an invitation into a season of deeper devotion, obedience, and formation, we invite you to consider joining the January 2027 group at ROOTED.
Practical information regarding dates, fees, and how to apply can be found on the Program Details page.
A Closing Word
The ROOTED Journey is for those who desire a life shaped by Jesus, marked by attentiveness, obedience, and service.
This is a season of formation that prepares you not only to follow Christ more closely, but to lead faithfully wherever He places you.
