Training for
life & ministry.

A one-year, full-time discipleship programme to grow deep in God, discover your purpose, and be equipped for a lifetime of service.

Who we are

LEAP is a one-year intensive discipleship training programme for men and women who want to be marked by the living God.

From 2027, LEAP calls a brand-new, purpose-built campus in Pinehurst, Cape Town home — the ideal place to give a year to growing in God and discovering your purpose, surrounded by community, deep in the Word, and stretched in real ministry.

There is no better way to prepare for whatever comes next: a future shaped not by your own striving, but by the touch of the living God. We follow the pattern of Jesus, who invested deeply in a few so that the many could be reached.

Why LEAP?
  • Rooted in the local church

    LEAP isn't a classroom on an island. You're planted in the life of a thriving congregation — worshipping, serving and being discipled by people who live out ministry every week.

  • Real ministry, not just theory

    You won't only study ministry — you'll do it. Weekly outreaches, serving teams and hands-on equipping turn what you learn into lived experience.

  • Intentional community

    Live, eat, pray and grow alongside a close community for a full year. The friendships and accountability formed here outlast the programme itself.

  • Personal mentorship

    Seasoned leaders walk closely with you — not from a distance, but in real relationship — speaking into your character, your calling and your next step.

Your year ahead

Four ways the year will shape you.

LEAP is built around growing the whole person — heart, head, and hands — so you leave grounded, equipped, and sent.

L

Learn the Word

Strong biblical and theological foundations through structured teaching, so your faith is built on truth that lasts.

E

Encounter God

A rhythm of prayer, worship, and life in community where you grow to know God for yourself — not second-hand.

A

Act in mission

Real outreaches, serving, and ministry experience that take faith out of the classroom and into the world.

P

Pursue purpose

Mentorship, character, and gifting development that help you discover and step into your God-given calling.

What a year looks like

More than a course. A way of life.

01

Teaching & theology

Solid, structured biblical training that anchors you in sound doctrine and a love for Scripture.

02

Afternoon electives

Choose a study or serving track in the afternoons — putting what you learn into practice or going deeper.

03

Outreaches & mission

Go and serve. Outreaches are woven into the year so ministry becomes lived experience, not just theory.

04

Camps, conference & community

Orientation and debrief camps, the Four12 Conference, and exposure to Joshua Generation congregations across the country.

Our stories

A year that marks you for life.

LEAP gave me a foundation in God's Word I'll build the rest of my life on. I came unsure of my calling and left with clarity.

LEAP graduate

Living in community, sitting under the teaching, going out on outreach — it grew me in ways a classroom never could.

LEAP graduate

I learned to know God for myself, not second-hand. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
