Bitesize DTS

What is a Bitesize DTS?

Have you ever wanted to do a Youth with a Mission, YWAM Discipleship Training School (DTS) but couldn’t commit to several months? Come and join the Bitesize DTS—an incredible, shorter alternative that packs the transformative power of a DTS into just a few weeks! It’s like a free DTS online. Whether you’re curious about missions, seeking a deeper connection with God, or ready for a faith-centred adventure, the Bitesize DTS might be the perfect next step for you. 

Is it a Free Online DTS?

The Bitesize DTS is a condensed version of YWAM’s classic DTS program, designed for those who want a taste of missions and discipleship without committing to the full-length course. It’s a one-month course; we meet for 4 Monday evenings (7:30 pm UTC+8). It starts November 2025. We will have Biblical teachings that cover identity, purpose and calling. Secondly, we will encourage each other towards personal growth and discipleship in small groups and we will enjoy an online community with some fun worship. 

Despite the short format, we’ve seen that it has a big impact!

Who Is the Bitesize DTS For?

The Bitesize DTS is ideal for anyone looking to experience YWAM’s Discipleship Training School in a flexible, shorter format. You may be:

  • A student on a  break who wants a meaningful way to spend a few weeks
  • A working professional exploring Christian missions but unable to commit to a full-length program
  • A young adult or teenager seeking to deepen your faith in a supportive, Christ-centred environment
  • An adventurous spirit eager to connect with God and discover new perspectives

Simply put, it’s a great way to get a spiritual injection.

Maybe you’ve been wanting to do a DTS or you’ve heard of the DTS and aren’t sure you are ready to jump into it yet. You can do the Bitesize DTS to get a look at what a DTS is really about. Do a free online DTS and see if you want to do the full program later. We trust that even in this short format, God will work deeply in your life and reveal more of His love to you.
