We believe that the two most important settings for discipleship are:

*Natural family: through dads and moms

*Spiritual family: through house churches and the equipping that trans-local ministries provide.

God has provided servant- leaders with special gifts to equip the people of God to be and act like Christ. They are apostles, prophets, teachers, pastors, and evangelists (Ephesians 4:10-16). Every apostolic tribe has been given these servant leaders, who support and supplement the training that occurs through parents and house churches. We provide life-changing instruction to the members of the Rock Tribe through the Rock Training Center.

Three primary areas to be transformed into Christ’s likeness:

The head (mind) must be renewed, so that we think like Christ. (Romans 12:2)

The heart must be renovated, so that we have Christ’s character, motives, and attitudes. (Ezekiel 36:26; Matthew 5:18; Romans 2:28)

The hands (lifestyle) must be trained, so that we can effectively do the ministry of Christ. (Ephesians 4:16; 2Timothy 3:17) The Word of God and the Spirit of God are the two powerful agencies for transformation. (2Timothy 3:16-17)
