1. Doxa Deo Dream (75%)
    a. Doxa Deo Mandate
    b. Doxa Deo DNA
    c. Doxa Deo Values

2. Leadership Development (25%)
    a. Leadership Foundation
    b. Leadership Skills
    c. Leadership Practice

 

The City Changers Ministry Program stands on the promise which the Lord gave in Isaiah 55:11, “My Word shall accomplish that which I please and purpose.  It shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”  Consequently the program strives to be THE City Changers program within the context of Doxa Deo.
