DOXA DEO CITY CHANGERS INSTITUTE
The City Changers Institute has been designed to formally equip people for their relevant area of city transformation. The Institute focus on post-secondary and tertiary training mechanisms, presented as integrated learning between academic theory and relevant practical application. The CCI strives to fulfil a vision of “Equipping City Changers to establish God’s reign through the transformation of people and eight spheres of society.” In 2 Timothy 2:15 we see how Paul encouraged Timothy in a similar way, “Study and be eager, and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing – rightly handling and skilfully teaching – the Word of Truth.”
As the City Changers Institute develops it will aim to provide training for people as agents of transformation in the following 8 spheres of society:
1. Church
2. Education
3. Arts
4. Business
5. Social Society
6. Sport
7. Government
8. Media
All 8 spheres of transformation (or Schools as they are called within the CCI) are built on two foundation stones, i.e. being Christ-centred and Leadership orientated.
The City Changers Institute is divided into 3 main training categories: City Changers Programs; City Changers Vocational Schools; City Changers Potential and Skill Development Programs.
