KDSC: THE GLOCALNET DNA
What if the Church Were The Missionary?
Every believer should own the Great Commission, not just the religious professional or vocational minister. Through the Kingdom DNA of KDSC (Kingdom, Disciple, Society, Church), we encourage everyone to use their job and talents to mobilize the word of God into the public square.
What is Coming Up in DFW

GLOCALNET TRAINING
In Person Training
Planting? Existing church pastor looking to mobilize members? Learn how to engage globally? If you’re ready to dive headfirst into the GlocalNet curriculum, then our in-person cohort training is perfect for you.
Whether you want to plant an attractional or organic church model, our training will equip you. Our training is not model-specific or denominational. We don’t want you to plant a better church, we want you to plant a different church!
