WHY 3DTC? TESTIMONIALS
John R. Cross
Guest Professor, Author, and Founder of GoodSeed International
"DM2 has created some of the best Bible-based discipleship material I have ever seen. It is very simple to use and solid in content--really gives a person some meat to chew on. They also have a good handle on using the GoodSeed foundational books, videos, and visual aids we have developed. It was a joy to team up with them in presenting the message of the Bible, the story of the empty cross and the empty tomb!"

"PARENTS: You need to know about this GAP YEAR school, 3DTC, in Beaumont, Texas. Lives are being transformed and God is working in amazing ways. If you have a graduate or one soon-to-be, please seriously consider this school."

"Let me begin by saying that I am a huge fan of 3DTC. For the past three years I have been privileged to have a front row seat where I have been able to watch, weigh, and evaluate the 3DTC discipling process. I have even been privileged to participate in the training classes at various points. What I have observed with my own eyes is that the program is truly transformational.
3DTC provides its students with a unique hothouse environment whereby young men and women, who come together from various backgrounds, are carefully cultivated like tender green shoots. In a short manner of time, they grow and develop like strong, vibrant plants. This is because over a nine-month period, a careful balance has been maintained between intensive study of God's word and personal involvement in multiple ministry opportunities. This coupling of both truth and praxis combines to develop a high level of spiritual maturity that I have seldom seen among young believers."

"What an encouraging week it was to spend time with youth who want to know and apply God’s Word in their lives. It is easy to get discouraged in a world gone "woke"; however, being around a group of young men and women who are energetically pursuing God through being trained to become disciple makers gives me hope for the future.
Many people are asking, "what can we practically do to influence our nation to return to God?" One practical thing is to provide an alternative for youth beyond the woke, agnostic educational systems. 3D is a practical way to train our youth with a biblical worldview who will then be able to take leadership roles for the rest of their lives. Training disciple makers that are young in their faith will develop believers who can be the leaders of the church in the future.
There is no better use of time, talent and treasure I know of than to train our youth here in America so they can be sent to become the salt and light throughout the world, including right here in America. Having experienced 3D firsthand for 3 years now, 3D is well on its way to fulfilling its vision to be a replicable model that can be used by other churches to create the leaders of tomorrow."

“The Romans 1-8 course at 3D was something that greatly affected my spiritual life, I did not understand sanctification before but now, I understand how much of a necessity it is in the Christian life.
Understanding sanctification and the gospel now makes the Bible easier to understand. I can pick up almost any passage and understand it a lot easier than I could about a year ago. Being able to understand what I am reading makes it far easier to enjoy reading it and makes it easier to grow in my walk with Christ (2 Peter 3:18) Along with that I have been feeling far closer in my relationship with Christ and understand His love to us.
Overall, this year has been very beneficial and impactful to my life, and I am grateful that God has led me here.”

"I want every portion of my life to be filled with God. He gives me strength, He makes me able to understand His word and I am able by Him to know His love, and that He will fill me with His fullness. No human understanding has ever led me well, but God always has. I want to be so full of God that there isn't room for anything else—none of me and none of this world. God has always given me what I need and blessed me with what I don't.
Being enrolled in 3DTC has been so full of God that sometimes I get overwhelmed by His power and love. I have known the gospel and the importance of disciple-making but now I feel better equipped for sharing. Christ lived His perfect life to die for my sins, all the ugly things I think, say, and do, so that I can be with God to live with Him for all eternity in heaven. That gift of salvation is the most important thing in the world, and I hope I can represent Christ in all I do."

“My favorite curriculum in 3DTC would have to be the Knowing God curriculum. It was the first study of the year and was a great way to form a birds-eye-view of the bible. It was so interesting to see how God had His hands on all of human history and how every time He interacted with mankind, it was always for the purpose of pointing us towards Jesus and His coming sacrifice. It was so interesting to see that every task or ritual that was commanded by God was a picture of the future Messiah and our relationship to Him. This curriculum gave me a whole new view of what God was communicating through the bible. I’m learning to trust Him more and believe that He will do what is best for me. Spending hours and hours feeding on truth helps me remember that more. Suddenly the obstacles that seemed so big before aren’t so big when I trust that God is in control.”
