Live a missional life in a secular age.

The Missional Life Course is a 10-week course that helps you connect your faith to your life in the modern world.

Welcome to the Missional Life Course:

Join Jon Tyson and Tyler Prieb in this 10 week course on the basics of missional living, designed to help everyday followers of Jesus learn how to live and exercise a compelling faith in a secular age.

A simple course for mission.

Join hundreds of churches who are forming their people for missional lives in secular culture.

Pastors - we know it can be hard to find the right, trustworthy materials for discipleship, in the midst of your busy lives.

We know this feeling. We built this course because we couldn’t find anything else that captured God’s heart for mission, and was accessible to everyday followers of Jesus in New York City.

We’ve built this for our church and for yours - to help your people live everyday Kingdom lives in public. We’ll help you.

Course Overview

An integrated approach to the most important topics for everyday missional discipleship:

  • Mission starts with God. We must learn and understand His character, His heart, and His radical love to know what He is doing in the world.

  • What is the Gospel? And what does it look like to steward a message of “Good News” in modern society?

  • Our actions flow out of our identity. As “ambassadors,” we are sent to be representatives of God’s Kingdom and to go into the world with courage and compassion.

  • Is evangelism possible in modern culture? How do we share the hope that we have in relational, contextual and bold ways?

  • How do we work out God’s invitation to do justice? God calls His people to care for the poor and the oppressed, to love mercy, and to pursue His vision of peace and flourishing in the world.

  • We spend most of our lives at work and it can be worshipful and good for the world when it is done unto God. So, how do we understand God’s missional calling on our work?

  • God’s Kingdom is marked by radical hospitality, by those who show love to the stranger and welcome to the “other.” We’ll look at hospitality as a core practice.

  • Our motives matter. Are you motivated by selfish ambition or holy ambition? Are you driven or called? Root your ambition in God’s vision for the world, not your own.

  • Learn to live at a sacred pace and avoid ministry burnout and apathy so that you can stay faithful for the long-haul.

  • A missional life does not happen by accident. We are invited to partner with the Spirit and design a missional life -- one that is intentional, creative and woven into God’s story.

  • How do we courageously position our lives at the frontiers of God’s kingdom, wherever we find them?
