WELCOME!

ZOE Courses were born out of a passion to activate women and men into the mission of God, in both their local communities and around the globe.

The first course, called IDENTITY, helps people recognize and understand their gifts and abilities, their "first name" and how they are uniquely positioned to participate in God's mission. It is exciting to see people take risks and blossom, enjoying a new-found confidence as they begin to dream "God-sized" dreams.

We often get feedback from past participants and hear stories of their courageous, risk-taking. Some have quit jobs; others have gone back to school and still others have started new ministry initiatives. They keep moving in spite of fear and enjoy a new-found confidence as they begin to dream with God about what could be. But it is hard. Really hard.

Sometimes we begin to take risks, starting out strong and energized, but we struggle to stay motivated or fear creeps back in. Or maybe we begin to have trouble relationally with others on the team and we find ourselves retreating. This leadership thing is not easy and if we get really honest, often it’s us that gets in our own way.

This is why we wrote this course called THRIVE. This course will help us examine our lives to determine what holds us back. Each of us will be encouraged to take steps towards greater maturity and to take personal responsibility for our own continued growth.

As always, this course...which is called THRIVE, is the result of collective effort. IDENTITY is being used in Canada, the USA, Africa and Asia. Curriculum produced through ZOE Network will continue to be collaborative in nature. We long to create practical resources that can be used in a variety of contexts and enable leaders to continue to disciple those around them.

May you be blessed by these efforts.
