The Movement Day Scholars program is a three year certificate training program designed for leaders working in their own cities. The objective of the training is to build capacity into the lives of leaders and their organizations to scale the impact of the gospel in their cities through united efforts with teams. The three year outcome of the training is the formation of a decadal or ten year plan to impact their city long term.

The training model is an annual two day training with five hours of training per day for two days. Each training cycle is followed up by readings and book reports. In year three the leaders work on the formation of a decadal plan with a team from their city. It is optimal for multiple persons to attend the training together from the same city.

The five training objectives of the program are:

1. A deepened spirituality through the practice of Lectio Davina (reflective reading)
2. A theological fluency for cities from the Bible
3. Becoming a subject matter expert on your city – it’s history, its challenges, and the potential of a united church
4. Alliance building in your city especially among marketplace leaders, women in leadership, and the next generation
5. Creating a decadal plan for your city
