"The impact I experienced the most after taking DULI in both my workplace and church leadership was understanding that people have different personalities, and the kingdom strengths each of us carries create balance in both ministry and work. The Fivefold Gifting assessment surprised me by identifying me with a pastoral gift, which helped me see that pastoral gifting is about caring for people, not just holding a title. DULI strengthened my confidence and helped me understand my calling more clearly."

Onyz Myanda

"DULI helped me understand how the church functions and the values and ethics the staff live by, which deepened my understanding of healthy church leadership. My strongest interest was in the theological teachings. I would absolutely recommend DULI!"

David Nyiringabo

"Before DULI, I was lacking confidence in my leadership abilities, and either shrinking back or taking on too much because I didn’t know how to discern what opportunities best fit my gifting. Throughout DULI, God developed a confidence in my leadership capacity - a confidence based on who He is and how He has knit me together. I’m excited to see how the lessons I’ve learned will play out in my service to church and in my workplace."

Kristi Doubet

Through DULI, I found a safe space to develop and use my spiritual gifts, which opened doors for me to serve and make an impact in ways I never imagined.

David Rivas

Before DULI, my leadership was full of fear, and I constantly believed, I can't. I'm not smart enough. Through DULI, I learned that the Church is a body, and every part is equally important. That truth gave me the confidence to recognize that I have a place in the body and gifts that my Savior created me with. Now I confidently walk in those gifts, building on them not for myself, but for generations to come.
