GSM is a Holy Spirit-driven ministry school where we practice recognising God’s presence, helping students learn how to live in the Kingdom of God and extend its borders through a supernatural lifestyle.

We will intentionally create space where a hunger for God’s manifest presence and an openness to experiencing the power of Holy Spirit is pursued.

Worship is a core value of our culture and is a high priority at GSM because, as Bill Johnson said, “It’s more than a song we sing. It’s our heartfelt response we give to God that places value on Him.”

We believe that our students will reach a deeper level in accessing the heart of God as they unite and worship together in ‘spirit and truth’. We have prioritised different sessions of corporate prayer and worship each day, which is to be led by our amazing student worship team.

Our mission is for each individual to radically live as the revivalist that God has created you to be. A REVIVALIST is a believer who knows and walks in their true God-given identity as a son or daughter, who purposefully and intentionally hosts the presence of God, who shifts atmospheres and brings Heaven to earth for immediate transformation of lives and cultures.

Our expectation is that you will grow in this truth, come to love it, deeply enjoy its value to save and transform you, and ultimately, to radically live it.

Another big heart’s desire of our school is that each person will have the shackles of slavery removed and the robe of royalty and ring of authority restored – with each individual walking in their royal identity as sons and daughters of the King.

GSM is designed to be a ministry training centre where our students find and embrace their God ordained identity, learn the values of the Kingdom (The King’s domain) and walk in the authority and power of this calling. It is a TRANSFORMATIONAL EXPERIENCE where your life will be touched and changed for all eternity!

The Good News without power is not good news. The Good News is dynamic Truth which cuts to our heart and core. It is an invading, disruptive, disturbing, and yet FREEING reality. According to the Bible, this POWER does not allow a hearer to remain the same. So, another of our goals at GSM is that every student would know this POWER and radically live it as is written in Matthew 10:7-8 [NIV] “As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’ Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.”

GSM is not for the faint of heart. It is an extremely fast-paced season of schooling, BUT the training is pivotal and strategic, aiding in you becoming who God designed you to be.

Each week consists of 21 hours of worship, teaching, conference style classes, revival and connect group meetings and weekly hands-on outreaches and serving. Experiencing this together as a group, multiplies it exponentially, together cheering each other on as each realise and live out their unique identities, gifts, and destinies, bringing transformation to not only themselves, but also their local communities.

This is what your personal journey can look like if you commit, surrender, remain focused and journey within GSM:

• Discover your identity in Christ.
• Develop a deeper intimacy with God.
• Learn and live out Biblical Kingdom Values.
• Learn to walk in the power and gifts of the Holy Spirit.
• Learn to study and love Scripture.
• Learn the importance of TRIBE as you build relationships and walk out this journey with other believers.
• Get equipped in ministry training, revival groups and connect groups.
• Serve in love, truth, and power through ministry teams and outreach in your local community, city and the nations whilst on mission trips.

We need to remember that; we have been bought with the ultimate price and placed within a beautiful family. Our behaviour deeply affects others. One of God’s most powerful tools for changing us into His likeness is Community. Personal responsibility and accountability are accomplished through connect group interaction and a covenant community which embraces honesty, transparency and confrontation. You will be part of a Revival Group and a Connect Group, where you will do life, be honoured, encouraged, held accountable, stretched and know grace and love!

GSM students will intentionally be reaching out to different areas within our community and city as part of the GSM City Service and Love On Our City (LOOC) programs. Each student will be involved in the neighbourhood because GENEROSITY IS OUR RESPONSE and PASSION IS THE OVERFLOW.

On top of this, we also encourage students to live in the neighbourhoods and get jobs in the local area, therefore practice bringing Jesus to the marketplace, as a part of their learning hands-on experience. Students are encouraged to work part-time jobs while they attend school.

We emphasise hands-on training and experience along with academic understanding. This creates a “teach and do” culture where students take risks to stretch their faith and grow in their understanding of God and the authority that they are destined to walk in. Students attending GSM should consider themselves full-time students carrying a full load of coursework.

The academic instruction at GSM is unique because it is taught by apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers from hundreds of hours of on-demand course content from Bethel Church as well as Pastors and leaders from our own Church.

While we have powerful guest speakers throughout the year, the primary teaching is through the BSSM Curriculum (via video) with speakers like Bill Johnson, Kris Vallotton, Dann Farrelly, Paul Manwaring, Brian Johnson, as well as other fathers and mothers of the faith. Students will learn how to read, understand, and “do” the Bible, how to practice His presence, to witness, heal the sick, prophesy, preach, pray, cast out demons and much, much more.

Advanced Ministry Training (AMT) is like an elective (short courses) that gives students training in a variety of areas (e.g. missions, prophetic art, evangelism, etc).

Tracks are more like year-long, career-oriented classes (e.g. church planting, youth ministry, kids ministry, etc) that students can take instead of AMTs.

As a full-time student, Advanced Ministry Training (AMTs) & Track classes are available throughout the year that provide a deeper understanding in different areas. These are amazing opportunities to customise your experience and get the most out of your time at GSM. You will learn more about AMTs & TRACKS once school starts.

GSM is NOT an accredited, degree-granting educational institution, so students are not eligible for financial aid, student loans, grants or tax benefits. Your biggest reward will be knowing God more intimately, walking in your identity and then seeing lives set free as you bring light into dark places, as you shift atmospheres, as you pray for the sick and see miracles happen and as you bring hope to a hopeless society. You will receive a Certificate of Completion should you meet the graduation requirements and this will definitely serve as a validation to future ministry employers.
