_______________________
A Discipleship School for Planet Shakers.
Our desire to raise up warriors of the faith, true Kings and Priests who are wholeheartedly dedicated to advancing the Kingdom in the earth. As Kings, they are royalty who use their high position to serve just as Jesus did; as Priests, they are worshipers who give everything to stand in the gap for a dying generation.
Dibor is a discipleship school composed of a 6-month Lecture Phase and a 2-month Leadership Training Phase. Students are mentored in what it means to have a true Kingdom identity, a divine perspective of the world around them, and are challenged to influence culture the same way Jesus did. Year 1 Graduates may elect to return for Lion Vrie, our 2nd year staff-internship program, where greater emphasis is put on servant leadership and corporate responsibility.
“GIVE EVERYTHING, ENDURE ANYTHING”
The Story
In the book series The White Lion Chronicles, by Christopher Hopper, a select group of young men are chosen to protect their world from the impending attack of Satan, or Morgui, as they know him. Called at first Boralee, or students, by their teachers, the group endures rigorous training, both physical and spiritual, in order to become elite warriors, guardians of their civilization, known only as the Dibor.
Once unleashed upon the forces of evil within their war-torn homeland of Dionia, the Dibor are a force to be reckoned with. But after they are unable to stop the onslaught of the enemy, the Dibor soon find themselves fighting beside the fabled Lion Vrie, or Knights of The Lion, a much older and mysterious order of sentinels. Together, they represent the King of kings and journey into the fight of their lives, endeavoring to advance the Kingdom of the Most High and save their fallen world.
Though we no longer fight with physical swords and shields as in the fictional books, we do fight with spiritual weapons within the seven areas of culture, each area demanding its own set of tools. Whether a participant goes on to serve in a church setting, dives into the political arena, raises a family, joins the military, becomes a professor, wins a Super Bowl, produces a blockbuster, or writes a bestseller, the goals are quite the same: to unleash upon the world a devout group of individuals bent on advancing the Kingdom of God and saving a dying world from the hands of Satan.
First opened in 2007 to a small group of students from Germany, Costa Rica, Burma, and the US, the Dibor was modeled around much of the same heart of Pastor Christopher’s writings, stemming from a deep desire to see young men and women embrace the call of God on their lives at an early age. Plant these ideas within a strong and vibrant church environment in the midst of revival, and you have a powerful center to birth true servant warriors for Jesus. Today, Dibor is thriving in the care of New Life Christian Church in Watertown, NY and is geared to sending out culture-shapers all over the world.
