Welcome on the TDTS an environment that understands creative people's needs, wants, desires and learning styles.

We’re the tools, God is our source and the Nations are our stage.

What is a Troubadour?

A Troubadour was a composer and performer of songs during the Middle Ages in Europe. The tradition began to flourish during the 11th century. Many troubadours traveled for great distances, aiding in the transmission of trade and news. A complementary role was filled at the same period by performers known as joggles in Occitan, jongleurs in French (minstrels in English). Jongleurs are often addressed in troubadour lyrics. Their profession was that of popular entertainer; as such jongleurs sometimes performed troubadour compositions but more often other genres, notably chansons de geste (epic narratives). Today we could say that a Troubadour was a traveling artist, transmitting news. The redeemed form of it: A Troubadour is a traveling Christian artist transmitting the Good News.

Field Assignment OUTREACH

As a second phase of the DTS, specially organized teams are sent out for 8-12 weeks of evangelism in cross-cultural situations. The emphasis is on application of principles taught in the DTS lecture phase, coupled with teaching on evangelism concepts and practices equipping students to share their faith using a variety of means. Special assignments are given during this course.

In our outreach phase we will use our creative gifts to minister to people and transmit the Good News.
