The ADS started operating 30 years ago with one goal in mind: to train up Great Commandment (Matthew 22:36-40) and Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20) disciples of Jesus; men and women who will love God wholeheartedly and who will submit their whole lives to His leadership and purposes.

The school's weekly structure is one night a week, every Tuesday evening, from 6:00-9:30pm. 

There may also be a few additional Saturday classes.

This current school will begin on August 18th 2026 and will run through April 18th 2027.

It will include one local weekend outreach, and conclude with a two week international outreach.

The cost of the school is $7MILLION.
