1  | A focus on Christian leadership
We focus on five core attributes of Christian leadership (the 5C’s):

• Christ 
• Community
• Character
• Calling
• Competence

2 | R.I.S.E. modeled training
LQLI utilizes the four dimensions of training (the 4D’s), modeled after Jesus’ ministry. The 4D’s can be abbreviated as R.I.S.E.:

• Relationship
• Instruction
• Spirituality
• Experience

3 | Mentorship
Each participant is assigned a mentor for the duration of the program. Mentors are key to this process and work closely with participants throughout the program.

4 | Learning block progression
The 10-month program consists of four learning blocks that lead to the completion and graduation of the LQLI course:

• Foundation - We devote the first block of LQLI to identifying and resolving strongholds and errors in participants’ lives.
• Training - Each training track focuses on one of the C’s and uses the R.I.S.E. dimensions to implement training.
• Leading - Leaders in training are formally commissioned to the LifeQuest ministry area they are called to.
• Mission - The LQLI class serves on a mission or project of the group’s choosing and design, sponsored by LifeQuest and/or partner organizations.
