That\u2019s exactly what Chance of a Lifetime (COAL) Season Six offers \u2014 a life-changing, Kingdom-focused journey that will take you from the streets of Philadelphia to ministries across the U.S., and finally to the nations of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is more than a program. It\u2019s a call to discipleship, a season of radical growth, and an opportunity to be part of God\u2019s global mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The three phases of COAL<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Phase One \u2013 Philadelphia: serving at Camp Hope for Kids (three months)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your journey begins in the vibrant, diverse city of Philadelphia, where you\u2019ll spend three months serving at Camp Hope for Kids. Here, you\u2019ll pour into children and families through hands-on ministry, building relationships, and sharing the hope of Jesus. You\u2019ll also receive intentional training in the ministry of Jesus, learning how to pray with power, share your faith with courage, and serve with humility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Phase Two \u2013 Ministry placement (nine months)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, you\u2019ll step into nine months of real-world ministry experience. Whether in a church, a community outreach, or a specialized ministry setting, you\u2019ll put your training into practice while continuing to grow as a disciple of Jesus. You\u2019ll be mentored, challenged, and equipped to serve wherever God calls you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Phase Three \u2013 Global missions (three months overseas service)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your final phase takes you beyond borders, as you join a missionary team overseas. This cross-cultural experience will stretch your faith, deepen your compassion, and expand your vision for God\u2019s Kingdom. You\u2019ll serve alongside local disciples, encourage the church, and share the Good News to the ends of the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"697\" height=\"793\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/clone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/chance-of-a-lifetime-season-5-1.jpg?resize=697%2C793&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/chance-of-a-lifetime-season-5-1.jpg?w=697&amp;ssl=1 697w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/chance-of-a-lifetime-season-5-1.jpg?resize=264%2C300&amp;ssl=1 264w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 697px) 100vw, 697px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">One mission, one focus<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through every phase, COAL is committed to one thing: Training you in the ministry of Jesus and teaching you how to live out your discipleship as we work together to build God\u2019s Kingdom.
