OUR LEADERS
School Directors
James and Tina Dahl are passionate revivalists who desire to move with God in this unique time in history, equipping believers for the harvest. The Dahls have been married for 26 years and have been Jesus followers for a quarter of a century. They are the parents of 7 children–4 grown adults–and have witnessed the power of the gospel in their own family unit. They believe it only takes one, transformed person to change the course of a family and community. The Dahls desire is to foster a culture where healing and belonging occurs, gifts are realized, and students are ultimately empowered so they can practically and supernaturally release the kingdom of God in their unique spheres of influence.
Tracy Horne
Missions and Outreach Director
Tracy is passionate about missions and outreach, she has seen the fruit of these change her own life. They have deepened her intimacy with the Lord, increased her faith to see God move, allowed her to become bolder and more courageous in sharing the gospel, and has given her compassion and love for others. She desires to activate others in these areas as well, to allow them to experience the fruit that they bring in their own lives, their families, their church, and their communities. She is one to press in and press past the awkwardness. You will be stretched and empowered by what she has to offer to this school.
