About Us

ONLINE DISCIPLESHIP ACADEMY (ODA) is committed to educating, enriching, and empowering God's people with God's WORD and preparing them for exploits in these last days before the coming of our Great KING and LORD JESUS CHRIST.

At ODA, we provide the opportunity for those who participate in our programs to be effective in their Christian walk and work, and to accomplish great exploits for God in their sphere of influence. They will receive revelatory instructions from God's WORD, Spiritual impartation from God's SPIRIT, and an uncommon experience of the Power of God through the atmosphere for Miracles created by God. They will also be given several opportunities to experience firsthand practical ministries and missions, to put into practice what they have learned.
