Destiny for Life

This is a unique trainings program to discover your purpose with Mattheus and Rebekah van der Steen (founders and directors of TRIN), Wilfred Gibson (professional coach and DISC trainer) and Sjaak van der Steen (DISC Trainer and coach/counsellor).TRIN longs to see people, both young and old, achieve their God given purpose and to LIVE as God meant them to live. Coaching and training can help one achieve this. In 2000 Mattheus van der Steen wrote a coaching program called Creative Life Plan (CLP) and it is from this that TRIN has developed. Mattheus and Rebekah now look back on the past few years with great satisfaction at what this program has achieved amongst its participants.  From their own personal experience, and  in collaboration with Wilfred Gibson and Tjaak van der Steen, they have established a training/coaching program which is held on 2 evenings and one day, and is called Destiny for Life.

Do you chase your dreams? Or do you just lead a normal life? Everyone has a dream. You to! Maybe you can't put your dream into words. Maybe you don't believe in your dreams any more. But they are real and want to be brought back to life! In this training, where several different subjects are covered, you will be able to resurrect your dreams and go on to achieve them. It may be  with shaking knees because to live your dream also means daring to take risks and maybe you just need a push in the right direction. No dream has been brought to fruition without opposition and  resistance. This is why we want to urge you onwards, to keep the light and the hope that God has given you burning, and to use the gifts He has given you, so that you can reach your goals. It is all about living from  the strength of your passion.

A word from the team of Mattheus van der Steen, Wilfred Gibson and Tjaak van der Steen ' We have a great desire to help people achieve the desires of their hearts. This training will help you discover your God given purpose. Once you have found out what your purpose is, your passion to achieve it will follow and help bring you closer to your goal. It will help you discover who you are, what your vision and mission is, what sort of leader you are, what you style of behaviour is, how you can communicate better with others, how to strengthen relationships and how you can increase your effectiveness.TRIN has tried to keep the costs of this professional course as low as they can so that it is possible for everyone to do it. The course material comprises the book ' Dare to Dream' by Mattheus van der Steen, 'The Dream Giver' by Bruce Wilkinson and the workbook, 'Destiny for Life'. You will also receive the DISC Personality Analysis and examples of Biblical personalities as well as the DISC work book.

Destiny for Life Recommondations

 



Danielle

My experience with this creative plan for living has been really good. You are grounded in the reality of who you really are and learn to use your gifts effectively. I enjoyed sitting down with someone and not only discovering my dreams and purpose but also working out a practical plan to attain them. I would really encourage you to join one of these courses. It will serve you well for the rest of your life.

Destiny for Life has been a real motivating factor in helping me to find direction in my life.
It is really interesting to learn to know oneself better and to be more aware of ones character. This course has helped me to identify my real dreams and to work towards achieving them in a practical manner.

   

Sara

If you are trying to find out what God's calling is on your life, this training program will help you discover a lot more about what it is He wants you to do. Through analysing your  personality using a special test, your strong and weak points can be discovered and you can find out what to do with them from a practical point of view.  

It will also help you discover what Gifts of the Spirit you have and give you a clearer indication of your calling .  It also gives you direction how to reach your goals and fulfil your calling. Due to various unfortunate circumstances, the calling of God on my life became unclear, but I thank God that through the Destiny for Life course, it has been totally resurrected.

 

Miriam

On the first evening I attended the course, Destiny for Life, I sat for two and a half hours totally engrossed by the information the trainers were giving to us. It was really special to see how openly and honestly they shared their own experiences about the dreams they have for their own lives.
We received several assignments to do at home. One of them was to draw our dream and although drawing is not one of my strong points, I really enjoyed doing this. It made me aware of my dreams, gave me insight into what they involve, and confirmed to me what I want to achieve in my life. This course enriched my life, and it can do the same for you. I want to invite you to take part in a Destiny for Life course, it will change your life!

The Destiny for Life course is a real encouragement! You learn to know yourself through and through with the help of tests and can clearly see both your strong and weak points. However this is not a bad thing as it allows one to work on weak points and so  become stronger and more effective.Through doing the Destiny for Life course my life has been completely turned around. I thought I had my life pretty much together and knew what my dreams and plans were, but I didn't! Since the beginning of the course, God has  given me only bigger dreams...and there are more and more being added. The  Destiny For Life  course brings the  best in you to the surface. You also see what is hindering  you in achieving your dreams, and no matter how wrong you have been, something can be done to turn the situation around. Do you want to know what? If so, quickly apply to go on a course like I did and find out for yourself!

 

The Ekema Family 

We are Tjitske and Douwe Ekema and we found the course 'Destiny for Life' extremely good. The underlying love of Jesus was everyone's central motivation and there was always time for sharing what was on our hearts and to pray for each other.


We really found out what kind of people we are and what we feel comfortable doing. We made a drawing of our dreams and we found the manner in which the drawing was interpreted and explained to us very special indeed.

The DISC analysis showed clearly how we approach our daily lives, our faith, work and our family. The negative things also came to the surface and this course gave us the opportunity to start working on turning these things around. We noticed how many of the people had a much clearer insight into who they were,  after the course. 
As a family we can heartily recommend this course.

   

Pieter en Merel

I found the course, Destiny for Life, really good for my personal development. It touches the core of what it means to be a child of God, to be someone unique and someone that God has given specific dreams to. During the course several things that had confused me about my own desires, became more clear, and I found it really good to share all this with my wife who was on the course with me.

It has enriched our relationship and the results of the DISC tests we did has enabled  us to better understand each other. 

After the first evening of the course, I began to take positive steps towards achieving the specific dreams that I have. During the time the course participants shared their dreams and spoke about what they had drawn, I was so touched that tears streamed down my cheeks. It was so nice to see that each person, including my wife, is unique and has their own talents and gifts,  I also saw that Father God is extremely proud of His children and is really happy when they chose to work towards achieving the dreams He has given them.
Through these achieved dreams, more people will come to know Jesus as their Saviour, and these people to will also go on to achieve their God given goals. Hallellujah!

Destiny for Life is a good course. I found being able to combine the spiritual with the 'feet on the ground' practical approach very helpful. I choose to do this course because after attending the Heaven on Earth Conference last May at Ahoy, I became very enthusiastic about the work TRIN is doing. Despite doing a similar course at YWAM a few years ago, during which I  also did a DISC test to ascertain my gifts, talents  and passions, I really wanted to do this course as well. I think it is helpful so stop what one is doing every few years and ask 'Who am I? Where am I? Where am I going and how am I going to get there?

Too many people have dreams that they plan  to achieve 'one day' but unless they take practical steps to achieve them they will never see their dreams come true.‘Destiny for Life’ sends  you on a trip to explore your inner self so that in time, the results will show on the outside. 

I  wanted to do this course with my boyfriend so that we could learn more about our individual callings and each others dreams. The highpoint of the course for me was when  the drawings we had made to represent what we wanted to achieve in our futures, were interpreted and prayed over. I am currently devising a three year plan on how to achieve every thing  we spoke about.
The trainers are warm and genuine people who not only know what they are talking about but also live their lives according to what they teach.
