Candidate Expectations
The training regimen during Fusion can be rigorous. During Ground School, the schedule will include early rising for personal Bible study and quiet times, physical training, and inspection of living areas. Weekly corporate worship opportunities will be provided and participation is expected. Physical training opportunities will be provided for candidates and administered at their physical level.
The reason Fusion keeps a strict regimen early on can be found in 1 Corinthians 9:27 and 1 Timothy 4:7. We are told by Paul to “discipline our bodies” and to “discipline ourselves for the purpose of Godliness.” According to 1 Corinthians, through overcoming hardships, whether engineered by Fusion or brought on by a student’s own personal struggles, Godly life change is achieved as students realize they can no longer live or serve with an insincere or trivial spirit. It is imperative that everyone attending Fusion understand that they must be flexible and have a sincere commitment to personal and spiritual growth. Further, corporate discipline with a specific purpose and direction has a direct impact on a person’s ability to establish and maintain personal spiritual disciplines in keeping with 1 Timothy. It is through this discipline that candidates begin to recognize what motivates them and what they truly hold as their core values.
