Our Journey

Foundations That Formed Us

The Base began in 1994 as Jubilee Christian Fellowship in rural Fairfield, Iowa. In 1998, we expanded with the launch of Jubilee School of Ministry, which quickly grew into a global movement, establishing 12 international schools in its first year. Over time, this network expanded to 60 schools across eight nations.
From 2007 to 2009, The Base and its ministry students traveled throughout Iowa, leading powerful Awakening meetings. In October 2009, we relocated from our 30,000-square-foot facility in Fairfield to Des Moines, the state capital, to better serve Iowa from a central hub. This strategic move opened doors for weekly ministry at the Iowa State Capitol, central conferences, and the evolution of the School of Awakening into an international online platform now called Legacy School.
Today, The Base continues to impact both the nation and the world through ministry, travel, and a thriving global social media presence that reaches over 150 nations. This has expanded into a threefold ministry focus. 

A Threefold Strategy for Kingdom Awakening

There is a stirring happening in the hearts of many. A deep knowing—an unshakable awareness—that you were created for more. You love God, but you don’t fit the status quo. You’ve sensed a higher calling, yet finding a place where you truly belong has been a challenge. If that resonates with you, then we believe you’re exactly the kind of person we’re looking for.
At The Base, we are not building an institution. We are cultivating a movement—one designed to awaken hearts, equip leaders, and activate individuals into their Kingdom purpose. This is a call to those who feel the weight of something greater inside them, waiting to be unlocked. If that’s you, we invite you to step into a journey that could change everything.
Who We Are Looking For
We are searching for specific types of individuals—those whose hearts burn for more, who feel called to deeper purpose, and who are ready to step into their Kingdom assignment. This includes:
  • Those with orphaned hearts – You may feel disconnected, unseen, or longing for deeper healing. Yet, despite this, you carry a hunger for God and a desire to be fathered, mentored, and guided into wholeness.
  • Those with David-like hearts – You are passionate about God, but you don’t conform to traditional expectations. You may feel like an outsider in religious circles, but inside, you know you were made for something significant.
  • Those called to lead – You sense a pull toward leadership, but you need equipping, training, and mentorship to step fully into your calling. You don’t just want knowledge; you want transformation.
If you see yourself in any of these, we believe you are meant to be here.
How We Equip and Empower You
As illustrated in the image above, The Base  has created a threefold structure designed to meet you where you are and launch you into your full potential:
  1. The Base – A Place of Awakening
    Here, we help heal the brokenhearted, restore identity, and strengthen those who feel out of place in traditional structures. It’s a community where you can encounter God in a deeper way and discover who you truly are.
  2. Legacy School – A Training Ground for Leaders
    For those who desire to be equipped, Legacy School provides over 150 hours of online high-level teachings, access to ancient libraries, leadership tools, and practical wisdom to transform your life and ministry.
  3. Hebron Guild – A Relational Network for Activation
    Leadership isn’t meant to be a solo journey. Hebron Guild connects you with a global network of like-minded leaders, providing mentorship, collaboration, and activation into greater purpose.
Why This Matters
This is more than just a program—it’s a call to Kingdom awakening. The world doesn’t need more spectators; it needs pioneers, reformers, and leaders who are ready to shift atmospheres and bring transformation. We believe that by awakening hearts, training leaders, and activating purpose, we can build something that lasts—a movement that changes lives, churches, and nations.
If you’ve been searching for your place, wondering where you fit, or waiting for confirmation of what’s next—this is it. We are looking for people like you. The question is: Are you ready to step into your calling?

We are looking for You!

We are looking for those who sense the shift, those who refuse to settle for the ordinary because they were made for more. If your heart resonates with awakening, equipping, and activation, then you already belong here.
The Base is not a place; it’s a movement. Legacy School is not just education; it’s transformation. Hebron Guild is not a network; it’s a launching ground. Each ministry area is designed for those who dare to step beyond comfort into calling.
The call has been made. You’ve heard it in your spirit, felt it in the tension between where you are and where you know you’re meant to be. This is for the pioneers, the ones who won’t be tamed by tradition but are hungry for truth. The ones who feel like misfits in the world yet know they were made to lead.  If your heart is burning as you read this, then you already know—you were meant for this. The only question is, will you say yes?
