RESIDENCIES

Experience is good.
Evaluated experience is best.

The residency program is a dedicated season of training designed to prepare you for the ministry God is calling you to. Residencies can be 12 or 24 months in length. Residents will focus their energy in a particular ministry area but will receive a broad range of experience in all aspects of church leadership. Each ministry residency is built around the candidate to help them achieve their ministry goals.

  • Evaluated, practical ministry experience
  • Theological development and sharpening
  • Focused leadership training
  • Opportunities to lead special projects and initiatives
  • Outside opportunities including conferences, events, and conventions
  • Invitation to staff and leadership meetings
  • A dedicated ministry mentor
  • Opportunity to earn seminary credit
