LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
We are convinced that multiplied leaders leads to multiplied ministry. Whether it’s teachers, disciple-makers, deacons, small group leaders, future pastors, or missionaries, the Ministry of Leadership Development is committed to multiplying leaders that will serve the church so that the body will continue to be equipped to build itself up in love.

STRUCTURE
The structure is set up to be less formal, more relational. We will seek to center on transparent, open, honest relationships with the staff and the people of the church. Because ministry cannot be limited to a set schedule, the internship will require flexibility. Interns will need to aim to be disciplined self-starters who are faithful, cooperative, flexible, and discerning. Those who aggressively pursue the pastoral team and church leadership will be benefited greatly. In line with our church philosophy of investing in people rather than programs, interns must be devoted to prayer, the Word, and people.
