Developing the Next Generation of Ministry Leaders Through Hand-on Experience and Personal Development

The Doxology residency is a 2–4-year program designed for emerging leaders who feel called to vocational church ministry. We want to help develop the future pastors, teachers, and ministry directors by giving them a place to grow and learn through hands-on ministry experience and intentional personal development. We believe these experiences will develop future leaders for a lifetime of ministry significance.

Residents apply to serve in a specific ministry of the church: college, youth, worship, creative, children’s, executive, and others. As a resident, you will receive hands-on experience and training in this specific ministry area, as well as being mentored by the Doxology staff member who leads your area. You will also pursue personal ministry relationships within the church body and have the opportunity to develop your teaching skills and experience church-wide ministry opportunities such as baptisms, hospital visits, counseling, and performing weddings.
