The Northside Residency Program is an 11-month program to equip and launch individuals who have a clear calling to full-time ministry. Our goal is to develop a surplus of Kingdom workers with the skills and experience needed for long-term ministry effectiveness. This is done through the following four key components:
- Hands-on experience with a specific ministry
- Coaching/mentoring from experienced staff
- Practical ministry and leadership development with a cohort of other residents
- Northside U courses for continued learning.
Residents must have a clear calling to full-time ministry AND be 21 years of age or older. Non-Northside applicants must have a bachelor’s degree or relevant experience in the area of their ministry pursuit.
Weekly Hours & TermAltogether, residents should expect to commit a total of 25 hours per week: 16 hours per week in a specialized ministry to gain ministry experience, 2 hours of coaching/mentoring, 2 hours of development in a cohort, and approximately 5 hours of continued education. Specific work schedules are unique to each ministry. Most require weekend commitments. Residents are free to hold additional employment, provided that the residency is priority and your other employment does not interfere with residency expectations.
Residency cohorts begin mid-June and conclude mid-May.
