RESIDENCY & INTERNSHIP PROGRAMS

 

Three, two, one…

 

Launch Leadership is a program of Destiny Church. We are launching next-generation leaders and Christ-followers into church ministry, and beyond. This is happening through cohort-based residencies and internships that prepare people for a lifetime of Jesus-centered ministry, in the church, in sports, in the arts, the marketplace and the community.

 

Our Residency Program is a two-year experience that provides leadership training, practical ministry and/or marketplace experience in a sports and/or arts context, along with continuing education. Options for continuing education include: 1) A master’s degree through Crown College's online program; 2) Certification through Alliance Center for Leadership Development's School of Ministry or the LEAD Program; or 3) An Associates Degree through Crown College or Cuyahoga Community College. We cover the cost!

 

Our Internship Program is similar, but with shorter timeframes based on student availability and our needs, and without online academic study. However, we can work with your college counselor or professor to help you earn credit towards your degree program.

 

We are looking for people who desire to integrate life and faith, are excited to learn, and be developed holistically.
