Deeper leaders: Bringing Christ to the workplace and the cookout

Deeper Leaders are driven by a profound sense of calling. The reasons behind their decision to dedicate so much time and energy without any compensation are as unique as the leaders themselves.

All Deeper Leaders share a unified purpose: a wholehearted, 100% commitment to the young adults they serve. They willingly invest their time, energy, and care into building meaningful relationships that that lead others towards faith in Jesus and a home in the local Church. For these leaders, the reward lies in the impact they make on the lives of coworkers, friends, teammates, and family members and the chance to be Christ-like in a world that often feels uncertain.

The spiritual, emotional, and physical safety of young adults in our ministry is our top priority. That’s why we take great care in vetting every Deeper Leader.

All prospective volunteers start as candidates and undergo an eight-week training program. During this time, they attend all sessions, where their conduct and interactions are closely evaluated.

After training, candidates apply to become leaders. We contact their references, conduct a background check, and hold a final interview with staff, leaders, and community members.

Only those who gain full confidence at every stage are granted the title of Deeper Leader, ensuring they’re fully equipped to serve and support those in our ministry.

Deeper Leaders stand out for their unwavering commitment to the Gospel. They show up for people in their world and in our ministry. Through genuine, life-on-life discipleship, they mentor young adults as true friends—standing by them through the highs and lows, always looking out for their best interests. Leaders share the Christian faith by first living it out as an example in their own lives.
