City on a Hill is passionate about

empowering and equipping the next

generation of leaders to impact our city

for the glory of God.

Engage2014

will provide emerging

leaders with the opportunity to engage the

scriptures, the mission field and their

calling as a leader.

WHAT IS ENGAGE?

ENGAGING THE SCRIPTURES

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correct-

ing and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly

equipped for every good work.” - 2 Timothy 3v16

At City on a Hill we believe God reveals Himself and His purpose for the

world in revelation of Jesus Christ and His Word (Old and New Testament).

The Bible is reliable, truthful and our final authority. Therefore, in additionto personal Bible study and devotion, Engage interns will be required to

enrol in a minimum of one subject at a theological college. Our preference

is Ridley Melbourne; subjects include Old and New Testament, Theology,

Youth Ministry, etc. (approx. 6 hours per week)

To find out more visit ridley.edu.au

ENGAGING THE MISSION FIELD

“Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I

send you.” - John 20v19-23

God loves Melbourne and is seeking to renew her for our good and His

glory. We therefore seek to be good missionaries who are connected with

our culture in order that we may communicate and demonstrate the

transformative power of the Gospel through word and deed.

• Engage interns will get some hands on experience alongside City on

a Hill pastors and ministry leaders. Depending on areas of interest,

need and gifting, interns will be able to engage in a range of areas, e.g.

community outreach, music and creative ministries, discipleship

training etc.

• Our expectation is that interns will allocate a minimum of eight hours

per week to practical ministry experience, in addition to being involved

at our Sunday services

ENGAGING LEADERSHIP

“It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evan-

gelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God’s people for works

of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in

the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining

to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.” - Ephesians 4v11-13

At City on a Hill we are committed to raising and training leaders who are

led by Jesus, lead like Jesus, and who lead others to Jesus.

• Engage interns will, as a group, participate in regular coaching sessions

with a City on a Hill pastor or sta ff to discuss leadership, spiritual

formation, and mission

• Reading material specific to Leadership and Mission will be provided

for the duration of the program

• Several written projects will also be undertaken, which again

encourage interns to explore minstry gifts and analyze the nature of

Christian leadership

• Interns will also be encouraged to find a personal mentor/coach to

provide additional support, accountability and spiritual direction

SUPPORT

Engage interns can apply for financial support to assist in study, travel

costs, etc. In addition, interns are encouraged to generate support through

personal fundraising.

POSITION DESCRIPTIONS

“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do

people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light

to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that

they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”

- Matthew 5v14-16
