Northplace Residency

NEXT GENERATION

LEADERSHIP PROGRAM

In partnership with Southeastern University and Southwestern Assemblies of God University (SAGU), Bible-based universities, you can gain incredible ministry leadership experience while also earning your master’s degree, and we will pay for your education!! That’s right! We have secured funding that will allow us to accept a very limited number of exceptional young leaders who are passionate about their calling and are willing to serve the local church as an emerging leader for an emerging generation.

Through this residency model, Northplace Church will provide mentoring, ministry, and leadership development opportunities for every student. We are committed to offering students the very best integrated learning program possible, where you can gain valuable experience in a life-changing church culture, while also earning a Masters degree. Through SEU, we offer you a Master of Arts in Ministerial Leadership Degree with four concentration options: 1. Ministry, 2. Leadership, 3. Family Ministry, or 4. Pastoral Care & Counseling or a Masters of Divinity Degree. Through SAGU, we offer you a Masters in Organizational Leadership Degree.

WE WILL PAY FOR YOUR EDUCATION!

"I remember hearing Pastor Bryan mention that the Northplace Residency program will accelerate our professional careers by a decade or more and I can attest to this! I recently took over the Guest Services team [at my church], and we are operating it like a campus. My team and I are creating systems and strategies that can be implemented across all of our campuses. I get to lead the largest team in our church, and we're growing! I wake up every morning wondering how I got here. Immediately I think about the Residency program and Pastor Bryan's words. The Residency truly prepared me for this season of my life and how to lead and serve my team.

I can't thank Northplace or leadership enough. Words truly fall short. I am where I am because of [it]."
