Michal Whitlock
Resident Coordinator
The Resident Program at Perimeter Church exists to equip young leaders for vocational ministry. We use practical, hands-on ministry experience as a platform for ministry skill development. The two-year program includes theological training, exposure to life-on-life missional discipleship, mentorship, and a full-time job within one of the ministries of Perimeter. Our hope is that each resident would be sent out well-equipped to serve the local church.
Jesus taught His disciples, personally mentoring them and giving them access to His life. He also immersed His disciples in real-life mission. As a resident, you will experience Perimeter’s thoughtful and intentional method of disciple making and training, receive valuable teaching from ministry leaders in Biblical study and ministry topics, and do meaningful work in a specific department within the church.
Equipping residents in biblical and theological knowledge to develop and reinforce a Christ-centered approach to vocational ministry.
Perimeter’s main focus is transformation through Life-on-Life Missional Discipleship (LOLMD). LOLMD follows the Biblical model laid out by Jesus and how He developed His disciples. As a resident, you will get to experience this firsthand both by being in a discipleship group and having the opportunity to lead a group for students.
The work of a resident is important and purposeful. As a resident, you will work within crucial roles to ensure you grow in your skills and abilities, and the ministry of the church can function to most effectively impact God’s Kingdom.
