CORE VALUES
The following core values are qualities and actions that both the staff and academy students aspire to and promote in their daily lives. These values permeate all that we do, with the hope that they will transcend the IMA Program and overflow into every area of their lives thereafter. These values, when internalized, become a great mark on the students’ leadership skills and their effectiveness.
• Full devotion to Christ
• Passionate Worship
• Reaching and teaching the next generation
• Loving community
• Authority of God’s Word
• Worldwide Evangelism
• Faithfulness
• Integrity
• Fun
WHAT WE DO
The IMA will lay a foundation for your life that will set you up for success in your ministry, family, career, and spiritual life. Students are provided with classes to expand their knowledge of the Bible's workings and the wisdom it offers. Staff members will empower students to take on positions of leadership as well as disciple them daily via meetings, one-on-one time, and prayer.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The total cost of the internship is $3000. This will cover your classes, three amazing adventure trips, tickets to all Cornerstone Church conferences and events (during your internship), and any other resources you will receive.
During this season, you will be full-time ministers to youth and young adults. You are expected to lead, be an example, and be a servant during this internship. Students will be expected to complete their designated hours of CLST classes and applied work. You will read relevant books, watch powerful video classes, and memorize scriptures. You are expected to assist in setting up, breaking down, and running large events, as well as regular services. Lastly, IMA students are expected to hold themselves to a standard of excellence in character and spirit.
