FAQs

Who can apply to LEAD?

LEAD is designed for college-aged students ranging from 18-23 years old who display a strong desire to allow God to shape their life and are currently seeking opportunities to grow, lead, and serve others within their community.

When does LEAD begin and end?

LEAD is a ten-month internship that begins in August and concludes in May.

If I do not desire to enter full-time ministry, is LEAD still the place for me?

The goal of LEAD is to launch students further into the life and calling God has for them. Some graduates with a call to serve
in a local church may go on to pursue full-time occupational ministry. However, the goal of LEAD is to produce followers of
Christ who are equipped to lead and impact their world for Jesus in whatever field they are called to.

Is LEAD an accredited program?

The internship is not primarily an academic program. However, LEAD is a unique educational environment that will challenge you to know, understand, and defend a biblical worldview. Your academic experience takes place in a classroom setting and classes are through The King’s College. The King’s College is a Bible college founded by Pastor Jack Hayford and is dedicated to preparing men and women for effective leadership and Christ-like servanthood. The King’s College offers a certificate, an associate’s degree, and a bachelor’s degree in biblical studies, Christian ministry, and theological studies. The King’s College is nationally accredited by both the Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools (TRACS) and by The Association for Biblical Higher Education (ABHE). Both accreditation agencies are members of the Counsel for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) and recognized by the Department of Education.

I am not interested in attending LEAD but would like to be involved. How can I help?

If you have a passion to invest in the development of future leaders you can financially sponsor a student and provide a host home. Your investment will go towards tuition and living expenses for students who are devoting ten months of their lives
to personal development.

Where will I live?

You have the option of living at home or at provided host homes.
