Answering the Call: The New Life Church Residency Program
Several years ago, the Consistory and leadership of New Life Church in Sioux Center, Iowa, felt called to cast a vision to become a sending church. After faithfully sending people into the mission field, they expanded that vision to not only to send people into missions, but also to raise up pastors from within their own congregation. From that calling, the New Life Residency Program was born.
The New Life Residency Program exists to glorify God by developing the next generation of leaders, pastors, and missionaries who will help people find new life in Christ through proclaiming the Gospel to the world.
Recently, Pastors Bobby Van Otterloo and Josh Vermeer sat down with two current residents, Chris and Jacob, to chat about how the program is helping to define their call into ministry and impacting their lives. You can hear their insightful conversation on New Life Church’s podcast, Committed to Growth.
