Why Choose a Lifeway Summer Internship?

Professional Development

We offer weekly development sessions led by a variety of directors and team leaders from across the company. These sessions are planned intentionally to develop interns personally as well as professionally.

Leadership Development

Lifeway has a team dedicated to developing leaders in the church and in the company, and we take it very seriously. We will help each intern discover and develop leadership skills for the sake of professional and ministry success.

Responsibility

At LifeWay, interns are valuable team members who are given significant projects and responsibilities. Interns offer integral contributions and are not just tasked with busy work.

Spiritual Development

Interns can participate in Lifeway Chapel twice a month and in an internship small group weekly. In addition, we provide the opportunity for interns to learn more about their spiritual gifts.

An Awesome City

Nashville is one of the fastest growing and most visited cities in the United States, and Lifeway sits in the heart of it. Interning here puts you in a cultural hub with all the energy, culture, and professional benefits that go with it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I choose Lifeway’s internship program?

Lifeway’s internship program is unique in that we not only provide relevant professional training, but we also incorporate development sessions designed to help our interns learn about themselves, how they function with other people, and what those two things mean for them personally and in a work environment. Lifeway interns are teammates who are given projects to oversee and complete that have an impact on the business of Lifeway.

Who is eligible for the internship program?

Candidates must be currently enrolled at a college or university in an undergraduate or graduate program, and have fully completed at least two years of study.  Recent graduates are eligible if they graduated the semester immediately prior (December or May graduates only).

Is this a paid internship?

Yes. Interns will be paid an hourly rate for the hours they work. Benefits will not be provided.

Does Lifeway provide housing?

No. Interns are responsible for securing their own housing. However, Lifeway will provide a few resources interns can use to find summer housing. And, we will connect the summer interns with each other in case anyone’s looking for a roommate.

The summer internship is typically 10 weeks beginning in June and ending in August.

Each intern’s schedule will look different based on the rhythm of the team he/she works with. Core hours will typically be Monday-Thursday with some opportunities to work remotely. All interns attend weekly development sessions on Tuesday mornings.

How many hours per week will I work?

Each intern will work a total of 320 hours over the course of the summer. The weekly hours will look different for each intern depending on the events or special projects his or her team has scheduled. On average, interns will work about 32 hours a week.
