Interns serving with Joni and Friends will receive theological training, personal mentorship, and hands-on experience in the mission field, preparing to live out Christ’s call on their lives. Every intern at Joni and Friends will use their gifts and talents to bring practical help and Gospel hope to people living with disabilities.

Theological Training:
Interns will receive training on the biblical view of disability and a theology of suffering through Beyond Suffering. Then, in practical application of their learning, interns will serve people living with disability through the local church. Beyond Suffering is the flagship curriculum of The Joni and Friends Christian Institute on Disability. This core text aims to transform the way Christians view God’s plan for disability and suffering through biblical education on the theology of suffering.

Practical Application:
All interns have the opportunity to use their gifts and skillsets to serve their team and people living with disability.

Mentoring:
Interns will be mentored and challenged to implement disability ministry as part of their life calling, and learn what it means to be a servant leader.
