CAREERS WITH InnerLife

Come Serve with Us

We're glad you're here.

At InnerLife, we are on a mission to help every Christian spiritually, emotionally, and relationally mature in Christ.


For us, that means intentionally addressing what we call the 4 enemies of the inner life:

  1. Unconfessed Sin
  2. Unhealed Pain
  3. Unrecognized Lies (about God, ourselves, the world)
  4. Underdeveloped Skills (emotional, relational, spiritual)


The church longs to help people in these areas, but Sunday sermons and small groups alone often are not designed to address these deeper issues  in a systematic way. InnerLife equips churches with a practical discipleship journey that helps people experience meaningful, lasting transformation in their lives and relationships through the gospel.


In short, we desire that every church and campus ministry have a place where people can experience freedom, growth, and healing in Christ.

Questions you might have:

  • Are you affiliated with any church denomination?

    We were birthed out of the Cru movement some 15 years ago, and that has shaped some of our thinking and DNA. We squarely hold to historic Protestant Christianity.


    That said, InnerLife as an organization does not hold a defined theological position on matters such as: specific soteriology, eschatology, the use of charismatic gifts, and similar secondary issues.


    Because of that, our staff hold differing views on these various positions as well, all unified by historic Christian orthodoxy and a shared mission.


    That has allowed us to serve churches from a wide variety of streams, including Presbyterian, Bible Churches, Baptist, Pentecostal, non-denominational, and many others.

  • How does InnerLife measure “success”?

    At InnerLife, we think about success in two ways: the health of our team and the fruitfulness of the ministry we are building together.


    #1 - Success is our staff living deeply rooted lives with Christ and in harmony with one another.


    We pay attention to whether we are building and sustaining a culture that supports that kind of life:

    • We consistently arrange our lives in ways that lead toward spiritual, emotional, and relational health and maturity.
    • We are deeply rooted in prayer.
    • We practice and enjoy God’s rest through sabbath and healthy rhythms of work and home life.
    • Our ministry work flows out of trust in and reliance on God.
    • Staff have clarity around their responsibilities and rhythms, feel equipped to do their work well, and are encouraged and celebrated in that work.

    #2 - Success is helping Christian leaders create safe group environments and community-oriented discipleship processes that help people engage the truth of the gospel in the chasm between head and heart knowledge.


    We pay attention to things like:

    • Whether the material and process are genuinely helping people experience real transformation.
    • Whether facilitators are being trained and cared for well.
    • Whether more people are being reached and served through the process.

    Because of that, we are always working to:

    1. Make the material and group process more effective in meeting the needs of participants and helping them experience meaningful, lasting change.
    2. Serve our volunteer facilitators and church partners with increasing excellence.
    3. Help more people go through Untying the Knots of the Heart so more lives are impacted.

  • What type of people are you looking for?

    This work tends to resonate with people who love…

    • helping people follow Jesus in deeper, truer ways
    • discipleship that reaches beneath the surface ... deeper than just information, activity, or behavior management
    • seeing men and women healed, restored, and set free in Christ
    • the beauty, freedom, and life that come from knowing Jesus as he really is
    • serving the church with wisdom, humility, and theological depth
    • building something meaningful with a small team that cares about real transformation

  • How are InnerLife staff funded?

    Like many missions organizations, our full-time staff build a team of financial and prayer partners.


    We are grateful to say, thanks to the generosity of a few donors, we are able to offer staff the following benefits:

    • 0% administrative fees on all donations 
    • No credit card processing fees
    • No-cost donor update printing

  • Does InnerLife's team work remotely?

    While our offices are based in Boise, Idaho, most of our team works remotely. 


    We desire for our ministry to grow in fruitfulness and faithfulness. In order to steward our time and resources wisely, we do have guardrails and shared expectations that help us work together effectively as a remote team.


    Because much of our day-to-day work happens on a computer, each staff member is also asked to facilitate one Untying the Knots of the Heart group per year. This keeps us close to the heart of the ministry -- giving us a real pulse on the material while connecting us to our why, the people. This group can be led online or in person in your community. For many of us, it's the best part of our work week. 


    We gather together as a team, twice per year, for one staff retreat, and one training/conference.
