HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE
Michael Finger was part of our 2015
Internship Program. He currently
is employed as a Youth Ministry
Worker at One Community Church
as well as studying Education at
Monash University.
Why did you do the CYC Ministries
Internship? How did you most grow through your
time as a CYC Ministries Intern?
I saw the Internship as an opportunity to
challenge myself but also to gain some
Biblical knowledge. Given that it was my
first year out of school, I was aware that
I didn’t know a lot about why I believed
what I believed, so this was a perfect
chance to find that out for myself. I think the theological reflections we
did as a group were pretty powerful for
me. They forced me to take time out to
actually think deeply and question who
God is and how He was moving in my life.
What was a highlight for you? The most challenging thing for me
would have been facilitating a group of
young leaders in sharing their testimony
with the group. It was an incredible
experience, but pretty emotional stuff!
The highlight for me was definitely
attending the National Youth Ministry
Convention with the CYC Ministries staff
and interns. I also loved the weekly time
we had with the staff and other interns,
such a cool crew, and you make some
pretty special memories.

What most challenged you in your time
as a CYC Ministries Intern?
What would you say to someone who
was thinking about doing the CYC
Ministries internship?
If someone was considering the Internship
I would say, take a second to check your
heart, and ask yourself what is it that I want
to get out of this? If your posture is to learn
more about God and who he’s created you
to be, I don’t think you can go wrong!
