As a prospective leader in InterVarsity, you are preparing for serious spiritual responsibilities. You will be expected to exemplify Christ-like character (1 Peter 5:1-6; 1 Timothy 4:12), to maintain sound doctrine (2 Timothy 1:13-14), and to actively engage in proclaiming Christ’s Word (2 Timothy 4:2, 5). Scripture sets forth a high standard for Christian leaders. Please study the following passages before continuing: 1 Timothy 3:1-13, Titus 1:6-9, Hebrews 13:7, 17.

On a separate sheet of paper which you will not turn in, please make some notes about the characteristics of Christian leaders that appear in the 7 scripture passages mentioned above.

If you feel called to a position that isn’t listed, please describe it. We want you to be in the best position to help the Rose-Hulman community grow in love for God and for people using the gifts and talents He has given you.
