      The his heart my voice internship is a 6 month experience in Kenya that is full of real life struggles and spiritually deep challenges. Daily life is often slow, true to Kenyan life, but engaging beyond ones normal perception of the purpose and meaning of life as a Christian social activist. Interns have both house duties and daily jobs around the campus, and will attend weekly church at Heaven's Gate Assembly in Thika, Kenya.

      The his heart my voice internship has four main purposes.

      First is to watch firsthand what it is like to live as a Christian social activist. Interns live on site with the Richardson family seeing every moment of thier lives. The good and the bad days.

      Second is to learn to be a disciple of Jesus. Weekly classes for learning the basic and foundations of Chrisianity and applying this discipleship to their lives so they will become a disciple of Jesus and in the future make disciples.

      Third is to learn to live by faith trusting in God to provide and guide during daily life.

      Fourth is to engage individuals from the slums, street kids, and everyday neighbors in the city to get to know their struggles and learn to become their advocates and friends.

 

Therefore go and
make disciples of
all the nations
Matthew 28:19

Required Reading in the HHMV Internship
 
Brother Andrew's - "God's Smuggler"
   Also known as "The Narrow Road"
 
This Book was written in 1967 and follows one man's story of how God called him and taught him to live by faith. The life that Brother Andrew is living is an example to modern-day Christians to see that faith and following Jesus is still a reality today.
 

 
John Bevere's - "Driven by Eternity"
 
In this book, Brevere tells an interesting allegory of a world and the judgments that follow in their eternity opening our eyes to see what the bible has to say about our own lives and our future judgment. A great book for helping us analyze our own conscience, motives, character and soul.
