Experiences from Our Interns
-
“I am super grateful for the opportunity to serve God through working here at Answers in Genesis. As a web developer intern, I have been able to work on projects that will truly bring the gospel to more and more people throughout the whole world. This alone has made my time here worth it, but there is so much more! The Christian community here is top-tier; it is extremely welcoming and fun, while also pushing me to grow in my faith and understanding of the Bible. I’ve made lasting friendships and memories I’ll never forget. I implore all students to pray about how you can bring glory to God through joining the Embark program here at Answers in Genesis—you won’t regret it!”

“It has been such an amazing experience working for Answers in Genesis under the Embark program! I’ve gotten incredible opportunities to learn, develop my skills, and see what it takes to run a ministry as large as Answers in Genesis. The work environment is wonderful, and it is very encouraging to be surrounded by like-minded people who love God and who are working toward a common goal.
Working in the Programs department has been inspiring for me. Because I’m a biology major in college, it has been neat to use what I know about God’s creation and be involved in teaching the guests who come to learn about it. I was involved in content creating and presenting. This experience grew my skills and taught me about what it takes to make information understandable and top quality for guests. I even developed my own Discover program and presented it to guests. This has been an amazing opportunity to strengthen and develop my teaching skills. I was also given the amazing opportunity to write several articles for Answers magazine and Kids Answers mini-magazine. Being a part of creating written content has helped my writing and communication skills grow.
I would recommend this internship to any student in STEM who has a passion to teach others about the amazing way God has created the world!”

“It has been a huge blessing to be a part of the Answers in Genesis Embark program! During my internship as an assistant buyer in retail, I was able to gain practical experience in a variety of areas related to my field of study. My team was so welcoming and more than willing to teach me the many complex aspects of retail at AiG. The general culture of AiG has greatly encouraged and strengthened me in my walk with Christ. The freedom to talk about the Lord and pray together through work challenges is amazing. There’s really nothing else quite like it. If you’re serious about serving God, learning new skills for his glory, and having your faith strengthened, then I would greatly recommend the Answers in Genesis Embark program!”

A Note from Ken
Proverbs 3:27 is one of my favorite passages of Scripture on leadership. It reads, "Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it." Embark, the Answers in Genesis internship program, honors that in a way I find quite exciting.
Equipping the next generation of Christian leaders has always been a priority for Answers in Genesis, and this program continues that commitment. Embark is designed to develop students professionally, personally, and spiritually through apologetics training and hands-on opportunities that only we can provide. I recommend you encourage all your students to consider an Embark internship with AiG no matter their degree pursuit.
