Position Overview:

Youth Dynamics envisions youth transformed by the power of Christ, integrated into the local church, and impacting their world for Him. This full-time ministry position supports this vision by writing, producing, and sharing Youth Dynamics' many stories. It is funded through personal support-raising.

Youth Dynamics is seeking a full-time multimedia professional with strong writing and video skills to help capture and share the ministry's impact with various audiences. We are looking for an inquisitive writer and videographer to learn and help capture our overall story and then share it through various platforms, including email, blog, newsletter, website, social media, video, photography, and podcasting.
