What is an Apprenticeship?

Current Apprentices

Christine Barham

Christine is Atlas’ senior apprentice! She began in the summer of 2022 and has loved every minute. Christine is passionate about welcoming people into Atlas. She loves asking weird questions and brewing coffee for students, with the ultimate goal of using hospitality as a tool to open up people’s hearts to Jesus. She loves hearing students’ thoughts and questions as they grow in their understanding and watching them invite others in because of what Jesus has done. Outside of work, she enjoys playing flute in the Lubbock Civic Orchestra, upping her at-home barista skills, and playing with her fluffy calico cat, Pebbles.

“Our campus ministry believes that discipleship is God’s primary work. Reproducing other followers of Christ is so important. And reproducing other campus ministers and ministries may be one of the most crucial roles we can play in bringing glory to God. Our apprentice program here at Atlas is our attempt to be proactive in this important task. We need partners to make this work.  We would love it if you can partner with us in this worthwhile ministry.”
