As a young adult PJ knew he was interested in missions. He carried that interest throughout a variety of life experiences, and even over a decade of pastoral ministry. But one thing proved pivotal in ultimately steering him toward a long-term commitment to the Great Commission: experiencing the mission field as a “short-termer.” PJ now serves as AIM’s Short-Term Program Director and we sat down with him to peel back the curtain on all things Short-Term and AIM. If you’ve ever wondered what our programs are designed to accomplish, what opportunities we have, or how we partner with long-term missionaries, this is the episode for you.

Explore some of AIM's Short-Term Opportunities.

Early in his career, God gave Billy a heart for young people, and the desire to help them unleash their God-given gifts and abilities for His global purposes.

He’s excited to walk with Gen Z and others to encourage them in their strengths as they seek to discover their part in God’s kingdom work.

What happens when two college students, a mom, and a teacher take the Perspectives course? What changed for them? What did they know about missions going into the course?
