Join the RTB Team

Reasons to Believe

Reasons to Believe is an international, outreach-oriented, science apologetics ministry. We exist to inspire confident faith in the personal, transcendent God revealed in both Scripture and nature. We are seeking talented, innovative, mission-minded individuals who desire to use their God-given strengths in a challenging, collaborative, creative, fun, and thriving work environment. Join the RTB team and be part of a tightly knit community where work is life-giving, where staff members are valued for their unique contributions, where creativity and out-of-the-box thinking is encouraged, and where staff development and growth are seen as a key to success.

SPEAK TRUTH WITH GENTLENESS AND RESPECT

At RTB, we understand that people observe attitude and demeanor as much as they listen to words; thus, we live out 1 Peter 3:15-16 both inside and outside the workplace. Whether we are helping someone come closer to the cross or discussing ideas with a teammate, we maintain an approachable manner, speaking truth with kindness, listening attentively, and treating others fairly and respectfully.

THINK BEYOND

At RTB, thinking beyond means we think beyond the status quo and embrace change with a willingness to risk failure. We are bold but not reckless. We take initiative to find solutions and focus on possibilities more than on problems. We use our gifts wisely to discover more efficient avenues to advance RTB’s mission and inspire others to do the same (Romans 12:4–5). We hold a posture of innovation, curiosity, and flexibility, and we create space to explore diverse thoughts and creative options. We encourage all staff to cultivate a love of learning and to view personal growth and development as keys to success.

ADVANCE TOGETHER

At RTB, we believe the best about, want the best for, and expect the best from each other. We foster an environment of teamwork and cultivate meaningful relationships within the bounds of professionalism. This means we exemplify maturity, self-awareness, and emotional intelligence (showing humility, empathy, and resilience) in our interactions (1 Peter 4:10–11). In discussions and decision-making, we value the collaborative process and challenge ideas respectfully. Once a decision is made, we unite and commit to effective implementation. We celebrate together, pray for one another, applaud each other’s achievements, and encourage unity through sharing information and expertise (Hebrews 10:24).

RADIATE INTEGRITY

At RTB, we produce exemplary work not to please others but to honor the Lord (Colossians 3:23). We prize ethical virtue and make personal integrity a priority in everything we do (1 Peter 2:9). Whether it’s the integrity of our words, work, or spiritual walk, we all hold each other accountable and believe in a balance of grace and truth that builds trust and promotes productivity. We offer honest, specific feedback, not just when convenient, and we resolve disagreements in a timely, constructive manner (Matthew 18:15). We avoid gossip, act as advocates of reconciliation whenever we witness conversations that are not edifying, and rely on the Holy Spirit to help us radiate Christlike character in all our interactions.

Testimonies

“People are often curious about where I work. Sometimes it’s because they see a picture of a group of my coworkers sporting genuine smiles and plates full of delicious food. Sometimes it’s because they wonder what sort of employer would allow their employees to have pink hair. Sometimes it’s because they find an RTB video, podcast, or article shared on social media and wonder how such thoughtful, intelligent content can come from joyful, relatable, sometimes goofy people. From the asker's experience, coworkers can’t genuinely like each other, people with brightly colored hair can’t be taken seriously, and the cerebral are stodgy and dull. But the truth is RTB is a place that cherishes its staff like family, values expression and creativity, and drives science-faith conversations, always with gentleness and respect. Yes, it’s possible to work hard and love what you do. We get to do Kingdom work in a fun and fulfilling environment. What more can you ask for? Doughnuts? We’ve got those too!”

— Sandra Dimas, Editorial Director

“There are lots of places to work or even to have a decent career. If you find a Christian organization that shares your values, the satisfaction level goes higher still. Reasons to Believe exceeds even that. RTB fosters an environment where your skills are realized, your mind is engaged, your coworkers will become dear friends, and your work will be extremely satisfying as you quickly discover how God uses your talents to accomplish his purposes in this world. Join the RTB team and find out why the turnover is so low!”

— Joe Aguirre, Senior Editor

“Reasons to Believe is truly a Christ-centered workplace that practices what it preaches. Coworkers (who are actually dear friends) treat each other with love and respect and encourage each other to accomplish the mission set before us. One of the many reasons I truly value RTB is that the leadership not only allows but encourages you to use your God-given gifts and talents.”

— Karina Rodriguez, Marketing Director

“There are several things I appreciate about working for RTB. First, I appreciate the example that Dr. Hugh Ross presents as someone who is wholeheartedly committed to the inerrancy, infallibility, and consistency of Scripture. He models this in his personal life and in all that he writes and speaks about. Secondly, I appreciate the Rosses’ commitment to prayer. Encouragement of prayer by staff during the work day as well as conducting prayer and fast events at certain times of the year have been a priority since the beginning of the ministry. Finally, I appreciate RTB’s flexibility toward the staff’s work schedules. Being allowed to sometimes work from home, if the position allows, or to reconfigure work hours, has always been a hallmark of the ministry.”

— Bob Stuart, Visiting Scholar Community Manager

“Read any reputable business leadership book and you will hear how important company culture is. I can say that Reasons to Believe definitely embodies that truth and provides an unmatched work environment that is fulfilling and challenging, where the leadership strives to connect your passions with your work.”

— Aaron Kenny, Webmaster

“When I joined the Reasons to Believe team, I joined a community of intelligent, highly capable, Christ-centered believers who are united by one common goal—to see lives transformed by the gospel. Working here, I know that my contributions have lasting impact and that I am a part of something so much bigger than myself. Since I began my journey with RTB, I’ve become a better person. This is because RTB fosters an environment where lifelong learning is encouraged, where career and self-development are cultivated, where your strengths are maximized, and where work/life balance is valued. There are many reasons to work at RTB, but one of the most inspiring is that we nurture deep relationships that allow us to have fun while serving alongside each other. You might enter the team as a colleague but quickly find you’ve become a dear friend.”

— Yeilen Willis, Human Resources Director

“After two decades of working at Reasons to Believe, allow me to offer...

1. RTB prizes virtue: RTB as an organization prizes ethical virtue and moral conduct among its employees. Working in an environment that encourages its workers to pursue moral virtue is both challenging and rewarding. While I am far from a perfect person, I appreciate RTB inspiring me to make personal integrity a part of everything I do.

2. RTB prizes teamwork: RTB asks all of its employees to work together as a team. Thus, deference, cooperation, and sacrifice are viewed as critical skills and qualities. I appreciate this team-oriented work environment because its importance carries over into other areas of life. Families, churches, and nations function optimally when there is an emphasis upon cooperation and unity.

3. RTB prizes growth: All of us want to grow as people and in terms of our work and vocation in life. RTB encourages and gives its employees opportunities to grow as individuals and to develop their careers. This emphasis upon growth has allowed RTB to maintain many of its employees over the long term.”

— Kenneth Samples, Senior Research Scholar

“The employees here at RTB not only work diligently toward the mission of RTB, but also live it in their daily lives. Our distinctive core values are evident in what we say, how we say it, and how we live it. Run into an RTB employee off hours and you’ll see the culture and character of RTB evident in their lives. Our mission is to spread the Christian gospel, and that is being done both corporately as well as personally.”

— Ken Hultgren, Advancement Director
