Note from Lead Pastor

The job description may seem pretty huge. That's why a conversation would be helpful.

 

  • In the discipleship areas, I already do most of these things and will keep doing many as we collaborate together. So part of this job description will be shared by me.
  • Preaching is very flexible. It's in there if the person wants to develop in this area, but it's not absolutely necessary.
  • We will want to have a conversation about our discipleship huddles, which form the foundation of all of our disciple-making efforts. It is the best discipleship tool I have ever experienced.

 

To me, the collaboration piece is HUGE. It will allow us to:

  • Be better together than as individuals.
  • Be united in vision and communication at all times.
  • Free each of us to be empowered and freed up to serve according to our gifts and abilities.
Requested Documents
  1. Resume
  2. Cover letter with doctrinal statement, bio and Audio/video links of sermon/teaching/worship leading (if available) 
One may receive a request to answer other questions.
