Community Pastor

The Community Pastor serves to lead the overall Community ministry and develop Associate Community Pastors and Community Interns

Our Community team leads our church to follow Jesus and love our neighbors through the power of community. We accomplish this by focusing on three areas of ministry:
Life Groups, where we help people find community, Local Missions, where we help people serve their community and the Get Connected Space, where we help people get connected within our community.

rch, we exist to lead people to become fully devoted followers of Christ. It’s been our mission since 1996 and has guided us every day. Leading people isn’t just an expectation; it’s a necessity. It’s a cornerstone of our culture. That's why we’re always seeking leaders—leaders like you to bring your skills to life. We are one church meeting in multiple locations, and we want to help you become the person God made you to be.

Church location so they can learn the culture and systems of our church from experienced pastors already on the team. Our hope is, as we continue to launch new locations, we can send pastors who are ready to lead on day one because of what they’ve learned at an existing location in preparation.
