Known for its vibrant diversity, the Christ Community family includes people of all ages, backgrounds, and places in their faith journey, including the spiritually curious as well as the spiritually committed. The church loves being “a restorer of broken walls” and is deeply invested in its community, seen beautifully through Zoë’s Café, its non‑profit downtown coffee shop and event center in addition to many other expressions of local outreach.

What truly sets Christ Community apart is its commitment to being Spirit-empowered and people-centered. Valuing humility, vulnerability, and authenticity, the church embraces a unique blend of theological depth with an openness to mystery over certainty. Transformation is sought through experiential encounters with Jesus that engage both mind and heart. It’s a place where you’ll feel a genuine hunger for God’s presence, where the congregation’s worshipful singing is a cherished experience, and where a collaborative staff fosters a true sense of family.

The High School Pastor at Christ Community Church is a deeply relational, emotionally healthy leader called to create a genuine sense of family for students and volunteers alike. Rather than simply running programs and events, this pastor is expected to actively pursue teenagers in their everyday environments, ensuring that every student feels seen, known, and valued regardless of their background or spiritual starting point.

At its core, this role is about guiding students toward an authentic faith in Jesus through meaningful personal connections, compassionate theological curiosity, and hands‑on missional experiences. By pouring into a collaborative team of volunteer leaders and honoring diverse perspectives, the High School Pastor builds a safe, inclusive community where students are not just spectators, but are empowered to grow spiritually, wrestle with deep questions, and become active leaders within the broader church.
