THE BIG PICTURE

ONE CHURCH in Murfreesboro, Tennessee is ready to plant again—and they're looking for a Bilingual Campus Pastor who's wired for preaching, pastoring, and building something new from the ground up. This isn't just a fill-the-slot role; it's a chance to be part of a church-planting movement that's taking shape across one of the fastest-growing counties in the U.S.

ONE CHURCH recognizes our rapidly growing hispanic community. We also recognize that many 1st and 2nd generation hispanic families are strugling to find a church where parents and/or grandparents (who primarily speak Spanish) can attend with their children/grandchildren who go to US public schools and primarily speak English. This dynamic is a challenge for many families who have moved to the United States within the last 25 years.

THE VISION

Upon consultation with many Spanish-speaking pastors and church consultants, ONE CHURCH seeks to do something unique. We are looking for a pastor who can effectively communicate in Spanish during a 9am worship service, then provide a service in English at a 10:30am. While the 9am Spanish worship service is being held, there will be relational small groups in English (for teens and those who communicate primarily in English). While the 10:30am English-speaking worship service is being held, there will be relational small groups in Spanish for those who have attended the 9am worship service. From 9am-11:45am, an English speaking children's Sunday School will be provided. This service structure will allow multi-generational families to ride to and attend church together even though they may attend different services while they are there.

9am – Worship Service in Spanish / English Speaking Small Groups

10:30am – Worship Service in English / Spanish Speaking Small Groups

9am-11:45am – Children's Sunday School (In English; some ESL)

The prospective pastor will begin this mission by serving on the team at the original Murfreesboro campus, getting to know the culture, people, and systems of One Church. Over the course of 6–9 months, they'll begin building a launch team made up of people already in the church—many of whom are driving 20–30 minutes across town just to gather each week. The vision? Launch a new campus (think: ONE CHURCH – Smyrna or ONE CHURCH – Antioch) in one of these growing communities with 100+ people who are already aligned with the mission.

The Role

Here's what the first year will look like:

• Serve at the Calvary Campus, learning the ropes and building trust with the current team.
• Identify and equip leaders (worship, kids, students) through One Church's Leadership Pipeline.
• Build relationships with the hispanic community and gather a launch team for a brand-new campus.
• After 9-12 months, you will preach, shepherd, and lead the new campus to launch.
• Collaborate with other Campus Pastors and the Senior Pastor on preaching, planning, and big-picture strategy.
• Rotate pulpits a few times a year to maintain unity across campuses.
• Help shape the long-term dream: 6 strong campuses planting a 7th by the end of 2030.
• Each new campus is supported with up to $1 million from the One Church network to help it start strong and stay healthy.

Who We're Looking For

• A bilingual pastor with a strong ability to teach God's Word and sense of calling from the LORD.
• A pastor who meets the biblical qualifications in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1 and wants to live in long-term accountability with the Senior Pastor and other elders of ONE CHURCH
• Someone with at least 5 years of church ministry experience. A successful history of leading a youth or college ministry of over 100 students OR a major role in leading a church of 150+ people. Theologically trained (M.Div. or higher is a bonus).
• A team builder. Lone Rangers need not apply.
• Someone who's got some entrepreneurial grit and a passion for multiplication.
• A person who stands in general agreement with the Baptist Faith & Message (2000)
• This role is about 85% focused on the local campus and 15% invested in the health and mission of One Church as a whole.
