Christian Church church in Sylvania, Ohio is hiring a Children's Pastor

Job Description

BOULEVARD CHURCH CULTURE

Followers of Jesus should be the best people to work with and work for (regardless of where you work).

One of the reasons why Boulevard is a great place to work is because of our mission: to bring glory to God the Father, while lifting high the name of Jesus, and leading people to be committed followers, transformed by the authority of God's Word.

As a team, we are constantly developing ourselves to be the healthiest and hardest working people-developers possible. It requires:

a teachable attitude a humble approach a confidence to lead boldly a willingness to admit when we're missing the mark

We also pay careful attention to the people and trends around us because we believe there is nothing more important than helping lost people reconnect with the God who loves them deeply.

WHO SHOULD APPLY

Many of our positions do not require experience working in vocational ministry. In fact, we hire skilled and talented people from a variety of professional fields. What's most important is how someone fits the Boulevard Christian Church culture we are creating. We are here to nurture, grow, and develop your skills and gifts as you serve. We are seeking creative, energetic, godly, servants with a high capacity for ministry to a local church.

High-capacity individuals can lead a ministry area as it currently exists while also championing a vision for where it needs to go and lead people to accomplish that vision—and do it all with excellence. Anyone we hire should be competent in leading volunteers to accomplish the tasks of ministry rather than being the sole person doing the tasks. A high-capacity person is always willing to learn more and become a better leader. They don't ever think that they have arrived or have all the answers. They also welcome feedback, are willing to take risks, and are driven by the mission of the church rather than their own agenda. They are concept thinkers, able to manage multiple projects at a time, and balance the use of processes & numbers along with leading people in their relationship with Jesus—the most important part of what we do. Anyone of any age can be a high-capacity leader.
