Worship Pastor

Pine Forest Baptist Church is seeking a passionate, Christ-centered Worship Pastor to join our growing church family.

This is more than a music position. We are seeking a shepherd who loves Jesus, loves people, and is called to lead the church in authentic, Christ-exalting worship that is firmly rooted in the truth of God's Word. Our desire is to find someone who will become an integral part of our church family—investing in people, discipling believers, mentoring worship team members, and helping us fulfill the mission God has entrusted to Pine Forest Baptist Church.

At Pine Forest Baptist Church, we exist to glorify God by sharing Christ and making mature disciples who live all of life according to the Scriptures for the glory of Christ our King. We are a Bible-centered, family-integrated church experiencing steady growth and excited about what God is doing in our community.

Located on 23 beautiful acres, our campus provides room for continued ministry expansion and community outreach. As we look toward the future, we are prayerfully exploring opportunities to partner with or establish a Christian school, believing that Christ-centered education is another avenue to reach families, disciple the next generation, and make a lasting impact on our community.

We are looking for someone who shares this vision—someone who desires to build more than a worship ministry, but to help cultivate a culture of discipleship, biblical worship, and faithful service. The ideal candidate will have a heart for the local church, a commitment to sound doctrine, and a passion for leading God's people to worship Him in spirit and in truth.

If God is calling you to serve in a church that is committed to the authority of Scripture, the discipleship of families, and the advancement of Christ's Kingdom, we would love to hear from you.
