Summary
Title:Children's Ministry Leader
ID:765
Department:Children's Ministry
Location:Shelby County Campus
Type:Full Time
Description

The construction is almost complete for our new Shelby County Campus and the plan is to open this spring!  Many already call the SC Campus home, with vibrant groups going full force, we are a campus, we simply need a dry, air conditioned spot large enough to meet!  

Which means we need a Children's Ministry Leader now so that we are ready to hit the ground running when we launch. Are you the experienced leader we’re looking for with a heart for the Shelby County community and willingness to help bridge the gap between the church and home?

This Is Us

We’re a growing, multi-site, Bible-based community in the greater Louisville area with a passion for connecting people to Jesus & one another. We value:

  • Connection over production (John 15:5).
  • Risk & adventure over safety & comfort (John 3:8).
  • Innovation over tradition (Luke 5:19).
  • Personal engagement over attendance (Luke 9:62).
  • Expressive worship over religious rituals (Luke 7:38).


Are You Ready to Make a Difference?
You’ll get street cred if: Proximity and presence in the Shelby County Community are of high value to you.
You should keep walking if: You aren’t ready to come alongside parents/guardians and equip them to disciple their children on a daily basis.
It’ll be a big yikes if: You get your feelings hurt easily by 4th and 5th graders.
We’ll high-five you if: You can manage ambiguity, problem solve, and act decisively. No time for hand holding in this role!
