Job Description:

Crosspoint Church is creating a new staff position.

Nestled in the mountains of East Tennessee, in the oldest town in Tennessee – is a church that was created to reach the unchurched. One of our founding principles is to be an Out-Of-The-Box Church. We are looking for a Next-Gen Pastor, that will help us reach out into our community in creative and innovative ways – in order to introduce the next generation of children and parents to Jesus.

It just so happens, that after our church relocated during the pandemic – it placed us in the middle of one of the fastest growing areas in our region. Demographic studies tell us we should expect a flood of young families with children over the next five to eight years. We need you to help us reach those families.

What we’re looking for:

Our Next-Gen Pastor will work to create and develop a ministry to families who have children between birth and 6th grade. Since this is a new staff position – we are looking for someone who is:

  • A Visionary – Someone not afraid to dream, envision the future, and pursue new avenues of reaching children and families.
  • A Communicator – Vision and dreams can only become a reality if we are able to communicate that vision and motivate others to join us in the pursuit of that dream. Being able to communicate your vision verbally and written is essential.
  • A Leader – A leader is not someone who does everything themselves. A leader is one who can help people rise up and do things they never dreamed they could do. A leader develops others by recruiting, training, developing, and delegating. Strong leaders can build teams around them.
  • Self-Motivated – Those who succeed in ministry are self-starters. They have a calling, they have a mission, they are excited to pursue it. They exhibit a strong work-ethic and a whatever-it-takes approach to ministry.
  • Teachable – One of the greatest mistakes we can make in ministry is to assume that the way we think is the only way to accomplish God’s purpose. We believe leaders must continue to grow, adapt, and remain flexible when it comes to methods of ministry. We can always learn something new from a variety of sources. Being teachable leads to longevity in ministry.
  • Passionate – No one can succeed without passion for their ministry. You should be passionate about reaching children and their parents. You should be passionate about teaching children and parents how to love God. You should be passionate about developing families not just children. You should be passionate about developing the next generation over the next decade.

Compensation

We believe in taking care of those who serve the church. Compensation will vary based on your experience - but will always be fair. Our goal is not to starve you in your service to God – but to provide your family with a comfortable salary.

About Crosspoint Church

Crosspoint Jonesborough is nestled in beautiful Northeast Tennessee. We minister to the Oldest Town in the state of Tennessee. Jonesborough is growing quite rapidly over the past few years with no real end in sight. Crosspoint was launched as a church plant in March of 2010. We started with a team of 12 adults. We have three phrases that capture the heart of Crosspoint. 1) We're an Out-Of-The-Box Church. Since our launch, our focus has been outward. We have moved into our community buidling relationships and serving with no strings attached. We have formed partnerships with first responders and local schools and are constantly looking for new ways to be involved in the community. 2) We want to help people take their next stept toward Jesus. Our church has a majority of people who were previously unchurched before coming to Crosspoint. We encourage people to take their next step in their relationship with Jesus whatever that step may be. 3) No Perfect People, Only a Perfect God. Crosspoint is a safe place for those who have no relationship with Jesus. We want seekers to feel safe to ask the hard questions in their journey toward Jesus. We don't attempt to pretend to be able to fix those who are broken - we simply journey with people through their brokenness - as we direct them toward Jesus. C

Crosspoint is an elder led church. Our team of Elders have worked together for 14 years - which has led to great unity within the church. This is a great growing church, with a vision for the future, and a great place to serve God and people
