Our Mission Field- What you should know about Utah...
Utah is a uniquely challenging mission field, being both the most religious yet least Christian state in the U.S., with a strong LDS influence even on non-Mormons. Christians here must adopt a pioneering spirit, viewing ministry much like an international mission field, making Utah both difficult and exciting for church growth.
Who we are:
The Mission Church was planted in South Jordan, UT, in 2013. We are a church deeply committed to the Bible, known for verse-by-verse expository preaching and a steadfast dedication to all of God’s Word. Valuing sound doctrine, we aim to emphasize what God prioritizes while allowing for peaceable disagreements on secondary issues. Viewing our mission as spiritual warfare, we believe the church should function more like a battleship than a cruise ship, focused on building Christ’s Kingdom rather than seeking comfort. We joyfully collaborate with other churches, embracing sacrifice and resilience in the face of challenges. Driven by a commitment to excellence, we strive to eliminate distractions in worship and ministry by keeping our church organized, our services engaging, and our spaces clean and inviting.
Qualifications Summary:
The Youth & Worship Pastor must be a committed Christian who meets elder qualifications, has a supportive family, and possesses a heart for engaging with the local Mormon culture. This role requires a creative, self-motivated leader with strong skills in planning, team-building, and communication, able to inspire and mentor youth while leading worship that connects the congregation deeply to God. Close collaboration with the Senior Pastor is essential to maintain a unified vision, creating a seamless partnership that enriches both their ministry efforts and personal lives.
