In ministry, our calling is attached to us, not a place. I have the opportunity to walk out God's calling within me at a place I truly cherish. I've grown up here from a single guy to married with 3 kids (2 teenagers 😳) and it's been an amazing ride. God has used this place to stretch me, invest in me, trust me, care for me, develop me, and challenge me as a calling became a career. The senior leadership team has been in place for nearly 3 decades and is humble, kind, and wise. The mission of this church is exciting to get up each day and pursue.
Cons
There aren't any cons that I have to list about working here. If there were, it'd be on me, with my tenure and leadership role, to work with those above me to resolve them. Posting them here would be irresponsible and petty.

We’re glad to hear you enjoy working at Life.Church! Thank you for sharing your experience with us!
I love serving at my church through the role of pastor. Caring for people who take time out of their busy day to serve God through LC is a privilege. Life.Church has great benefits (401K Match & insurance) too.
Cons
Culture varies wildly from campus to campus so you could have very different experiences depending where you land. The job is much more task driven than you would expect or were told. You are often asked to do things that are outside of your job description. If you think of it more as you are here to fully serve the church in any capacity they ask and you'll do great.
