We are so grateful to be partnered with the folks at Orange (reThink). Orange is incredible – it’s a ministry movement. A lot of people think it’s just kids ministry, but it’s ministry to all and leadership and structure. Check it out: I recently received an interesting email from a church my family and I visited several times a few years ago. At that time, we were looking for a new church home and visited this church along with several others. As far as I can remember, we have never heard anything from this church asking how we were doing or any encouraging words or anything outside of this email for that matter. The email I received was telling me about how news media had attacked this church and letting me know “the truth.” Well, I knew nothing about these events and am pretty tied in with local media. And, the people with whom I’ve spoken in the community heard nothing about it either. As I write this, a friend of mine just let me know he received the same email and had never heard from this church before either. So, my questions: I’ll be sharing my ideas soon – I look forward to hearing yours. The Minister Search team couldn’t be more excited about our relationship with reThink – Orange. We have worked with hundreds of churches in helping them with key pastoral searches. Many of those have been searches for Next Generation leaders like Children’s Pastors, Youth Pastors, Student Pastors, Family Pastors, etc. It’s important to partner with groups like Orange to make sure we are staying on the edge of ministry and churches today. This year the folks at Orange asked Minister Search founder, David Lyons, to speak at a breakout to share ministry hiring trends and best practices when it comes to hiring key church staff. David and our team will also be hosting the bloggers lounge in which 40-50 top bloggers from all over the country will be blogging about the reThink – Orange conference. They’ll also be hosting the Senior and Executive pastor’s networking event and lounge areas. For more details, click here. Finding the right pastor job openings can be challenging to say the least. On the web you may see Pastor Job Openings all over! But, which one is the RIGHT fit for you? Where is it YOU are being called? We’ve provided some resources in the blog postings below to help pastors find open positions that fit them. If you’re a pastor searching for a new ministry position, please CLICK HERE to see our open pastoral jobs and apply for those that interest you. Don’t see a position that interests you, click the New User button and create a file anyway – it will be confidential, and we’ll be able to keep an eye open for the type of position that interest you. As pastor jobs come open that fit your profile, our search consultants will make contact with you to discuss. Also, new pastor jobs open regularly, so keep an eye on our PASTOR JOB OPENINGS page for an up to date listing of new pastoral jobs. What about confidentiality? We will NOT post or share your information with anyone without your approval. What if I’m not a fit for the current pastor job openings, can you help me find another position? Minister Search’s focus is helping churches fill pastor job openings. The cool thing is, if you’re not a fit for one of our current open positions, check back with our PASTOR JOB OPENINGS page as we have new pastoral jobs open all the time. Even if we don’t have one now, things may change in the future, so please CLICK HERE and create a confidential file for future reference. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be addressing some key points to filling a position with the RIGHT leader. There are a number of things that need to happen BEFORE you begin reviewing resumes and interviewing candidates: The first step is a Needs Assessment. Several questions you should ask: Just because someone resigns or transitions out of a position doesn’t mean it needs to be immediately filled. It also doesn’t mean the role, responsibilities, reporting structure, etc. hasn’t changed. Take a few moments to consider these issues prior to starting your process. The next step is Profiling the Job – stay tuned for more details on that…
