What a Strong Candidate Would Look Like:

A strong candidate for this role will bring at least 10 years of Family Ministry experience and be excited to live and lead in the environment of these seven staff commitments:

• Trust- A winning team is comprised of people who are trusting and trustworthy. When we see a pattern of behavior that causes concern, we commit to running towards difficult conversations and holding one another accountable by being honest and transparent with one another. I’ve got their back, and I know they have mine.
• Vision- A winning team is comprised of people who are passionate about the vision. We will always provide clarity around what we do, why we do it, and how we do it. We do not just talk about our church; we talk about it in a way that makes the vision contagious.
• Growth- A winning team is comprised of people who never stop growing. We believe our best days are always in front of us because we will never stop growing spiritually, professionally, and relationally.
• Teamwork- A winning team is comprised of people who invite teammates into their process. We believe we are always better together. We can achieve more together than we ever could alone.
• Results- A winning team is comprised of people who hold one another accountable for the decisions made. We call our shots and relentlessly pursue those shots. We call a win a win and a miss a miss. We refuse to paint a bullseye around a stray bullet.
• Love- A winning team is comprised of people who laugh loud, hard, and often. We do not just have fun as a team, we have fun with our families too. We are committed to knowing one another well so we can love one another better.
• Ownership- A winning team is comprised of people who think and act like owners, rather than renters. We will not just identify problems. We will find the best solutions and then execute those solutions to make Mosaic better.
