I love this opportunity because the Discipleship Pastor role sits at the very heart of LifePoint’s mission—to help people find life in Jesus and live sent. Few positions have the kind of church-wide influence, missional clarity, and transformational impact that this one does. This is a chance to design and steward a comprehensive discipleship pathway that shapes how adults grow spiritually, how leaders are formed, and how the church lives out the Gospel every day. The work is meaningful, strategic, and directly tied to LifePoint’s vision of making fully devoted disciples.

What excites me most is how this role brings together both people and systems. The Discipleship Pastor not only aligns values, language, and rhythms across all adult ministries, but also invests deeply in the staff and volunteers who lead them. This team is highly relational, skilled, and committed to excellence—they love the mission, they enjoy working together, and they create environments where real spiritual growth happens. Leading, coaching, and caring for them is not just a responsibility—it’s a privilege.

This position also plays a crucial role in helping people feel known, welcomed, and connected. From first-time guests to fully engaged members, the Discipleship Pastor guides the entire assimilation process, ensuring that every person has a clear and relational next step toward belonging. For a leader who thrives in developing systems, empowering teams, and removing barriers to connection, this is an incredibly compelling assignment.

Ultimately, I love this opportunity because it offers the right leader a chance to shape a thriving discipleship culture across campuses, strengthen the spiritual formation of thousands, and build pathways where everyday people learn to follow Jesus faithfully. It’s meaningful work with eternal impact—exactly the kind of role where a gifted, mission-driven pastor can flourish and help LifePoint continue making disciples who live sent.
