Lifepoint Church

Worship Pastor

Lewis Center,

Ohio

Why I Love This Opportunity

Mike Haight

Associate

Lifepoint is a team-oriented, vision-driven, and healthy multisite church with five campuses across the north side of Columbus, OH. The new Worship Pastor will oversee worship ministry on the largest of Lifepoint’s five campuses and help set the pace for the ministries across all campuses. This person will join a tight-knit team of campus worship pastors who collaborate extremely well and enjoy doing things with a high degree of excellence. The Worship Pastor will inherit a well-established ministry and have ample latitude to dream while being well-resourced and supported. All of this while living in a beautiful city is expected to see unprecedented growth over the next decade.

About This Organization

Lifepoint Church’s vision is to become a people who draw life from God and point others to him as they multiply kingdom impact in mid-Ohio, the mid-west, and the world. The church strives to equip, empower, and release its members into ministry where they live, work, and play. They are known for missional living, friendliness, and approachable Biblical-based teaching with practical application.

Lifepoint launched in 2004 when three founding pastors joined in planting a church on the north side of Columbus, OH. Today, nearly 4,500 people attend weekly worship services on average across the church’s five campuses, with over 6,000 people calling Lifepoint their church family. Additionally, there are nearly 3000 people connected in weekly small group communities called Lifegroups.

The worship ministry is extremely healthy and desires to draw life from God and point others to Him. Those serving on the worship team are characterized by humility, loyalty, faithfulness, a strong desire to grow, and an openness to coaching. Their goal is to lead the church into a place (physically, emotionally, and spiritually) where people can worship God. Excellence is valued, and they want to offer their best, being void of anything that takes attention away from God and puts it on anything or anyone else. The musical worship at Lifepoint is decidedly modern but without undue pressure to be the trendiest church in town.

What a Strong Candidate Would Look Like:

  • The successful candidate will be a strong vocalist and gifted musician who cares about musical excellence.
  • This person should see themselves as a pastor, not just an artist.
  • The new hire should be highly relational, lead passionately, and have the heart to shepherd and develop others.
  • This person should value teamwork and collaboration and lead more from influence than directive.
