Worship Pastor

Position Summary:

Trinity Abilene is seeking a passionate, Christ-centered Worship Pastor who will lead our church in worship while also serving as a pastoral leader. This role goes beyond musical leadership. This person will disciple, mentor, and shepherd both the worship team and the broader congregation. The Worship Pastor will integrate spiritual formation with excellence in worship, helping the church grow in faith and Christlikeness.

About Trinity:

Trinity is a thriving and fast-growing congregation in a city experiencing rapid transformation and opportunity. With the development of a new AI plant bringing growth, innovation, and new families into our community, our city is changing quickly, and we believe God has positioned our church here for such a time as this.

Recently, we have walked through a pastoral transition that has strengthened our foundation and clarified our vision. This season has unified our church family and prepared us for steady, sustainable growth. We are not simply looking to expand numerically; we are committed to growing spiritually, relationally, and missionally.

One of the defining characteristics of our church is our people. We genuinely pride ourselves on being a warm, welcoming, and friendly congregation. Guests consistently tell us they feel seen, known, and valued from the moment they walk through our doors. However, we don’t want to be a church full of attenders. We are passionate about equipping and empowering believers to become faithful servants and ministry builders. We believe every member is called, gifted, and sent. Our heart is to develop leaders, mobilize volunteers, and cultivate a church where everyone takes ownership of the mission.

We are excited about what God is doing and even more excited about what is ahead. This is a season of opportunity, momentum, and Kingdom impact, and we are looking for leaders who are ready to grow with us and help shape the future.
