Standard pastoral ministry for a small community: preaching, Bible teaching, discipleship development, hospital visitation, developing church leaders, leading/encouraging community outreach, a willingness to work with committees. We are located 40 miles south of Nashville in a growing area. We average 70-80 in Sunday morning worship, but are poised for growth. We have a traditional worship format (piano, organ, choir). We are "Traditional Baptist" in our theology, meaning we believe Scripture teaches both the sovereignty of God and the free will of all persons as expressed in the Baptist Faith & Message 2000. Please send a link for viewing your sermons if you have them online.
REQUIREMENTS:
Ideally, someone with 2-5 years of full-time or bivocational ministry. Ministry experience while in seminary is acceptable. College and seminary degrees preferred.
Why do we exist? Smyrna Baptist Church is a church that exists to glorify God by totally committing ourselves to Jesus Christ and to the dramatic growth of His Kingdom!
