The Lead Pastor role at Oak Pointe Church (www.oakpointe.org) in Novi, Michigan is an exceptional opportunity for a dynamic, experienced Bible-centered teacher and pastor to receive the baton of leadership in a healthy and vibrant congregation. After 24 years of faithful ministry, Founding and Lead Pastor Bob Shirock is retiring. As the church looks toward the future, they are eager to welcome a Lead Pastor who shares their desire to know Jesus and make Him known as they write the next chapter of the Oak Pointe story.
So much is healthy and transformative in the Oak Pointe community. The church will respond well to a pastor who leads through clear, expository teaching, prayer, and a compassionate desire to reach those who have not yet heard the gospel. Oak Pointe is built on a solid foundation of teaching, dynamic worship, excellent program ministries, and outreach. As the new pastor arrives and the rhythms of church and life normalize again (post-pandemic), there is an opportunity to refresh expectations and invite fresh ideation around how the church might optimize its resources and build fresh momentum to reach an increasingly diverse community.
As a church that welcomes both seasoned believers and spiritually curious visitors, this relational shepherd will possess a heart for the lost, compassionately leaning into opportunities to help people come to know the redemptive power of God personally. Articulate and relevant, the ideal candidate will seamlessly connect biblical truth to the realities of daily life and current culture. A talented experienced biblical communicator, this pastor will teach with clarity and confidence, preferring messages that are expository or topical, but always grounded in Scripture.
