Spring Creek Church in Pewaukee, WI is a special place. After 37 years of faithful leadership, Pastor Chip Bernhard has felt led to retire at the end of 2024. His departure creates an opportunity for God’s next-called pastor to step into a healthy, thriving congregation and prayerfully guide it into the future God intends.
This role represents a valuable and rare opportunity to step into something excellent and help it evolve and grow to the next level. Gracious and unapologetic in teaching truth to the generations, Spring Creek has a solid reputation as a church that fulfills its mission to honor God by producing fully devoted followers of Jesus. People matter here, and those who call this their church home communicate in words and actions they value people because everybody matters to God. The incoming pastor will continue the rich tradition of deep Bible-centered preaching, skillfully drawing out biblical truth and weaving it into messages that are thought-provoking, convicting, and motivating. He will work closely with an exceptional team of pastors and staff, developing trust as he honors the past, understands the present, and patiently listens and learns from those with experience in the church before proposing next steps.
Spring Creek will welcome a Lead Pastor who loves the Church and possesses the heart of a shepherd as he guides the staff and congregation into a deeper, more intimate walk with Jesus. Leading a growing, multi-faceted, multi-generational congregation requires both relational and organizational leadership skills. Collaborative and team-oriented, the ideal pastor will understand how to navigate the challenges and complexities of church leadership dynamics from prior experience. He will be an effective communicator in the pulpit and throughout the church. People matter at Spring Creek, and the Lead Pastor will set the example for this value in attitude and action with both staff and the congregation.
