Grace Church, Mesa, AZ, offers a wonderful opportunity for an experienced pastor to shepherd a mature congregation. They desire to call a pastor who will lead, teach, inspire, and motivate them to invest this rich season of life to make a genuine difference in the world.
This is a fantastic role for the right leader. This opportunity offers a dynamic and rewarding challenge; one that requires vision, compassion, and adaptability to lead this mature congregation into a new season of growth and missional effectiveness. Grace desires a relational, shepherding pastor who is a strong biblical communicator who enjoys teaching, preaching, drawing out the deeper truths in God’s Word, and encouraging people to apply what they know in daily life. He will connect with people by visiting them, engaging with small groups, coaching ministry leaders, and encouraging people throughout the week.
The church desires a pastor to develop, equip, and train people. He will help people discover their gifts and encourage them to contribute as they can. Pastoring an aging congregation also offers many opportunities to meet people in moments of crisis or challenge; to bring comfort, hope, and spiritual peace to those in need.
The Senior Pastor at Grace will lead with the heart of a shepherd, nurturing a culture of both care and purposeful engagement. He will be faithful and Spirit-led as he embraces a role that includes preaching & teaching, pastoral care, organization, and strategic vision casting. Grounded in conservative Biblical theology, he will approach the pulpit with reverence and authenticity, delivering sermons with clarity, passion, and a touch of humor. He will enjoy strengthening and activating the church on mission. He will genuinely enjoy people, investing time and energy in building meaningful relationships as well as effective systems that help organize, align, equip, and mobilize people to contribute where they are able.
