South Isanti Baptist Church (Isanti, MN) Pastor
THE BIG PICTURE
South Isanti Baptist church (southisantibaptist.org) is seeking a full time Pastor.
Our Biblical position as to how we view the role of the pastor.
We believe the New Testament provides a clear framework for what are the essential, biblical responsibilities of a church pastor. Individuals have different abilities, gifts, and life experiences that they bring to ministry in the local church and no two people will serve in the same way. There is however the expectation that a pastor will see his ministry as fulfilling these three tasks.
Preaching the Word
2 Timothy 4:2, “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.”
Shepherd the Flock of God
1 Peter 5:2, “Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve.”
Equip God’s People for Service
Ephesians 4:12-13, “Equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.”
Clarification of Requirements and Responsibilities
This is a full-time position, and we require that the Pastor live within a distance suitable for supporting the responsibilities listed below, for an extended period (years), without causing hardship for either the Pastor or his immediate family. It is understood that there may be a transition from the Pastor’s current living arrangement to the “local” area that takes a reasonable time to complete.
Responsibilities
• Prepare and deliver biblically based sermons
• Help the church to continue to be Christ-centered
• Support and promulgate the doctrines of biblical inerrancy, sufficiency, and coherence
• Provide theologically sound guidance to all areas of the church
• Administer baptisms
