The senior pastor serves as Christs gift-person to His church in order to equip the saints for the work of the ministry so that we all grow in Christlike maturity (Ephesians 4:11-13). The man serving in this office is called to provide mature leadership as an elder, effective supervision and direction as an overseer, and faithful and humble care as an under-shepherd of the chief Shepherd (Acts 20:17, 28-31; 1 Peter 5:1-4). As the primary equipper of Gods people, he is to work hard at preaching and teaching while the church provides for his needs (1 Timothy 5:17-18). He is also to guard the flock under his watch while serving as an example of a true follower of the Lord Jesus (Acts 20:17, 28-31; 1 Peter 5:1-4).

In keeping with these biblical duties, the following are responsibilities of the senior pastor of Olive Branch Baptist Church:

  • Boldly proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ and equipping the church to spread His good news in the community.
  • Working with worship leaders to plan, coordinate and lead all worship services.
  • Leading and preaching at most worship services while arranging for the other pastor(s) and outside speakers to minister as appropriate.
  • Planning for and normally officiating the ordinances of believers baptism and the Lords Supper.
  • Working with the deacon chairman to provide appropriate training of deacons.
  • Meeting regularly with the deacons to pray and coordinate appropriate visitation of and care for the church family, especially those who are homebound, sick, widowed, struggling and hurting.
  • Advising the church concerning the creation of staff positions, the selection of staff members, and the determination of their duties.
  • Working with the deacon chairman to assist the Enlistment Committee with identifying and recruiting qualified individuals to fill church leadership positions.
  • Moderating church business meetings or delegating this responsibility to another mature leader.
  • Conducting funeral services and wedding ceremonies.
Qualifications

We are seeking a man of God who:

  • Meets the biblical qualifications for service in the office of pastor as set forth in 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and Titus 1:6-9.
  • Has been called by the Lord and ordained to serve His church in pastoral ministry.
  • Is devoted to his Savior, his Saviors church, and his family.
  • Demonstrates a recognized degree of Christian maturity coupled with a heart to serve as Jesus served.
