Job Title:
Pastoral Resident: Four Oaks Church
Job Description:
The Four Oaks Pastoral Residency is a 2-3 year program for qualified men who are seeking to grow and develop in their pastoral call through healthy ministry engagement, candid feedback and support, and leadership development. Believing the local church, as God designed it, is the hope of the world, Four Oaks seeks to provide aspiring church leaders a healthy church environment to learn, grow, and practice ministry. Our desire is for church leaders to begin in leadership roles from a position of experience and wholistic strength.
The Pastoral Residency is a paid staff position with full benefits including health care, retirement, and ministry spending allowance. Designed after a medical residence model, the Residency will provide a wide range of real ministry opportunities with intentional feedback and care. Residents at Four Oaks will serve as pastors alongside other residents in a cohort model as well as the staff teams of each congregation. We have three congregations with differing demographics and sizes, and you will receive feedback and mentoring from each lead pastor.
The scope of responsibilities and ministry involvement for a particular resident will be discussed and determined during the hiring process. As much as possible, ministry responsibilities will be shaped to the passion and giftings of the pastoral residents themselves.
Position Qualifications:
Four Oaks desires to select men with “integrity of heart and skillful hands” (Psalm 78:70-72) to participate in this program. Applicants should have a settled conviction of calling to senior level leadership in a local church, demonstrated ministry fruitfulness, and most of a seminary degree completed. Applicants will exhibit a commitment to following Christ, leadership ability, and a heart for serving the local church. If still in seminary, those selected for the Residency are eligible to receive tuition assistance in their final year and would commit to moving to the Tallahassee area upon completion of their degree.
