Location:  Nashville, Tennessee • United States
Salary Range:  To Be Determined (USD)
Reports to:  Senior Pastor

Job Overview

Position Description: Edgefield Church (Nashville, TN) is seeking a full-time Assistant or Associate Pastor (pending past experience) to oversee and coordinate church operations in service to its mission as a Word-centered, elder-led, congregationally governed body. This role exists to faithfully steward the church’s time, resources, and structures so that the ministry of the Word flourishes, the congregation is equipped for meaningful membership and mission, and the elders are freed to devote themselves to prayer, teaching, and pastoral oversight (Acts 6:1–7). The Assistant/Associate Pastor will work closely with the elders to ensure that the church’s ministries, systems, and outreach efforts support the spiritual work of discipling the body and advancing the gospel locally and globally. This includes helping mobilize the congregation toward personal evangelism, community outreach, and participation in the church’s missions efforts, while fostering a culture of hospitality, witness, and gospel engagement.

Our Church: Edgefield Church is a city-center congregation founded in 1867 and reconstituted in 2021. Our primary goal is to glorify God through the quality of our life together. The role of our elders, our staff, and our programming is to build a culture of meaningful membership—to equip our members for their responsibility to care for one another, to disciple one another, and to work together in evangelism and service. We are affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) for international missions, and a member church of both the Pillar Network and the ACME Fellowship.
