Shepherd Staff is honored to be working with Pathway Church in Burleson, TX, as they search for their next Director of Worship. Pathway Church is a vibrant, community-focused congregation that describes itself as a recovery church that offers a space where people can come as they are and grow together in faith as they pursue Jesus together. The church emphasizes raising servants rather than volunteers, with most of its leadership—both staff and lay leaders—emerging from within the congregation and serving across multiple areas.

The Director of Worship is a full-time role leading Christ-centered worship during weekend services and student ministry while fostering future worship leaders. Working closely with the Pastor of Worship, Director of Student Ministry, and Director of Production, this individual ensures worship experiences align with the church's vision and values. Key responsibilities include leading worship services, selecting music, overseeing production, and facilitating moments of prayer and spiritual engagement. The Director collaborates with ministry leaders, mentors musicians, and creates a leadership pipeline for developing worship leaders.

The ideal candidate will be:

• A highly relational, authentic, and humble leader
• A strong vocalist and musician
• A disciple-maker passionate about developing worship leaders and mentoring youth in worship.
• A collaborative leader who is skilled in delegating tasks and empowering others.

POSITION OVERVIEW

There is a high desire from the leadership at Pathway Church that the next Director of Worship be a humble, trainable leader who brings passion and energy to the stage, while also being a collaborative team player with a strong knowledge of worship technology. This position offers an attractive opportunity to serve on a healthy staff team in a state-of-the-art facility. The ideal candidate would be a strong vocalist and musician capable of leading paid musicians, with a heart for developing worship leaders within the church, specifically within the growing youth ministry.
