About the Role

We are looking for a relational, organized, and passionate leader to serve as our

Discipleship Director. This role is all about helping people feel known, connected, and equipped — from their very first visit to becoming fully engaged, growing disciples of Christ. You'll create and lead a seamless process that welcomes newcomers, connects people into community, and builds pathways for spiritual growth through small groups, classes, and serving opportunities.

This is a shepherding and systems role — part pastoral, part connector, part builder of healthy ministry environments.

Key Responsibilities

Assimilation Leadership

• Lead a welcoming and effective first impressions strategy that helps new

guests feel seen, valued, and connected.

• Develop and manage the processes, communication, and teams needed to

move people from visitor to fully engaged member.

• Recruit, train, and lead the Hospitality/Guest Services & Assimilation teams.

Discipleship Development

• Build a clear, churchwide pathway for spiritual growth (e.g., new believer

classes, next-step classes, small groups, leadership development).

• Oversee the recruitment, training, and support of small group leaders.

• Provide leadership for discipleship groups, Bible studies, and midweek

classes, ensuring alignment with the church’s mission and theology.

• Regularly assess and improve discipleship environments to help people

move from spiritual curiosity to maturity.

Team Leadership and Collaboration

• Work closely with pastoral staff and ministry leaders to integrate

assimilation and discipleship into every area of church life.

• Partner with communications staff to create clear, compelling next steps for

people at every stage of their journey.

• Champion a culture where every person feels seen, supported, and invited to

grow.

What We’re Looking For

• A deep and growing relationship with Jesus Christ and a heart for helping

others grow in their faith.

• Strong relational skills — someone who naturally connects with a wide range

of people and helps them feel at home.

• Organizational and systems-building strength — you can build and lead

teams and create clear, simple processes that serve people well.

• A passion for discipleship — you love seeing people move from casual

attendance to passionate, Christ-centered living.

• Collaborative spirit — you enjoy working across ministries and empowering

others to succeed.

Education & Experience

• 3–5 years of leadership experience.

• A strong calling and connection to Crossroads Church, our culture and vision.

• Strong communication, teaching, and leadership skills.
