The Council of Elders has voted on and approved a plurality of leadership in what was formerly known as the Office of Senior Pastor with a Lead Pastor of Teaching, a Lead Pastor of Ministry and an Executive Director of Operations to create a new Executive Team.
A DEEPER DIVE
The goals of an Executive Team:
- Refine and enhance senior leadership focus on each aspect of mission
- Provide collaboration with regards to methods and strategies
- Recognize the significant scope, breadth and capacity to operate an organization of this size and scale
- Increase synergy and innovation to respond to evangelistic and discipleship challenges in a rapidly changing cultural environment
- Provide internal accountability through peer relationships
- Increase the diversity of decision-making perspective on the highest order issues
Our decision to move to a plurality of leaders at the senior leadership level is based on biblical principles not direct models. There are several ways to establish models of senior leadership in the local church. We believe that this model will serve Forest Hill best during this season. It is modeled in the New Testament and supported by biblical wisdom and demonstrates practical advantages.
