Tier 1: Playbook
Starting a pastoral search is exciting and having the right foundation matters. This playbook provides a step-by-step process designed to move from preparation to extending the pastoral call. You’ll receive a set of practical, church-specific tools, including:
- A full compensation and benefits planning guide
- A job description template
- Interview questions
- An offer‑letter sample
- A one‑hour orientation on leading a healthy, committee‑guided search
This toolkit helps your team start with clarity and confidence.
Tier 2: Support
Search Support is designed for teams who want steady movement and a trusted perspective as conversations and interviews unfold.
This tier includes:
- Customized Pastoral Search Playbook
- Six hours of flexible consulting over three months
- Certainty that your search will move toward a successful hire, with guided support to address barriers and help your committee make strong decisions
This support equips you to navigate each stage wisely, avoid common pitfalls, and keep the search moving forward.
Tier 3: Full Search
Searching for a pastor can feel overwhelming, especially when resumes are scarce. This option offers everything in Tier 2, while adding structure and momentum to your search. Rather than waiting for applicants to find you, Kristi draws on her HR expertise and Matt brings his pastoral experience to take an intentional, relationship-driven approach to identifying potential leaders across the country. Throughout the process, your search committee remains actively engaged, guiding interviews and making all the decisions, but with confidence.
This is more than posting the role. We pursue the right Pastor for you.
If a conversation would be helpful,
let's talk.
Calling your next pastor is one of the most important decisions your church will make. We come alongside you with a thoughtful, adaptable search process so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
