Job Purpose and Goals:

The Associate Director of Outreach: Local and Global Multiplication (ADM) will work with the Outreach Team implementing our outreach strategy to effectively disciple Lincoln Berean people toward personal, measurable gospel multiplication. The multiplication focus is two-fold – helping people bloom where they are currently planted, and helping others discern God’s call to grow and go wherever He directs. The ADM will further our outreach goals by creating an effective strategy for coaching Berean people living out gospel engagement, building a volunteer team, executing the strategy, and seeking its continual improvement. The ADM will help ensure that the disciples in our body are progressively growing their ability to help others know Jesus and become His disciples.

We are looking for someone who is deeply committed to helping change the outreach DNA of a large church by helping equip thousands of believers in gospel engagement by fostering personal spiritual growth and coaching toward discernment of God’s calling for each disciple’s ongoing personal, specific, and measurable gospel engagement with unbelievers to help others know Jesus and become His disciples.
