Life.Church is an amazing place to work. - LGLM Pastor Life.Church Employee Review

I've worked in full-time vocational ministry for 17 years, and 5 of those have been at Life.Church. I've seen what an unhealthy church/ministry culture looks like, and I'm grateful to say that Life.Church isn't that. I've personally had a few experiences being in a small group setting with the Leadership team and with Pastor Craig, and each time they are inquisitive about me, my family, and how they can better the organization. They have always been open to feedback and have never given the impression that they "have it all figured out." I love working at Life.Church because: We are mission-driven and focused on making a lasting impact The culture is fun, positive, and team-oriented Expectations are clear, with strong systems for success I receive frequent, helpful feedback that helps me grow I feel my voice is heard, and my opinion and perspective are seen. Leadership is transparent, supportive, and holds high accountability There is a genuine care for my whole family, not just my role The benefits are incredible, and pay is competitive Performance is recognized, with raises and growth opportunities

While Life.Church has a strong overall culture, being a large organization means that campus-to-campus experiences can differ. The leadership and health of each Campus Pastor significantly influence team culture, which can sometimes create inconsistencies in how that culture is lived out day to day. I've worked at 3 Campuses, in two different states, under 3 different Campus Pastors. I did have a less-than-ideal experience at 1 campus with 1 campus pastor, who had a lower EQi and maturity level. Through that experience, I saw how leadership handled both my feedback and their leadership. I was supported, and they were held accountable.

I love serving at my church through the role of pastor. Caring for people who take time out of their busy day to serve God through LC is a privilege. Life.Church has great benefits (401K Match & insurance) too.

Culture varies wildly from campus to campus so you could have very different experiences depending where you land. The job is much more task driven than you would expect or were told. You are often asked to do things that are outside of your job description. If you think of it more as you are here to fully serve the church in any capacity they ask and you'll do great.
