Create Your Profile

Minister profiles are multi-media resumes that can be used by congregations when they are searching for a new minister or guest speaker. Your profile can include pictures, searchable text, uploaded resumes, sample lesson plans, and audio or video presentations.

 

Who Should Create a Profile?

Minister Standing
Literally, every minister in the Churches of Christ needs a profile on Minister Match -- even if you are not looking for a new job! Your profile is a great way to:

  • Document your career development,
  • Search for new job opportunities, or
  • Find gospel meetings, lectureships, or other speaking engagements.

 

What If My Church Sees My Profile?

Don’t worry! You have full control over the details and visibility of your profile. You get to pick if you are publicly or privately seeking opportunities, if you want to appear in our Minister database, or if you are happy where you are, but would be willing to serve as a guest speaker.

 

What Does It Cost?

Minister Profiles are free of charge to all Registered users. Premium Members are able to post Featured Resumes that come to the top of employer searches as well as setup alerts for when new jobs are posted.

The ABC's of the On-Boarding Phase

ABC Blocks

Your congregation has just hired a minister, and it seems like they are the perfect fit. Congratulations! There is one more step to the process, though, and it is just as important as the process of finding the right minister. You might have heard people refer to how the “first hundred days” of someone’s job usually sets the tone for their entire career with that organization. The same is true with ministers. Just as your congregation is going through a major transition, so is your new minister. The first few months of a job are a stressful time, and it is the job of the elders and search committee to help your new minister through their transition.

We refer to this as the “On-Boarding Stage.” Since the “first hundred days” is so important to the rest of a minister’s career with your congregation, we believe this stage is one of the keys to reducing minister turnover in the church. In this post, we want to talk about a few of the things that a new minister needs from their congregation during this transition period. We will refer to them as the ABC’s of the On-Boarding Phase.
