FAQs
When does Landon start?
Landon will be in the office to begin meeting staff on September 6, 2022. Since our teaching calendar is pretty much planned out for the next few months, he isn't scheduled to teach at MISSION until October 2.
Will we still hear from Steve, Eugene, etc?
Yes! Both Steve and Eugene, as well as several of our other guest teachers, are scheduled for the rest of the year and into 2023. We will be releasing a teaching calendar soon. After that, Landon will teach approximately 30 Sundays a year.
Who's in charge now?
Our Lead Executive Pastor, Kevin Rhineheimer is in charge of the staff and ministry operations of the church. Landon MacDonald is in charge of the content creation and teaching at MISSION. Both of them serve on and are accountable to the Board of Servant Leaders.
So we changed the 'model'. Can you explain it to me like I'm 5?
Sure! Our staff and church used to be led by one 'big boss' (the Lead Pastor). With this change, our staff and church will be led by 'two bosses' who have different abilities and callings so they will have different jobs. The position we are hiring for is the Lead Teaching Pastor who's primarily responsibility will be teaching and leading the content development at MISSION.
Does this change the vision of the church?
The vision and mission of our church remain the same: to be a community of broken people, being transformed by Jesus, who generously love our neighbors and the next generation.
