PLEASE NOTE: In early September we realized the email address we provided in our preacher search advertisements was not working properly. If you have previously responded to one of our ads and not received a reply, please email the address provided in this new advertisement.
The Licking Church of Christ, Licking, MO is seeking a preacher who focuses on the Biblical doctrines and the practices of the early church. Health problems are forcing our much-loved current preacher to step down.
We are looking for a preacher who GENTLY AND TACTFULLY TEACHES THE FULL TRUTH.
Many of our members are age 50 and older. However, we have a solid group of younger folks who recognize the authority of the Scriptures. Our church building is located on the main street of our small town, and our auditorium will seat about 200. We have several classrooms and a fellowship hall with kitchen. We offer a day school each year. Our services are like those found in most Churches of Christ in the 1950s.
The cost of living is low in our rural area which helps offset our beginning salary of $36,000. (PLEASE NOTE: We would love to have a full time preacher; however, we may have to compromise due to our salary.) Our area offers lots of recreation in God’s creation—small rivers, creeks, trout streams, national forests. About 35 miles to the north is a larger town with a major university and additional recreational activities.
Training, preaching experience, ability, and personality will all be strongly considered.
If you believe we are a good fit, please respond to our posting. Upon receipt of your response, we will send you a standard set of questions.
