Pastors

The Pastors of Citizens Church are the spiritual authority over the church as laid out in 1 Timothy 3:1-7, Titus 1:5-9, 1 Peter 5:1-4, and Acts 20:17-35.

Their role is to guard and give shape to three major areas of the church:

Direction: Putting words to how the Holy Spirit is leading in our community.

Doctrine: Teaching the Scriptures and guard against false teaching within the church.

Discipleship: Overseeing all matters of church care, discipleship, and discipline.
