WORSHIP PASTOR

Colorado Springs, CO 80907

Overview

Full-Time | Trace Church | 3,500+ Weekly Attendance

Vision & Calling

At Trace Church, we believe worship is more than music — it is spiritual formation, discipleship, and leadership development expressed through song and surrendered lives.

The Worship Pastor is more than a service leader; this pastor is a shepherd of people and a cultivator of culture. This leader will build a thriving worship ministry by developing vocalists and worship leaders in their craft, culture, character, and relationship with Christ.

We believe we are not paid for performance, but for preparation. The Worship Pastor models spiritual health, personal discipline, and relational maturity so that the ministry never outpaces the leader.

The Worship Pastor leads and oversees the entire worship ministry of Trace Church across all services and environments. This role focuses heavily on:

Recruiting and developing worship leaders and vocalists.
Shaping and strengthening the worship culture.
Shepherding the spiritual lives of team members.
Ensuring worship gatherings are spiritually powerful and musically excellent.

- Develop leaders who are spiritually mature before they are platform-ready.
- Provide consistent pastoral care and mentorship.
Relationship with Christ
- Ensure leaders prioritize personal devotion over performance.
- Cultivate a culture grounded in prayer and dependence on the Holy Spirit.
- Develop worship leaders who lead from overflow, not obligation.
