The HCS School Board is looking to hire a full-time Director of Discipleship immediately.

Job Purpose: Serve as the Discipleship Director of Howardsville Christian School. As Howardsville Christian School seeks to fulfill its mission of providing a Christian Education of excellence wherein every subject and facet of life is taught with Biblical truth as its foundation, the HCS Discipleship Director will oversee the spiritual component of the “facet of life” portion of this mission. They will lead HCS in a manner similar to an under shepherd caring for a flock, therefore this role closely aligns with that of a pastor and the qualifications taught in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1 would apply, as well as a life ruled by 1 Cor. 16:14. HCS desires to teach a love for learning and of the Lord, and the Discipleship Director’s responsibilities support that goal. Because HCS is a ministry of Howardsville Gospel Chapel, the beliefs and held doctrine of the Discipleship Director should align with HGC’s.

Job Description:

· Teach the Bible classes as assigned.

· Plan, organize, implement, and evaluate Spiritual Emphasis Week each year for the High School.

· Plan, organize, implement, and evaluate Spiritual Emphasis projects within the Elementary School each year.
