Leadership

Leadership is yet another area of the ministry at Coast Community Church that we believe has its responsibilities before its privileges. There are two types of ministry leadership at CCC. The first of which is called the Five-Fold Ministry. "What is five-fold ministry," you ask? Five-Fold ministry is bascially CCC's term for the five different ministry roles outlined in the Bible in Ephesians 4:11-13. These are the apostles, prophets (we have none of these yet), pastors, teachers,and evagelists of the church. Along with the elders, these are the "executive ministers", if you will. The Five-Fold ministers are the main overseers of the ministry at CCC.

Secondly, we have our general ministry leaders. We strongly believe that it is extremely important to have leaders in place in every ministry, so that there is a person or persons who can be responsible for making sure that each particular ministry within the walls of CCC is being implemented in a God-honoring and biblical way. Leaders in the church are people who have a strong heart after God and seek for his will to be done to the best of their ability within a particular ministry. We also believe that in order to be a leader, you must be able to be a follower. It is because of this belief that we do not seek to put people in leadership as soon as they join the church or before they join the church. We believe it is very beneficial to first allow a new member to be assimilated into the body, through getting connected in a community and maybe even being on a ministry team, such as our Hospitality Ministry or Cross Center Creative Ministries--just two examples of where a member can serve in the ministry of CCC without being the main leader of the ministry itself.
