      Be prepared to give up your whole life - inside and outside of work - to the org

      Pros

      Global reach (if you care about that).

      Cons

      You will slowly lose your identity as an individual, all in the name of the ministry. Be prepared to not only give your all to your job, but also your entire family spending all weekends and holidays serving at church. Eventually you'll realize that people are just coming to a feel-good experience without any opportunity to actually go deep in their faith. And you are just a cog in that system. Life.Church is really good at marketing, and their value statements are catchy. But the church has grown to a point that they don't really even live those values anymore. Sure, at first there's the honeymoon phase. But in the end, you realize that being on staff there is pretty much like being in a cult. You are controlled by a charismatic leader that forces you to give your whole life to the org, you are required to give away 10% of your below-market paycheck back to the leader (who is a multi-millionaire), and if you speak out against them you will be shunned and silenced.

      Thank you for sharing your experience. You're right: The work we're called to do is challenging! At Life.Church, we firmly believe it is also the most significant work that can be done here on Earth. We recognize the importance of stewarding our time, energy, and resources well, and we are always trying to get better at making sure that the time you spend outside the office is as fruitful and fulfilling as the time you get to invest at work. The reason numbers are important here at Life.Church is because we see every number as a person with a unique story that matters to God. We definitely don't have it all down yet, and if you would like to provide feedback on how we can improve, please email hr@life.church.
