Pastor

The pastor’s primary task is the effective communication of the bible so as to equip the church for ministry, and sustain sound doctrine. Through preaching the pastor will challenge the congregation to grow in an intimate relationship with God, and thereby carry out the vision, purpose and ministry goals of HDBC

Under the direction of the church council and in partnership with the board of elders, the pastor will set the long-term ministry vision and goals for the church. The pastor is to champion the various projects or missions that are initiated in order to further the kingdom of God and to serve the community.

The pastor will be a spiritual shepherd to the congregation of HDBC through the faithful witness of his/her life. As a shepherd appointed by God, the pastor will be knowledgeable of scripture and strive to protect the church from error by exercising spiritual oversight and ensuring the continued discipleship of the body of Christ.
