Careers at Emmaus

Build something
that outlives you.

Emmaus Church is a young church in Rockvale, Tennessee with a simple conviction: ordinary people, filled with the Spirit, change a county. If that is the kind of work you want your life spent on, keep reading.

Why work here

We are a church plant, which means the job is real and the ceiling is high. You will not be a cog. You will build systems, shape culture, and carry weight from your first week.

Gospel first

Every role here exists to help people meet Jesus and follow him. Staff are disciples before they are employees, and we protect that order.

Low ego, high trust

We stack chairs together. Titles matter less than ownership, and nobody on this team is too important to do the unglamorous thing.

Family is not a competitor

Your marriage and your kids are not what you sacrifice for the mission. They are part of it. We build schedules that assume that.

Make it excellent

Excellence honors God and inspires people. We would rather do fewer things at a high level than everything at a mediocre one.
