The 5 Roles We Started With At Elevation

The early campuses were started with hard work and hope. But the last 15 were started with these 5 roles.

First up, every church is different. Different mission, vision, leadership, resources, work ethic, branding, brand awareness, patience, bible knowledge, interest, buy-in, and just about 101 other variables. And even the Elevation of 2023 is different - and smaller - than the Elevation of 2020.

So DO NOT blindly copy these as so many like to do with ARC handbooks, Highlands College grads, LifeChurch formulas, or thinking they’ll get Furtick favor by buying new EW^ merch.

Mine for wisdom, ask questions, or just be intrigued.

Just as a regular report on what I did at Elevation, here’s the list and a little bit of the logic.

1. Campus Pastor - had to know who first. Because they’re the leader of that campus in every way including their staff. We’re not cramming random people together based on our budget or their preferences then gonna be shocked when there’s no chemistry. We let the CP have a large say in their team and many other variables.
