Position type: Full-time              

Reports to: Matthew 5:9 Fellowship Program Director

Location: Remote

Expected Start Date: October 1, 2023

ABOUT US:

The One America Movement recognizes that this country’s polarization crisis is not just a democratic crisis but a spiritual one. Faith is a powerful response to that crisis. Therefore, the One America Movement started an initiative called the Matthew 5:9 Fellowship, which supports Evangelical pastors and leaders to transcend toxic polarization in their congregations, their communities, and across the country. It is a network of Christian leaders shepherding their communities to live out the Gospel and place their identity in Christ above partisanship and societal divisions. In this time of great division, the Matthew 5:9 Fellowship connects leaders grappling with division in the US and supports them to speak and act effectively to build a future in which all human beings are treated as image-bearers of God regardless of earthly divisions. We are called to be peacemakers, not merely peacekeepers.
