Pastors
Redeemer is led by a plurality of pastors. We believe the New Testament affirms two offices in the local church, pastors and deacons. Concerning pastors, the Bible uses three interchangeable terms to describe the office of pastor: pastor, elder and overseer (bishop). Our pastors serve together to shepherd Redeemer by teaching the Word of God, leading and equipping the church for ministry, providing pastoral care, and praying for the church.
