Our Pastors

Throughout the Bible, the terms Pastor, Elder, and Overseer are used synonymously.  Pastors are those men that are called to lead New Life.

The Bible is clear that it is Jesus that is the Chief Shepherd and Senior Pastor of the global church and of New Life Church. According to Col. 1:18, Jesus is “the head of the body, the church”.  We follow his example and direction in our human leadership, fulfilling the roles that Jesus fulfills perfectly:

  • Prophet: the people must be taught the Bible
  • Priest: the people must be loved
  • King: the people must be led
The men that lead the church must lead like Jesus – not to replace him, but to follow him and serve his people as described in the Bible.
