The Communications Coordinator tells the unique story of Centerpoint Church: a safe place for anyone, struggling with anything, to explore the message of Jesus. Using tools such as social media, email, our website, our Centerpoint Church App, and other digital and traditional media tools, we communicate to bring the radical, grace-filled message of Jesus to people, while eliminating the barriers that many have to the church (barriers like stuffy language, judgmental people, strange customs, a lack of empathy and an intolerance to doubt). We are bold-faith risk-takers, always willing to try new things to reach people for Jesus, so bring your innovative mind and creativity with you!
