The Montana Southern Baptist Convention is entering a significant season of prayer, discernment, and anticipation as we seek the next Executive Director to lead our family of churches. This role is vital—not just administratively, but spiritually—helping shape the vision, health, and gospel impact of our convention for years to come.

We believe God already knows who this next leader will be. Our task is to listen, seek, and follow His lead faithfully. As your Executive Director Search Committee, we are committed to a process that is prayer-driven, Spirit-led, and marked by integrity, unity, and transparency.

This page will serve as the central hub for everything related to the search:

• Key updates and announcements
• The full position profile and qualifications
• A timeline of the search process
• Ways you and your church can pray

Whether you’re a pastor considering this calling, a church member praying for our future, or a friend of the MTSBC who wants to stay connected—we welcome you. Your prayers matter. Your voice matters. And your partnership in the gospel across this vast and beautiful state of Montana matters deeply.

Together, let’s seek God’s heart for who will lead us next—not just with resumes and interviews, but with faith, wisdom, and a desire to see every church healthy and every community reached.

Because He Lives!
