Texarkana Reformed Baptist Church is seeking a biblically qualified, Reformed Baptist evangelist who would serve our congregation as one of the Elders and as an evangelist to those who need the gospel in Texarkana.

This is not an open-air preaching role but rather a relational, gospel-centered outreach ministry that seeks to engage the lost, disciple new believers, and equip the church for evangelism.

Our church can pay a stipend, but this could be a support raising role for the right man. Because this is a support-raised position, the candidate must be willing to develop financial partnerships with individuals and churches who believe in the mission of gospel proclamation.

Responsibilities

• Engage in personal, relational evangelism within the 5-mile radius around Texarkana Reformed Baptist Church.
• There are many gospel opportunities on college campuses, low income housing, door to door evangelism, and our monthly food distribution outreach
• Develop and implement gospel outreach strategies such as home Bible studies, community engagement, and evangelistic discipleship.
• Work alongside the elders to equip and encourage church members in biblical evangelism.
• Engage with those struggling with addiction, homelessness, and poverty, sharing the gospel while providing biblical hope and practical discipleship.
• Assist in outreach events such as VBS, Fall Festivals, and other church-hosted gatherings to maximize their gospel impact.
• Disciple new converts, helping them grow in Christ and integrate into the church.
• Assist in various ministries within the church, including teaching opportunities as needed.

Qualifications

• A born-again believer with a strong, personal relationship with Christ and a passion for evangelism.
• A strong commitment to Reformed Baptist theology and full agreement with the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith.
• A deep love for all kinds of people, regardless of background, and a heart to see them come to Christ.
• A strong desire for people to become true followers of Jesus, not just religious adherents.
• Experience in personal evangelism, discipleship, and outreach ministry (formal or informal).
• A heart for ministering to those affected by addiction, homelessness, and brokenness, pointing them to Christ.
• A humble, teachable spirit and willingness to serve under the oversight of the church elders.
• A heart for hospitality and building meaningful, gospel-centered relationships.
• A demonstrated ability (or willingness) to raise financial support for ministry.
• A life that meets the biblical qualifications of a minister (1 Timothy 3:1-7, Titus 1:5-9).

Support & Accountability

This is a support-raised position, meaning the evangelist/missionary will develop financial partnerships for their ministry. While Texarkana Reformed Baptist Church will provide oversight, prayer, encouragement, and accountability, it cannot provide a full salary.

However, our vocational elder, Matt Smart, will assist in fundraising and be a support throughout the process. He has extensive experience in evangelistic ministry and will help guide and encourage the evangelist/missionary as they step into this role.
