Southern Heights Christian Church
Southern Heights Christian Church is an established church of approximately 275 that has a young and energetic staff anxious to build on current momentum that has been fueled by recent staff restructuring. This process has included an emphasis on team-driven ministry, embracing a fail-forward culture, and a “push-down” model of decision making for the sake of empowering ministry staff to dream and grow their spheres of responsibility as led by the Holy Spirit. Lebanon is a growing community in a county of approximately 36,000 in Central Missouri, just a short drive from the Lake of the Ozark's. The community boasts a strong job market and cost of living significantly below the national average. The beautiful Niangua and Gasconade Rivers run through the area in addition to the iconic route 66. Locals are known to enjoy the scenic beauty of the Ozarks by leisurely floating down the river, and the fishing opportunities are tremendous as recognized by Outdoor life Magazine which has named Lebanon a Top 200 Town for Sportsman on multiple occasions. Lebanon is truly a friendly place with friendly people and is a great place to raise a family while embracing a slower pace of life.
