Thinks in hooks, headlines, and high-impact visuals
Can capture the heart of a moment on Sunday and turn it into meaningful digital storytelling during the week

Who This Role Fits Best
You see digital media as discipleship, not decoration.
Bonus points for knowing who Brady Shearer, Sean Cannell, or Gary Vee are, and how their insights could serve the church.
You create content that is beautiful, biblical, and actually worth following.
You align with the vision of Doxa and want to translate our felt experience into the digital space to reach the Puget Sound (and beyond) for Jesus.
