The role of an Executive Pastor (or XP) can be difficult to define. It's not a new role, but it tends to look different based on the culture and structure of each church. Sometimes, the XP role goes by a different title altogether. Whatever your church decides to call it, this individual usually oversees human resources, facilities, insurance, finances, and making sure everything behind-the-scenes runs smoothly. Since this role varies by church, there are a handful of resources to check out to find a definition that works for your situation.
