Life.Church wants to make a lasting difference in your life, in our community, and in the world. Our mission is to lead people to become fully devoted followers of Christ. That's how we’re able to make a difference, and it's the driving force behind everything we do.

The Strategic Communications Manager is primarily responsible for helping shape and steward the voice of YouVersion through organizational narrative and messaging. This role works closely with the Chief Communications Officer to steward message consistency and help equip our ministry and leaders with content ready for high-visibility moments, while operating under the leadership of the Sr. Director of Public Relations.

The Public Relations Team is part of the Life.Church Communications Group, which consists of four teams—including Social Media, Communication, and Marketing—who collectively develop strategies for how our ministry meets people where they are and empowers them to become fully devoted followers of Christ. Through YouVersion, one of Life.Church's digital ministries, this team helps tell the story of Scripture in the hands of hundreds of millions of people around the world.

This role operationally supports the team's direction, initiatives, and ministry efforts to achieve outcomes that further Life.Church’s mission and reach people for Christ.
