The "Timothys and Joshuas /
Marthas and Priscillas" Project
One of the main concerns for our ministry from the beginning has been:
"Who will be the 'Timothys and Joshuas' or 'Marthas and Priscillas' who will continue this ministry work when we retire or pass on, if the Lord doesn't return before that time?"
So when we ask "Would you like to join COMIX35?" it's not because we're just looking for more media missionaries or staff.
We're searching for a future leader.
We need a Christian brother or sister who has the strong interest, energy, enthusiasm, and thoroughness necessary to do the work of this ministry – a hardworking, servant-hearted, Philippians 2:4 ("look also to the interests of others") kind of person – who also has some level of knowledge and experience in the field of comics.
We know that the person we seek is literally one-in-a-million.
So we are holding a multi-stage "audition" to locate that unique person.
The 3 stages are tests that are set up to help us identify:
[1] Interested Applicants
[2] Potential Candidates
[3] Our Top Prospect
If this sounds exciting to you, and you think you may be the answer to our one-in-a-million challenge, it's possible you might have what it takes to be the future leader this ministry requires.

Here's what you should do NOW to get the process started:
- Use the Site Map to read through all the pages of the COMIX35 site in order to familiarize yourself with the history of the ministry as well as future plans and projects.
- Read the COMIX35 Statement of Belief and make sure you agree with it.
- Download and fill out the Stage 1 Application and return it to us by postal mail or e-mail along with your résumé or c.v. as soon as possible.
|
All materials submitted by Interested Applicants will be read and reviewed by Nate Butler and the Board members of COMIX35. We will acknowledge all applications by e-mail with 1-2 weeks of receipt. (Please do not postal mail one-of-a-kind materials, such as original artwork, as no submitted materials will be returned.)
Interested Applicants will be informed within 1-2 months whether or not they have been selected as Potential Candidates.
All Potential Candidates will be informed of what will be required to complete Stage 2 and to be considered as our Top Prospect.
In Stage 3, our Top Prospect will have the opportunity to join current staff and Board members of COMIX35 to become acquainted personally, to receive one-on-one “schooling” from staff and Board in their areas of expertise, to go through a COMIX35 orientation, and/or to attend some mini-Missionary Development sessions.
Our goal is to meet with our Top Prospect in November 2009, if we have identified someone by that time, Lord willing.

Currently COMIX35 is open to starting our Top Prospect in several possible working arrangements, including the following:
- Living in West Texas USA, running a new branch office, raising personal support, working on ministry staff full-time ... or running the new office part-time and "tentmaking" part-time
- Living in New Mexico USA, working through the main office, raising personal support, working on ministry staff either full-time or part-time
- Living elsewhere in the USA, working long-distance as a "tentmaker" cyber-volunteer
- Living in a foreign country, working long-distance as a "tentmaker" cyber-volunteer
After a mutually agreeable trial period, other living/working arrangements may be desirable or necessary.
