Is there a way to make this part of a SELECT query more concise?

AND ministry_directory.listing_approved NOT LIKE '0' AND
ministry_directory.listing_approved NOT LIKE '4'

I know of the

IN ( 10, 12 )

command. Is there something similar available for NOT LIKE?

In the SQL standard this would be

AND NOT ministry_directory.listing_approved=0 AND NOT
ministry_directory.listing_approved=4

MySQL supports (and there are probably more RDBs that do):

AND ministry_directory.listing_approved!=0 AND
ministry_directory.listing_approved!=4
