On Monday night, we had our Board of Leaders meeting and our Associate Pastor opened up the meeting with an exercise on “the land in-between”. It was a study on Exodus 15-17 (which she will be preaching this Sunday).
For you see, we are in a time of “the land in-between”. Pastor Joe founded CTS 30 years ago and has been the Senior Pastor for all those years. He resigned and his last Sunday was Sunday. We had our Board of Leraders meeting the following day and has Pastor Libby shared, we are in the land in-between. We will have an interim come in while we search for the next Senior Pastor.
In Exodus, they had no food, no water and were at war. They were mad and angry at God at times and they were looking back to the past and wishing that they were back in the past and with the familiar and the comfortable — even though the comfortable was slaves.
To be honest, I do not know what is going to happen. But, I am excited about the possibilities and I have to put my faith and trust in God. I know that He is with us in this journey and we will “ride any storm” that we may encounter.
There are many great things that are occuring with CTS and I believe many great things will happen in the near future. Let us get ready for the ride.
