West Cocoa Chat

I had lunch with our minister and a good friend of mine, Ray, who is one of our deacons. I jokingly referred to us as the “brain trust” of our church. We discussed wanting to streamline our worship services. And as most of us in the church usually do when we get together, we “solved” the problems of needy members and the church at large in our conversation. I wonder how much trouble we can get into when a local church is being “led” by a preacher who is a retired career submariner, an active Sgt. Major in the National Guard who has seem combat action in Afghanistan, and a middle school math teacher? Hopefully we’re “smart’ enough to get out of the way and let the Holy Spirit lead this church.
