CSF Lead Team

This morning we started reading in the book of Acts. If you have never read the book of Acts all the way through, you are in for a treat. In today's reading we see the Biblical importance of church leadership. Judas has killed himself and so the disciples are led by God via the Old Testament scriptures to select another person for leadership. As the first fellowship grows in size through the book of Acts, we will read about them adding more leaders and giving out specific roles and responsibilities.

Like any company, sport team or military.....a local Fellowship rises and falls on leadership. At CSF we are a staff led Fellowship and are governed by what we call our Lead Team. The Lead Team gives spiritual direction and protection for our Fellowship, while the staff handles daily operations. As a matter of fact, tomorrow morning at 7am I will meet with our CSF Lead Team. We meet once a month to discuss the purpose, game plan, direction, passion, challenges and other issues of our Fellowship. This group is non-paid, but they are faithful leaders at CSF who have taken on the responsibility of giving overall accountability and guidance to me and CSF. They give approval of the budget each year and give wisdom and approval to large expenditures....like when we purchase land, add buildings and the like.

While reading this chapter of Acts, I thought it would be good to remind you of who is on our Lead Team. Our active Lead Team members are Mark Little, Andrew Montognese, Greg Crosby and myself. Our inactive members (meaning they are taking some time off and may come back later) are Bill Branigan and Neal McGlohon. This team spends countless hours in serving our Fellowship to make sure we are staying focused on our God given purpose and game plan.

This Sunday we will continue our series on "How To Kill Your Marriage." This week we will be talking about how to stop living in the Torture Chamber that some of us call home. If you have ever felt like you married the wrong person, can't get along with your spouse, or just wish they would change....this Sunday is for you. Moreover, many of us have friends who would benefit from this message and they need us to invite them!

See you Sunday!

PS Does anyone know what that big X banner hanging in the atrium on Sunday morning?
