Like many of you can attest to, pastoring has been difficult these past couple of years.
So many unprecedented issues, along with the old regular ones, to deal with and to navigate wisely and pastorally.
Online church, outdoor church, new restrictions, limited capacity – and who knows what next Sunday might be.
It’s been a challenge to say the least.
It was enough to prompt Steve to call for help.
He realized that in order to get through, he would need some other people.
His wife Charlotte joined in and helped with teaching and hosting “Steve & Charlotte in the Morning” on Facebook as a way to connect with the congregation.
Then John and Kathy responded.
John was a board member and Steve’s former youth pastor.
Together, they did team teaching for the next few months.
It’s one of the big bonuses of Christian spirituality.
Not only is God with us, but He’s made us as a part of a much bigger entity.
This isn’t a solo trip we’re on – we’re part of the body of Christ.
It’s how God designed it to be.
