Spring and Summer, How Different You Are


Spring Tour starts today, and it will be our last tour as a team. As it becomes painfully clear that this is it for us, I hope we will seize every opportunity put before us. In the midst of the inevitable exhaustion, and a bit of a “senioritis” feeling, I hope we will use all that we’ve learned up to this point to thrive in the ministry we’re a part of. Pray with me that we will follow God’s will for us in this ministry, that it would be for His glory and not our own.

After this tour will be summer. CTI will send six teams overseas to locations in Asia, Latin America, and Africa. All 14 of us fulltimers will become a part of the leadership/training community for these teams. Some will lead the summer teams, some will help out with the training aspects of the summer, some will support the kitchen staff, etc. I have the privilege of being a part of the music training team this summer. More specifically, I will be serving as the bass specialist. I’m very excited learn 6 repertoires of music and to work it all out with the six bass players for the summer!

On top of this, I’ll be playing guitar for the summer worship team as well. Each day we’ll begin by submitting our work and our efforts to God through musical worship. Then we’ll proceed to equip the summer team members for everything they’ll need for their several weeks overseas: music training, culture exercises, and spiritual discussions/seminars. It’s all very exciting and I can’t wait to share it all with you guys.

But for now, let’s focus on the mission at hand. See you soon Cali, Texas, Colorado, and all the less cool states in between.
