I received two letters from Fifth Avenue Baptist Church in Knoxville this weekend. The letters were from Bill Riggins, head of the steering committee and dated September 2nd and 4th respectively. The letters give me until Septemeber 15th and 19th to officially apply for their position as pastor. Yes, they gave me two different deadlines. I last preached at the church on December 2nd.
They will be paying for a bi-vocational pastor and with my meticulous sermon preparation time alone, I would exceed part-time hours. I am also working on a PhD which is time consuming to say the least.
Pray for my decision and especially the church during this process.
