"Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." - Proverbs 27:17
No one knows what it is like to pastor a church, but a pastor. Each of us comes to the table with different perspectives, levels of experience, and personal challenges. We all leave the table encouraged and knowing that we are not alone.
Minister Roundtables provide a place for ministers to share their hearts and lean on others who are called to equip God's people for the work of ministry. Currently there are several active Roundtables going on in the Centennial Association. If you are a pastor or minister in our area who would like to be a part of one of our Roundtables, contact the CBA office at 706-647-4959 or centennialbaptistassociation@gmail.com.
