Opening Paragraph—Setting the Stage.

The sabbatical grant writing team has been hard at work. Here is a glimpse at our draft first paragraph…

What does a church do when there is a healthy relationship between pastor and congregation, but the two have become so comfortable with each other that creative tension no longer exists? Are we so complacent that the church is in danger of becoming “lukewarm” like the church in Laodicea (Revelation 3:16)? We do not want to let that happen. We see a sabbatical as a time to reflect, redefine and revive our purpose as Evergreen Presbyterian Church.

This is way too much fun.

Alyssa doesn't like the term "creative tension"...she thinks it should be along the lines of "passion" or "excitement".
