GUARD IT - ANNIVERSARY SUNDAY - CHRIS HODGES

Summary

The sermon announces a significant leadership transition where Pastor Mark Pettus will become the lead pastor, and Chris Hodges will transition to the role of founding pastor, focusing on Highlands College. This change, developed over two years with counsel from elders and family, aims to empower future leaders by shifting Hodges' focus from day-to-day church operations to a more strategic role in leadership development and the college. The practical takeaway is that this transition allows leaders to live out their ultimate calling and continue serving effectively, much like a grandparent cherishes guiding grandchildren.
