March 26, 2022For the past several years, Holiness Tabernacle begins the new year with 3 weeks of consecration. Several members from different backgrounds are asked to share a message to uplift and encourage the church. The services conclude with a 3-day revival that Elder Powell, and the Evangelistic Team (of which he is the president) coordinate.
His message, entitled "What Are You Eating?" focused on three points: (1) Be prepared to eat; (2) Everyone Eats; (3) What's On Your Plate? As a pastor I am keenly interested in the spiritual growth and engagement of the congregation during messages. Elder Powell "hit the mark". Of course, we always glorify God when the Spirit moves and the people are uplifted, but God has to have a vessel through which He can work. Elder Powell was most certainly used by the Lord during this final night of our 2022 revival and consecration.

I prefer a headset mic or a small form factor mic that can primarily be hidden. Stages with stairs to allow easy access with an audience, or sitting on the edge of a stage. I like to walk and connect when possible.
