Here at CTI we are always sure to emphasize one thing: It’s not about the music. It is the goal that in WHATEVER we do we work at it with all our heart, to give our best to God.  Every morning begins with individual quiet time and a time of corporate worship--all meant to bring glory to God and set the tone for the day. Throughout the day team members will have sectionals, full band rehearsal, seminars, and team time. Many team members are away from home for the first time or have never been overseas before. All of it is exciting, but it can also be overwhelming and challenging. It is the prayer that through the fun, excitement, challenge, and joy, team members will grow in a deeper relationship with God and be prepared to “actively share their faith and gain a fuller understanding of every good thing they have in Christ” (Philemon 6). Last night team members were part of a seminar titled “The Essentials of the Gospel”, tonight they will begin exploring how their story fits in with God’s story and how they can use it share the hope found in Christ. Take a look below to see some highlights from last two days of training and join us in prayer for the team members and for the overseas partners we will be working with.
