My dad (Roger Pauley) pastored the Cranberry Baptist Church in Beckley for 33 years and 3 months. Almost three years ago, he retired from the pastorate and passed the shepherd’s staff to Pastor Kevin Cormican. The process was blessed by God at every step, and the health and growth of the church is a testament to God’s favor. As a church member, I can tell you that it is a wonderful thing when God’s peace rules in a church.
I sat down for an extended conversation with these two shepherds about how God led each of them and how God directed the church through the transition. It was a moving and fascinating discussion, and I believe you will be blessed by watching the two perspectives. May the Lord continue to raise up men with a shepherd’s heart, and may we continue to follow.
