Church of God in Christ, Inc
As COGIC General Assembly Chairman, Bishop L.F. Thuston provides leadership and direction to the General Assembly, presides over the General Assembly sessions and ensures the rights of all delegates to be heard. His Chats with the Chairman Live series allows Bishop Thuston to connect the six million members of COGIC in 100-plus countries to the General Assembly. Using in-depth conversation, Chairman Thuston takes each session to interact with COGIC members, show how the General Assembly’s actions impact the church at various levels and how members can be involved in the church’s future.
"In the General Assembly the specifics and continuity of [ C.H. Mason's] vision was cast...this is where the strength and the integrity of the denominational structure was viewed, tested and monitored for the first 54 years of the church."
A brief excerpt about founder C.H. Mason from Bishop L.F. Thuston’s book Decently and in Order in the Sanctified Church.
