In 2002, a handful of believers came together to pray because they believed that God wanted to do a great work in western Kentucky. They were led by the late Pastor Ben Jent. Together, they shared a desire to chase after God's heart and serve others into their own greatness, therefore, Christ Tabernacle was born. Since then, prayer has remained central to everything we do here. Through prayer, we have seen God do amazing things as the church has grown to hundreds of believers who gather to worship and exit to serve our region with the love of Christ.

By this time, the original church building had begun to crumble and fall due to its old age, so CT needed to find a new home. Through God's provision, an old bar was made available on Highway US 62--the perfect location and restoration story for a new church. After much prayer and hands-on labor performed by much of the congregation, what was once an old bar filled with the smell of smoke, was now a house of worship dedicated to Jesus that would now be filled with His children.

With a sanctuary that had a limit capacity of 300 people, we were in need of space that we did not have. On top of a maxed out sanctuary, our CT Kids facility was overflowing, as well. To accommodate for the influx of both adults and children, our team decided it was time to host two services every Sunday--one at 9am and the other at 11am. To keep our congregation in unity, we were determined to conduct both meetings the same--singing the same music and receiving the same sermon. Today, we still worship and celebrate Jesus through two services full of God's people.
