Springfield | Michael Nave has resigned as president of the Illinois Baptist State Association (IBSA) following his departure from Cornerstone Church in Marion where he served as lead pastor since 2007. Nave left Cornerstone in October and is starting a new ministry. Nave was completing his second one-year term as the elected IBSA president and had served two years prior to that as vice president. The IBSA Annual meeting is chaired by the president, who is a member of an IBSA church. Nave’s withdrawal means the meeting will be chaired by Carlton Binkley, the former vice president, who now assumes the role of president.
The IBSA Annual Meeting will be held at Ashburn Baptist Church in Orland Park November 12-13, 2024.
