About Me
I am Director of evangelical training ministry Living Leadership. I am passionate about training and sustaining biblical leaders for a lifetime of healthy ministry. I originally started the blog to help overcome some writer's block. I didn't believe in writer's block until I got 4 chapters into a book called "Churches Love Your Leaders" and ground to an abrupt halt.
Subsequently I realised that blogging is a great way to publicise the glory and grace of God. It's helped with the writing, but I also want to use it as widely as I can to speak about grace, glory and godliness. These are the things that light my fire, the issues I want to think and write about. The Bible says that Jesus Christ is great treasure. I pray the articles and resources that will help you love, honour and submit to him.
Before founding Living Leadership I spent 13 years in student ministry with UCCF. The student mission field is very close to my heart. Helping people become strong disciples of Jesus Christ in the testing environment of the postmodern academy, helping them be thinking Christians who apply their faith to every area of life and thought is among the most important tasks of the Church in this rapidly secularising age. This concern led to my choice of postgrad studies: Postmodern Culture and Literature at London University.
The strongest call on my life is to preach the Bible and teach others to do so. That's why this blog isn't about me. God is awesome, I am not. God is holy, I am sinful. God is beautiful, his self-revelation in the Bible and in Jesus Christ is the most important feature of the whole of creation. Creation which he made for the display of his glorious grace. Creation which he upholds every second by his power, for his praise.My hope is that this blog and site will help some of you be a worshipper, a lover of God, a person who delights in his word. Someone who will gladly give him your whole life because you discover that giving your life to him is so much better than keeping it for yourself.
Jesus said:
Whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become a spring of water welling up to eternal life
It's true. That's what this blog is about.
