Mission Team from Pennsylvania – Last Wednesday, a mission team from Harvest Baptist Church in Natrona Heights, PA helped us distribute 5000 church tracts along with our Holiday Bible Club and Community BBQ invites. They were in London helping another church but had a free day to assist us. We are grateful for the impact […]
Book Review: Grace-Based Parenting by Tim Kimmel
Being a parent is one of the most exciting and terrifying experiences of any person’s life. Walking with our children through the ups and downs of life can produce both exhilarating joy and petrifying fear. This is probably what Solomon meant when he said, “A wise son maketh a glad father; but a foolish son is […]
Ministry Update – Trips, Events, Preaching, World Cup, Stabbings
Trips – It has been a busy few weeks with a trip to Northern Ireland two weeks ago and then a two-day discipleship conference in Coventry last week. It was good on both trips to spend time with fellow laborers and to make some new friends in the ministry. I particularly enjoyed hearing Bill Hull speak […]
What We Need to Go On
1 Kings 19:7 And the angel of the Lord came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee. 1 Kings 19:12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice. […]
Striving For Sexual Purity in Our Homes
I am sure it will come as no surprise that remaining sexually pure in our society is not easy. There are numerous ways a person can be tempted and more ways than ever to indulge in lust. The ubiquity of mobile devices has certainly made pornography more accessible and more anonymous than ever before. As […]
June 2018 Prayer Letter
Dear Pastors & Praying Friends, Last month, we had our missions weekend with an international meal and international day. Actually, every time we meet feels a bit like international day, because our church is made up of people from so many different cultural and ethnic backgrounds. The cultural diversity in London and in our church […]
Book Review: The Pastor’s Kid by Barnabas Piper
Even though my two brothers and I are all in the ministry and are all married to pastor’s daughters, we did not grow up in a pastor’s home. Our parents are wonderful committed Christians and have always been very involved in church, but, to some degree, we were spared some of the drama that comes from […]
Ministry Update – Camping Trip, Sunday Service, Visitor from America, Birthday
Camping – This past weekend, a few of the men from the church went up to the Peak district in the middle of England for some camping and Christian fellowship. Men came from several churches across different parts of the country. We really enjoyed the beauty of that area and the opportunity to spend some […]
Encouragement for Personal Bible Reading
I wrote the following post on our church website and wanted to share it here on my personal website as well. I hope it will encourage you as you seek to have a time where you read God’s Word each day. Devotions…Quiet Time…God and I Time – These are all ways I have heard personal […]
Book Review: The Conviction to Lead by Al Mohler
I have never thought of myself as a natural leader, and maybe you feel the same way. For that reason, I really liked Al Mohler’s book, “The Conviction to Lead” because it is written to help turn “Believers into Leaders and the Leaders into Believers.” The book helped me realise that there are times that […]
