  1. The need to be a bit schizo about church - love and accept it for what it and its people are; and expect so much more of it and its people.
  2. There's an irony in my love of these vss-The LORD alone will be exalted in that day...stop trusting in man, of what account is he? Is2:17-22
  3. Leaders profoundly shape the culture of the gp they lead - unconsiously. The reason they need to be theologians first, leaders second.
  4. The gospel grows the true spiritual church - not sociological insights and strategies. But sociology might help multiply the gospel impact.
  5. Bible is God's Spirit speaking to me now in the present. Not only him having spoken - Heb 3:7. Don't harden your heart! Listen with care.
  6. Faithful gospel ministry is key. But grateful to see God give fruit- 90 ppl signed up for 6wk 'investigate xnity' at EV this wk. Thankful.
  7. My eldest son does the surf report for a local radio station every fri arvo. They had this to say about his segment! - cracked.podbean.com/chillis-surf-r…
  8. Atheist critiquing Atheists. Signfiicant article pointed out to me by Al - smh.com.au/opinion/societ…
  9. 1st day of camping holiday. Rained all day... but the surf is good. For the moment holiday working!
  10. Excited by news that next stage of EV church property development (1100 seat auditorium) approved by Gosford City Council. Now to build it.
  11. Ought not be a Christian leader if you can't cope with conflict. If you don't want to lead then you need to grow up. Feel constrained!
  12. @TimmyClemens lots of reasons to like it a lot. Worth reading. Especially with the transform city theo around.
  13. Heading into our regular staff reading meeting. Have all just read DeYoung's book 'What is the mission of the church'? Will be discussing.
  14. Weekend sermon created most enthusiasm and gladness - and anger. Not unusual that both reactions happen together.
  15. Love this - school mum invited friend to Church. Came to Jan series with husband. Connected into Life course. Last week both converted!
  16. Just back from fishing with my 18yr old daughter. Glad she wants to spend time with me! Caught a few fish. Had a good time. Love her company
  17. First surf after 3 wks of being in UK. Very nice. Although a great trip - good to be back in oz.
  18. Last few days UK ministry. Stirred by lots of gutsy gospel ministers. Bristol today (evang training). Preach Sheffield then Manchester Sun.
  19. @STimmis on my way. Leaving the bright sunshine.....!
