Brokenness

I am at a place in my life where I feel completely broken, I’ve got things going on inside me that have left me with no choice but to place my trust in God. I’ve had to say bye to some very close friends, endured criticism for some of the things i do etc and it has really left me feeling broken. Im not broken because of one problem but…

No More Drama

When Jesus sent out his disciples to preach the gospel he gave them a strong warning that they would experience great trials and persecution. Among other statements, he did this not to scare them but to prepare them so when persecution came they where not surprised and it also confirmed that they where making an impact.
What kind of trials can I expect?

I trust that you have done some heart surgery this past week and no doubt God would have shown you the area’s in your life that are corrupt and given you direction to restore the damage.

Open your door, take a walk down your street, look carefully and maybe speak to a few people and you will begin to find out that there is so much sorrow in this world today. People are loosing family members because they can’t afford health care, the homeless freeze to Death in…

I’m a Millionaire [Part 2]

The world promotes a craving for physical pleasure, pride in our achievements and possessions. You can find evidence for this by watching MTV for one day, maybe even half and hour in some cases. From MTV cribs to Making the Band with P Diddy there is a constant message in the media that motivates us to chase after the cars, the house, the lifestyle etc. In other words “the American…

I’m a Millionaire

I remember in October 2004 when I heard the new release “Millionaire” by Kelis and Andree 3000, being a fan of electro beats this tune was explosive for me. As I began to listen to the lyrics I laughed because I actually woke up mad early that morning…but as the song progressed I took interest to the main message which was like a word to me. Now four years later…

Posted 15 May 2009 in Latest News

What inspired me to take a sabbatical? The story started in August 08, I had the opportunity to serve on the London leg of the Unashamed tour, during the concert there was a call for all people involved in a church leadership capacity to join Ben Washer from Reach Records backstage. So about 50 of us gathered in the back of the room and had a very challenging discussion about…
