I believe the church has an unbelievable moment opening before her with the sliding economic situations in the West. I do not want to state too much presumptively, but I must write what I feel prophetically the Lord is saying about this season. For a while I have seen a kind of ‘Daniel season’ coming … More The Church in the Credit Crunch
I’m still here, and crazy busy! Feel like I haven’t written anything for the blog in ages but don’t worry, that will change very soon. I’ve got lots brewing, including a 10-12,000 word project on Old Testament treatment of money and how that translates today (okay maybe that’s too much to put on a blog!!) … More I’m still here
How far this will go and of what profound effect in the world of cyberspace I do not know, only if someone reads it, perhaps they’d just like to give it some consideration! I wanted to write concerning the so-called Lakeland Outpouring regarding some Christians’ attitude which unfortunately has been allowed to go unchecked in … More My little response to Lakeland

We’ve had a whole bunch of people from our church who have been to Lakeland in Florida where there is an incredible outpouring of the Spirit, and they’re seriously carrying something back! Chris Orange especially, our worship leader and my mentor, he walked into Tescos and … More Healing testimonies
I’m coming back to the heart of worship Where it’s all about You All about You, Jesus I’m sorry Lord for the thing I’ve made it ‘Cause it’s all about You All about You, Jesus So goes the chorus of Matt Redman’s well-loved song “When the Music Fades”. Yet I wonder even with it’s many … More Worship 3: I’m coming back to the heart
I was asking the Lord the other night as I was praying, “Lord, show me Your heart. Show me even just a little bit of what You’re saying and doing right now.” I have a real hunger for discovering and understanding the purpose of God. What He left me with is, I believe, only a … More The voice of the Lord
In a bit of a daze at the end of a hard week it appears a little foggy to me to be able to answer this with clarity now but I can at least safely say I can see two answers. At dinner tonight with friends, talk first turned to the swiftly closing Mayoral elections … More Where does Capitalism end?
