Carnal College, Cheerleaders and Porn Stars: living in nostalgia and pursuing God’s glory

Flashback a couple years As I mentioned in previous posts, I was born and raised in England. It was only about a year ago that it really acknowledged the idea that I went to a Christian primary school (aka elementary school). And after that I attended a “Christian” secondary school; in fact, it was more [...]

Cheers to three years! Hope for more in year four!

Today marks my third year knowing and walking with God and marks the forth year that I am about to enter in to. It’s been a fun year, full of tears, full of growth and answered prayer. It pretty much closely marks a full year being in Canada and a full year being involved with [...]

Baptism: Identifying with Jesus!

I love my cousin; he’s pretty much the brother I’ve never had. He was saved around about July 7th 2009 and was baptised July 7th this year! It has been such a blessing to be able to witness God transform him and his life this last year, and so encouraging for me to see. As dumb [...]

Frosted Fleece: How Jesus confirmed by calling

How the Lord affirmed my calling…
It was as if he just gave me the thumbs up to say, “Yes! this is exactly what I want you do to and this is exactly what I have put in your heart and I’m going to do it for you and through you. You have my support, I will not let you go out unequiped and not-ready. Your life is ordained by me and I will bring it to pass”.

My Grand Weaver (Part 2): My Beginnings of Church Planting

I flew back out to Malaysia to sort out the work visa. It was Thursday morning in Malaysia around 11am – 12pm I was at the Canadian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur waiting for them to approve my visa. I must have been waiting between 30 – 60 mins. Finally someone called me through and my initial documents where approved. I went back to the office and almost emailed immediately the church letting them know it went through okay. It was only in a moment then I received a reply that they had just been praying for me in their Community Groups! When I look at the time difference, the young church core members were praying for me as I waited. I couldn’t believe how awesome God’s timing is in everything!!

My Grand Weaver (Part 1): How I ended up in a nowhere town of BC

How I ended up living in a town in the middle of nowhere.
It was there and then my heart leapt. I came across a new site I hadn’t visited or seen before, it was a brand new church plant in Squamish, of all places, and the planters and pastors there had blogged about going to Seattle for a [esvignore]Acts 29[/esvignore] church planting conference. My heart and spirit leapt!! I was very excited about this plant!

Rebirth: How Jesus Transformed my Life

I felt really stupid, as if I was talking to a figure of my imagination. I spoke aloud at times, and sometimes simply in my thoughts, “God if you are real show yourself to me”. I can’t remember all the specifics of what I said and thought in that moment. All I remember is that [...]

Stone to Flesh: How Jesus Changed my Heart

I didn’t do anything and I was seeking nothing. Nothing changed in spite of the traumas I had been through. Even in my desperation I did not even attempt to seek him

Something stirred in me, and it led me to seriously re-evaluate my future, my past, and my sense of morality. I began to question what was right and wrong again, and I was angry at the thought that I could be wrong. Memories or all I had learnt from Sunday School as a child, every law, seemed to waft in to my mind. I was very troubled at the idea of being wrong.

Lust for Love & Love for Lust: My Life before Jesus

I ended up in a serious situation where, having completely mutilated the idea of what real love and intimacy is, I deferred my university education for year, lied to my parents and left the country to live with a man I had barely met half a dozen times to pursue a sexually driven lifestyle.

In severe debt from my spending habits, I dangerously became financially dependent on him. I left the country to take time out, to find love and in turn I had compromised my safety, my health and my relationships. I sold myself out for holidays, for money and for what I thought was love.
