After moving on from Handcross and the beautiful cottage in the lovely Sussex countryside, I’m now in Worcester with my great mate, Graham, until the new year, when I hpe to move into my own home. God willing, and continuing to provide, I move to Gravesend second week in January, which has just blown me away. Thank you, God’s people, for helping to make it possible – still some way to go, but your kindness and generosity is getting me there, to where I can kick off into ministry again in 2019 with a passion, after these 10 months of

THE BIG CHANGE

Posted on by Posted in Evangelism, Journal, Personal, Testimony, Travel Leave a comment

After 12 years living outside of England – 3 (sort of!) in the States, and 9 in Northern Ireland – this true dedicated Englishman has finally moved back to England. It’s a massive step of faith, as I responded to what I – and others who I have on my advisory group/Council of Reference – felt was a clear word from God. It was also confirmed by prophetic people at the conference  I spoke at recently in Dublin. I went to Northern Ireland off the back of a somewhat awful time in the States, I came back from there shattered,

JUST TO SURPRISE YOU!

Posted on by Posted in Journal, Personal, Random Thoughts, Testimony, Travel Leave a comment

It’s been a long time since I wrote a blog – I guess you might have noticed! I’ve learned a lot, especially about patience, listening for God’s voice – and then TO God’s voice, forgiveness, how to handle and begin to deal with whatever the enemy throws at me – and boy, has he had a field day this year! I’ve learned an immense amount about pain, and coping with it, loneliness, hurt, rejection, and – MUCH more importantly, about the LOVE of the Jesus I adore, worship, and who loves me with an unspeakable love. I’ve learned that, even after all

IT’S BEEN A WHILE….

Posted on by Posted in Journal, Personal, Random Thoughts, Testimony Leave a comment

It’s been a long time since I wrote a blog, my apologies for that, but there are very good reasons! This has been one of the strangest, best, hardest, and most difficult years I’ve lived through in 40 years of being in ministry! I’ve had the privilege of being involved in some terrific meetings, the privilege of seeing God heal a good number of people, draw a good number into a close relationship with him, the ‘sadness’ of seeing some people not healed, a terrific trip to Cali, Colombia in May, with one of my dearest friends, Ian friends, Ian

Prayer for healing – for me, please!

Posted on by Posted in Personal, Random Thoughts, Testimony 1 Comment

Dear Friends, Can I ask for your prayers please, for me? The last 12 months have been both amazing and tough, tough as any in the 40 years I’ve been in ministry. Countless healings, miracles, salvations, the incredible building for street kids in Cali, Colombia that was miraculously completed from nothing to beautifully functional in 8 working weeks last year… But the enemy doesn’t like it when God moves! I’m writing this with some trepidation simply because I want to be really honest, and because I feel a bit of a failure bearing in mind what I do. Early in

BEETROOT LEGS AND BASKETBALL KNEES!

Posted on by Posted in Journal, Personal, Random Thoughts, Testimony, Travel, Uncategorized 1 Comment

Quite a few of you will know that early in January, I had a ‘statutory’ appointment at a local hospital with an orthopaedic surgeon (hospital regular checkup). It wasn’t the ‘usual’ surgeon, which didn’t bother me – until he did something with my right knee which then – and to this day – I can’t understand what he was doing or trying to achieve. Knees, as I’m sure you know (!) are designed to bend backwards and forwards: this doctor took hold of the sole of my right foot (quite hard), and pushed his left hand against the side of

THE JOY OF RESCUING STREET CHILDREN & A NEW HOUSE FOR THEM!!

Posted on by Posted in Evangelism, Journal, Random Thoughts, Testimony, Travel 1 Comment

If you’ve read the posts here for some time, you might remember that in October 2016, I took a team to Cali, Colombia primarily to restore a house, in a very tough and dangerous area, to be used by a wonderful street kid’s ministry, headed up by Ophthalmic Surgeon Dr Ana Elisa Bustos Gomez. Ana Elisa – then – had 150 kids she looked after a number of days a week (in case you’re wondering, she generally works a 21 hour day! 100% true!), and funded the feeding, clothing, medical attention, and so on, our of her own salary –

FOR CALENOS READING THIS!

Posted on by Posted in Journal, Personal, Random Thoughts, Travel Leave a comment

For people who live in or near Cali, some of you will know that I’m there often – generally at least 3 times a year. I invariably bring a team, and have, for many years, mostly rented short-term apartments big enough to accommodate 5 or 6 people. As Cali is getting more and more popular for visitors (I’m President of the Cali Tourist Board!!), short-term apartments have got more and more expensive, and we ended up staying further and further out of the city, like Bochalema! I felt it was right to rent a ‘permanent’ apartment, which I did from

THE MIRACLE OF JOSE LUIS

Posted on by Posted in Evangelism, Personal, Testimony, Travel 1 Comment

    Some hardy readers of the blog will remember Jose Luis, from 5½ years ago. I met his dad, also Jose Luis, carrying a brown envelope with scans and x-rays of Jose Luis’s head: Jose Junior was then 4 months old, and his dad and mum, Ayda, had been told by a brain surgeon that there wasn’t much hope for his survival beyond about 5 years. He’d been born with his fontanelles and sutures missing – closed – in his skull. With them missing, it meant that the skull was solid, with no room for the brain to expand. That
