Hey everyone! Hope this finds you well.

These last 24 hours or so have seen a lot of things fall into place, and I’m reminded of how good the God we serve is.

I had a phone call from a employment agency with a job working as a general dogsbody in a Solicitors office here in Cardiff. After a brief description of what the job entailed. I was able to tell the agency what my almost unique requirements are at this time (with the London Stuff about to happen).

The agency said they would be willing to allow me to be at this job temporarily. Upon further investigation, I then discovered that the company has an office smack bang in the centre of London too, so there’s every chance I could move jobs seamlessly as I move into London.

I’m due to phone the agency back tomorrow, so I’d appreciate your prayers as I sort things out.

Internet Campus – 9am Experience begins!

As I’ve been mentioning, my church today started the first of what I believe will be many extra services to cope with the different time zones across the world. It was great to see so many out, including a bunch from the US and Mexico, and I have to give massive praise to those guys that stayed up late/got up early to join with us European and African natives. If you’re reading this, you made a difference this morning so thank you!

One of the things that I’ve always loved about LifeChurch.tv is the teaching, and today was no exception. We started a new series called ‘Hostage’, in which we’re going to be discussing things that can hold us hostage. Today it was bitterness, and as always, it was incisive and very clear, and I certainly learned loads from it.

Next week we’re discussing fear, so if you can, come out and give LC.tv a try! If 9am GMT is a bit too early for you, we also hold services at 10am and 11:30am US Central Time.

Hey guys, sorry it’s been awhile!

It’s been a quiet period really since my last post, the excitement of telling people about the London move has given way to the realisation of what exactly needs to be done before I can move, and it’s just a case now of knuckling down and getting on with it.

A friend of mine told me to always expect opposition when we step out into the things of God, and this past weekend has seen that in a major way for me. I would appreciate your prayers as I continue to move forward.

Anyway, as I’ve said in a previous post, the LifeChurch.tv Internet Campus launches a new experience time for the European and African time zones this Sunday. It’s at 9am GMT (which is 10am CET and 11am for most of Africa I think). I’m excited to see exactly what God can do using this experience, and I’m also looking forward to meeting new people there.

Hope to see you there!

Internet Campus – truly a global community

For all those who think that the Internet can’t be used to create true biblical community, check out Lifechurch.tv’s Internet Campus. I’ve been attending for nearly a year now, and I keep getting blown away by just how much a sense of community exists there.

A good example of this happened last night. I attend a LifeGroup on the Campus, and we gathered together last night to pray for each other. It was easy to forget that we were separated by hundreds, and even thousands of miles.

For the European and African based readers, there’s now a chance to at least check out what LC.tv is all about, as they are launching a new experience time from February 17th at 9am GMT (That’s 10am CET).

Thanks for reading.
