When you go out to look for a person of peace what exactly do you say? This is a question that I guess is on your mind and that of many other people who are new to disciple making by looking for a person of peace. It is a good question and I would give…
What made the first disciples of Jesus attractive? What makes you look at a person and say, it is good to serve God? When we went to Kington to plant a church in 2010 we met a lady called Alita that always reminds me of what it means to be a disciple of Jesus! Alita…
Jesus told his disciples to look for a person of peace when he sent them out in Luke 10:6. It is wise to use the same method when going out to make disciples. This is even more relevant when you are trying to reach out to a community that you are not living in. Here…
I have read in David Watson’s book titled “Contagious disciple making” that it takes about 4 years for a movement to take off. I am sure there is room for a miracle where it takes shorter, but in general, it takes time and there are good reasons for that. There are reasons why it takes…

For many years when I went out for “evangelism” I only thought about winning people for Jesus. I wanted as many people as…
God will work with available vessels. I sense that we would experience more of God if only we can recognize how helpless we are without Him! A fifteen-year-old boy named Donald was wonderfully converted and became an outstanding helper in the revival. One day Campbell called at Donald’s home and found him on his knees…
We have been doing something called church in the home for a few years now. We take one Sunday and we have our meetings in the home. Thanks to the pandemic we have been having virtual church in the home every week for many months now. Church in the home can be scary for some…
I am always blown away by the way God works. No one is too young or too old. See what God did with two elderly ladies. One of them was blind. Everyone can pray! In 1949 in the village of Barvas, Rev. James Murray MacKay was the parish minister. For months he and his church…
