Having spent decades in pastoral leadership in New Zealand and Australia along with living and working for 2 years in Asia, I also have a passion for equipping Believers for Christian ministry. Much of my time now is spent in mentoring people and writing brief articles for leadership. Recently I completed a teaching course (for 2 hours a week for 10 weeks) through zoom, to a group of about 25 leaders and pastors in Uganda. I am particularly passionate about the ‘glory of God’ where we are His ambassadors. Part 1 of the above course consists of ten talks with a practical emphasis directed at leadership. I am also open to teaching leaders in other countries as the Lord leads. The following articles are available for free download:
Resources
- ‘Growing in Christ’ studies for Believers by themselves or in groups.
- ‘Growing in Christ’studies in the Khmer (Cambodian) language.
- ‘Investing in Ministry’ particularly for people in pastoral ministry wanting to know the fundamentals of pastoring.
- ‘Journeying with you’ In ministry we are to learn and support one another. Here are some topics I pray will be an encouragement to you.
Leadership topics
- Essential topics to help you have a fruitful ministry, for the glory of God. These articles have a practical slant, arising from years of ministry. Fruitfulness is sowing the seed, reaping the harvest and everything in between. ‘This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.’ John 15:8.
Pam (my wife) and I live in Melbourne, Australia and are still involved in ministry. We worship at Crossway Baptist Church. A church where our mission is – ‘loving God, loving people, disciples that multiply’.
