My Heart For The House

Well, I am on a plane for a change!! When we land it will be Sunday morning at home and if all goes to plan… I’ll grab a quick shower and then a big day doing my favourite thing in all the world… pastoring our wonderful church!

I love the opportunity to do what I do. I grew up listening to my Mum and Dad’s mealtime conversations with other church leaders, and I aspired to “one day” be one of them - building a ministry, helping people, preaching, travelling to far away places to share the gospel and growing God’s kingdom.

But the idea of building a church was my biggest dream. I can still remember when Bobbie and I sat in her car (it was nicer than mine) late into the night as a wide-eyed newly engaged couple, thinking of our shared commitment to build our marriage around ministry.

And here we are, more than 30 years on and still “living the dream”. And fresh off the wire… we still have dreams in terms of what we are believing to see God do!

Sometimes my heart for the house is almost bursting!
