Vision Alive

I read again in Floyd McClung’s book ‘You See Bones – I see and Army’ the quote “the person with a vision is never at the mercy of people without one.” I was in a coffee shop, having driven the 100 miles to our nearest car servicing garage, and nwow filling up the 5 hour … More Vision Alive

Church

I got into a conversation with a Canadian earlier. This Canadian lives a part of Canada where, from what I can pick up, are several decent sized Salvation Army corps, a couple of social centres and one or two charity shops. The said Canadian enthusiastically shared that she volunteered at The Salvation Army. ‘Great’, I … More Church

Get Praying

Started off our door-to-door prayer ministry this afternoon. The basic idea is that we make contact with people in their homes and ask if they want prayer for anything. Tracy did some prep last week and delivered a copy of the War Cry to one of the streets in the town. I followed on today … More Get Praying

Friend of Sinners

Tonight in Bible study we got on to considering the accusation that was hurled at Jesus, ‘friend of sinners.’ We managed to move on from the fact that this wasn’t just a regular title, that it wasn’t just a reassurance that he was a friend of ours, as sinners. We spoke about the fact it … More Friend of Sinners

Uprising Thoughts

I’m very much enjoying soaking in ‘The Uprising’ by Captain Stephen Court and Olivia Munn. Its a great read, full of depth, revelation, challenge, teaching, blessing, salvationism…pretty much everything I enjoy in a book. Its interactive, conversational and direct all at the same time. Its written for teens but I know several people in 20s … More Uprising Thoughts

Fishing

So, I mentioned a few posts back the whole junior soldier and senior soldier thing. 10 senior soldiers and 20 junior soldiers. To be more exact, we’re especially talking 10 adults and 20 children saved…whether they reach soldiership during the course of the year is not quite as important, so long as they’re saved and … More Fishing

A request…..

Hello people out there in blogland…a little request. I’m looking for a ‘group’ to come and do a weekend of missioning next summer. Ideally I’d be looking at maybe two or three groups throughout the whole summer. By missioning I mean a day of open air work with evangelistic ‘festival’ in the evening, leading two … More A request…..

On the Lost

I’ve had a major ‘memory-lane’ week this week. Been hearing from a lot of friends from school…some very good friends and feeling a bit sad that we haven’t kept in touch. People all married and getting married and stuff and I haven’t been around. This is part of being an officer – you move, you … More On the Lost
