Outside the Scottish parliament: Today is not the day to say nothing. Today is the day to start a youtube channel. Today is the day to repent for your cowardly silence. Today is the day to have the courage of your God-given conviction. Today is the day to speak up.
I rebuke the godless government of this land and Nicola Stugeon’s sick agenda 🏴 🏴 🏴
What a disgrace: The LORD rebuke you, Nicola Sturgeon

In approaching advent this year, I wanted to provide a daily devotional series by way of an audio version of A. W. Tozer’s classic, The Knowledge of The Holy.
I’ll read two chapters a day running up to the completion on Friday, December 23rd.
I received a very disappointing rejection of my manuscript last week after a promising potential for it to be supported by an evangelical publisher in the UK.
Even more distressing however was the publisher’s stated rationale (as well as lack thereof) for their decision: apathy.
I enjoyed watching this video last week and had no intention of producing any content based on it.
But then my ears pricked up in the last 20 minutes of the conversation when Piper/MacArthur are asked how the Church can be prepared for the forthcoming persecution at the hands of a despising world.
Over the course of the last few years, I’ve found myself repenting from my chronic unwillingness to share the gospel of Jesus Christ on a daily basis. Much of the scaffolding of life has surrounded my de-conditioned heart so as to insulate it from feeling the sting of my fundamental disobedience and fear of man.
For Christian leaders especially, (though certainly not exclusively), the liberal and indiscriminate sowing of eternal seed via the bold proclamation of the gospel can so easily be choked by the routine drudgery of ‘important’ things.
But, really, what is more important than making disciples — of holding out a lifebuoy for the floundering, breathing a breath of air for the drowning, attacking the wildfire for the burning, imparting a calming shalom for the grieving?
People are dying and going to hell
All Christians are called to glorify God above all things and, hence, we must all daily share the news that is indescribably good. People are dying and going to hell and often a few butterflies in the stomach are enough to paralyse us into silence, all the while traipsing along to have our ‘Sunday fill’.
No. God is tilling the soil of the landscape of the Church. He is disrupting every rotten root and nurturing every vital root that is truly in Him. Therefore, every Christian that is sensitive to His Spirit will also be experiencing this kind of tilling.
We must repent, we must yearn and we must daily tell.
Watch the brief video below and share to your networks if you’d be willing. Also, you can buy our sharp gospel resources here.
Human rights atrocity and socio-cultural narrative are not the same thing. But certain people – certain groups – want you to think that they are. Human rights atrocity should be dealt with and governments brought to justice but that doesn’t mean that conscientious objection to the traipsing of socio-cultural values and definitions for millennia equate to hate speech.
