Where is the Kingdom?

A couple of weeks ago, Mairi and I travelled down to meet with a solid church in England to speak at their young people’s conference.

The night before I spoke, due to a very noisy hotel, I had virtually no sleep so please excuse the incomplete session in 2 Chronicles 15 that didn’t quite happen as I’d intended.

Nonetheless, I hope you’re encouraged to “take courage” and think a bit differently regarding the chaos of the wonderful Church, of which we are all a part.

I’ll also be dropping a massively important blog tomorrow regarding the pride and stupidity of the Church taking the government to court regarding church closures.

Autumn

Please sit back for a few seconds and enjoy a refreshing little glimpse of a Scottish autumn in film.

Into the Pray (feat. Andrea Williams)

Hello!

Do you love Jesus? Do you care about the disintegration of our societies, the fraying of Christian values that protect us all, but especially the most vulnerable among us such as children and the unborn?

United Kingdom, Repent

“Satan means to lure the Church onto the hook of a false dichotomy: choose blessing or repentance. Yahweh means to save the Church, with the kindness of both.”

Dolphins at St Abbs

Just what the Doctor ordered yesterday: took the car out – and the drone – with my Beloved and basically just drove.

Psalm 19 (feat. Dunnottar Castle)

Please enjoy a reading of Psalm 19 by my dear Dad, Anthony Franks.

Thank you for showing us the way to go, Dad.

A Statement Concerning Frontier Alliance International (FAI)

Several weeks ago, information was brought to our attention regarding a ministry many of us know and love and even support financially, Frontier Alliance International (FAI). They have produced several excellent films in recent years and have launched a new app that has become very popular; they are having a global impact and it is growing larger still. This information came to us serendipitously and it relates the account of a former FAI board member who had pioneered the medical unit that runs now in Iraqi Kurdistan.
