God is no less gracious when He disciplines us in fury than when He sings over us in love. Does an earthly parent whisper, coo, mollycoddle and provide extra pocket-money when their child is brazenly rebellious? Are they any less loving when they don’t? Would they be genuinely loving if they did?

Why Did I Resign? Mairi Speaks Out
In the period of 2 weeks following publishing, several major things happened all at once that could have happened at any point in the previous 9 years. The disruption of the Lord culminated in Mairi resigning from her role as a Teacher of French in a large secondary school in Edinburgh and was a disruption that I wrote about prophetically in the book’s epilogue. This podcast is now Mairi’s testimony and, as the final podcast in our home where the podcast began, please let me encourage you to listen with a prayerful heart. Perhaps you’d also share the episode to your networks.

His Bride Prepared (film)
Three years ago a church pastor in England contacted me having read Body Zero because he recognised that he needed to make some serious changes in his church reflecting the most neglected part of the gospel — namely that CHRIST IS COMING (Revelation 19:7).

Paul ended up hiring me to make a film as part of a raft of other resources for their church website. This is that film.
The 1% Church (Stop & Think)
Asaph’s twelve remarkable songs (50, 73-83) are punctuated with repeated moments in which the only appropriate response was to stop and think (selah). Please watch this video below and take a moment to share to your networks for me. Thank you.
What happened to the Church in 2020?
“We see from history how the Lord again and again has had to smite with smashing blows things which in themselves were good, in order to save His people unto Himself personally.” — T.A-Sparks
It’s a tender picture: a fine Christian lady in her ninth decade struggling to grasp the need of God to “smite” His Bride. But I hope this video helps address what is now more than a 3-year chasm in the Body of Christ.
The 1% Church
I was speaking at a church near Liverpool last week and was in conversation with a 90 year-old lady who struggled to understand that it was the Lord Who closed the churches in 2020. This is completely understandable but hopefully this video will help.
