This past week has been an intense review for me: an innocent conversation with a minister led me to question/ examine all that has happened since God called me to step back from the organised church & to pursue His new way. As I have expressed before, I don't necessarily believe that everyone is called... Continue Reading →

Three times in this past week I have had very similar conversations with different people. I am really enjoying this season of focus on relational connection. There has been a clear call to turn away from building organisation and toward building people through relationship. It might be slower than holding meetings and speaking from the...

I debated whether or not to share this today, as I felt it was clumsily expressed, and I didn't want to risk being discouraging. But I tried to take the more difficult parts out, and immediately felt corrected to put them back in. I believe there is God in it, so it is important to... Continue Reading →

Yesterday I had the blessing of time spent (on Zoom) with a friend who carries a grace for intercession and the prophetic. We encouraged each other in what we felt the Holy Spirit was saying, and then had some time praying together (not enough time - but it never is!) As we prayed I saw... Continue Reading →

Just before I woke this morning I had a dream that left me rattled until I wrote it down and asked God to talk me through it... In my dream I was leading a church that met in an old traditional church building with pews & all, that I knew from my childhood. The people... Continue Reading →

Yesterday I shared how the main key to finding God's New, that is probably most important of all the hints or other keys I have received, is that we're not just journeying TO the New; the journey IS the New. It's the process that happens when we have turned our backs on the old and... Continue Reading →

Recently I shared an encouragement from God for the Pioneers to "keep swimming". It received quite a lot of feedback in the various places it was posted and shared - including someone sending a clip of Disney-Pixar's Dory singing "just keep swimming" which made me smile!One person asked a question that I felt was really...

Just a short one today, as a kind of personal postscript to 'Not Ministries, but Ministers"... It's no secret that I am not a trained theologian. I even include that fact at the bottom of my blog in case anyone might be tempted to think I was pretending to be something I'm not - which... Continue Reading →

I'm not keen on telling people what they shouldn't be doing. For a start, it's a negative kind of approach, and I always prefer to be focused forward onto the good that is ahead of us - far more hopeful! Also, it's a kind of self-fulfilling downfall (try driving by looking solely in the rear-view... Continue Reading →

Two days ago I referred to a couple of specific instructions that God gave me about his re-setting, but only shared one. I will be sharing the second one soon, but today I wanted to share something that God spoke to me for those who are pioneering and breaking new ground in this season... It... Continue Reading →
