Just when we thought we had reached peak stupid with the manner in which many right-leaning Christians in the US were viewing the Messiah, er, I mean the President, we find out that there is indeed another summit beyond the lofty clouds of a Democrat in the White House. Rep Emanuel Cleaver, an ordained minister […]
Okay, so last week I gave five reasons not to buy my book and the reverse psychology seems to have worked (evil genius that I am). So today I am going to pitch you five reasons why you should buy my book. If you don’t already know, it comes out Feb 1st and I am […]
So my book Being the Bad Guys: How to Live for Jesus in a World That Says You Shouldn’t officially comes out in a month – Feb 1st. And I can’t wait. Hey, maybe you can’t wait either. Not that you have to. From what I hear, anyone who pre-ordered it a month ago from […]
This week – this past Sunday in fact – we left our beloved Providence Church network after a decade of life and ministry in a church setting that morphed from three households and thirty six people, to three churches (one starting in a month) with five congregations and some 500 people.

Every year my run club hands out a perpetual trophy called The Black Toenail Award. It’s for the club’s best performer during the racing season, and throughout 2020 that trophy has sat proudly on my bookcase. Why black toenail you ask? Because as every runner knows, the constant pounding of your toes into the front […]
Life’s been busy. Our church has been searching for a new senior pastor so that process has taken up a lot of my time. I’m also in the throes of writing PR articles for the promotion of my book, Being The Bad Guys, which you can pre-order here if you are in Australia, here in […]
Ellen Page, the brilliant young star of Juno, The X-Men franchise, and lately the Netflix series, The Umbrella Academy, is now Elliot Page, having announced that she is trans. I say “she” advisedly, as Page has now offered the preferred pronouns of “they/he” to the world to use. Elliot Page has presented to the world, […]
I’ve been speaking for City Bible Forum’s Bible Shots in Sydney. Well I’ve been Zooming in as we can’t leave the state of Western Australia at the moment to go to NSW without being pinged with a two week quarantine on the way back. The series is called You Do You, and each week I […]
