The STRANGE Complexities of Church Leadership – part 1

Some say church leadership is hard, and there are endless blogs on the sorrows and pains of church leadership. While I sympathize in many ways, I also slightly disagree with this claim. I don’t really think Pastoral leadership is hard as such; it’s more that it is “complex” and “unusual” in ways that many don’t…

The Echoes of our Lives

Probably the greatest thing we must realise, if we grasp the importance of the era in which we live, is that we must “live a life worthy of the calling we have received” (Ephesians 4:1). You are incredibly important. Your decisions matter. Your church is important. You have been born “for such a time as…

6 Things Jesus NEVER said!

Never has the bible been more available to us all. But sometimes, as I read social media, I wonder if this bible, available in so many versions and formats, is actually being read in full at all! Some seem to base their world view on no more than Psalm 23, the first half of Ephesians,…

NEW! Prophetic Word – 2018

In prayer this morning (3rd May 2018), I felt this word from heaven. I sense God would say: There is a ripping open of the heavenly realms above the United Kingdom right now – bringing the Church into a new season in God. Encounters are increasing; the prophetic realm is being amplified, clarified, and magnified…

Prophetic Word: We are Entering a new Day of Glory

Last year Jarrod took 2 months out as a prayer sabbatical to spend time hearing God. That time seeking God’s face resulted in the following prophetic word, printed in his book “500 – are we entering a new era of glory?” The Church will be filled with glory. A weighty sense of presence that has…

Denominational Renewal in the 21st Century

Denominational renewal seems to be a point of great pain, stalling and infighting in the Christian world right now. I am saddened by the sight of good, godly men, who find themselves lost in the quagmire of organisational disagreement, having to waste valuable energy on difficult organisational renewal. This has led me to think about…

Glory about to hit the Arts! #Prophecy

For my book “500”, I felt God give me these words about the arts, worship ministry and broadcasting in the future, as we enter a new era of glory upon the Church: The Church will become known again as a womb of creativity – art, music, words, media – Christian artists will be recognised as…

Frustration – The devil or divine?

Sometimes we view frustrating set backs as the Devil, a failure of our devotion, skills, or even of heaven’s willingness to respond to our prayers. But in truth God has always frustrated the plans of man, marching only to the pace of His own divine purposes for us. Just look… God frustrated Adam and Eve…

When you truly see Grace for the first time!

A little girl was born with a cleft pallet. Her self-esteem was deeply affected by the disfigurement. But, as a young girl, though deeply insecure, she had a teacher who truly adored her. One day in class, the teacher ran an activity that was partly a hearing test, but also a fun game. Each pupil would stand in front…

Many Prophets are Prophesying a new Era!

Daniel 2: 21 states that God “changes times and seasons” while Acts 17:26 says God “determines pre-appointed times”. Amos 3:7 says “Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the prophets” As I’ve poured over prophetic words from around the world in recent times I have indeed found a recurring…

Another Amazing Wigglesworth Prophecy!

On their last meeting together Smith Wigglesworth and Lester Sumrall had this amazing prophetic conversation – it is mind blowingly accurate about today! Apostle Wigglesworth cried saying, “I probably won’t see you again now. My job is almost finished.” As he continued to pray, he cried “I see it, I see it!” Dr. Sumrall asked,…

Face your fears, or fear will shape you!

We all live with fear every day. “Socially acceptable” fears get talked about easily – the fear of heights, public speaking or spiders – it’s quite common to admit these. They are surface-level fears that usually only affect our lives in very small ways. But there are more foundational, deep seated, often subconscious fears that actually…

The Difference between Ministry & Leadership

I ended up in ministry because I love to minister. Personally, I feel right at home when I’m preaching, teaching, prophesying, singing, helping, ministering in God’s presence and in His Gifts. It’s my sweet spot! And most church leaders are the same. But one day I learned I needed to change. It was a few years…

So far, in our little observation of Shamgars life, we have learnt that we need to add Character, Competence and Coaches to our raw passion and gift. It’s not enough to rely on juvenile talent – we must progress and grow in God to fulfil a divine destiny. The final ingredient to a lasting legacy is… Connection…
