I am continually amazed at how God is working in His sovereign power to draw people to Himself.
The encounter I had last night was a CLASSIC example.
I had a meeting with someone at 6pm in a certain location. Without going into all the details, I got the meeting place completely wrong. I sent him a text and we agree to meet the next day in the right location.
I hadn’t given the gospel to anyone that day so I looked around. I wanted to make the most of the time I …

Recently I heard someone (Joe) say that to win the lost we must scratch where people itch.
For example, if people are lonely, offer friendship; if hungry, food; if hopeless, give hope; if sick, offer healing, etc.
The thought this person was conveying to me was that evangelism (i.e. proclaiming the gospel to someone) didn’t scratch where people itch because people were not looking for God or desiring Him.
He told me that the most effective way to win the lost was to discover their felt need and meet that need.
What should we …
Getting onto a flight in Auckland en route to Wellington, I was served by these two staff members at Jet Star.
It was so easy to turn the conversation onto spiritual things and hand them a biblein11.com card.
I said “How’s your day going?” as they processed our baggage and we chatted in reply.
Then I said “I am going to Wellington to work with a church. Have you guys had any church background?”
He said yes, she no.
“Let me ask you a question. What’s the best selling book in the world?”
They didn’t know.
I …
This morning around 7:30am I was buying some things at Countdown supermarket.
The guy in front of me at check out was asked by the teller if he had a ‘One Card’. If you have one of these loyalty cards, the supermarket gives a small discount on purchases.
He replied he didn’t have one.
I was listening to the conversation so I said ‘Do you want to use my one?’
His eyes lit up and jumped at the idea.
I saved him 70 cents. Whoopee!
He was happy. Smiling, he thanked me. I knew what I …

Recently, I was looking at an offshore church web site, and I read the following:
Our Vision
We believe we are called to
Reveal the glory of God’s Kingdom
This vision is based on a conviction that God’s purpose, in and through Jesus, is to restore His entire creation to its original glorious perfection, where His reign is universally accepted and acknowledged. The mission of His people is to demonstrate here and now what that looks like helping others see and experience and marvel at what God’s reign, God’s will being done on earth …
Hi everyone,
The following email arrived today. What’s the lesson here? If we plan to evangelise, we will.
If we don’t, we won’t.
Many people would have missed these opportunities, but Maryna “saw” them, even created them, because she had prepared her heart to create them before she left home.
This is the secret.
Heart preparation, and definite intention. Daily.
This is something Jesus modeled so beautifully. God bless you Maryna. You set out on your day like Jesus set out from Heaven. You are a shining example for us all my friend!
