seeing in a mirror dimly

Well we’ve hit #4 of the Pilgrim’s Podcast! Very grateful for all your listening, and thoughts and props!

This episode was a world first for Steve and me! We had the first ever woman join the Pilgrim’s Podcast (and many more to come!).  Ruth Lee came and shared all about the RICE movement: Revolution, Events, Regenerate, and upcoming conferences!  She’s awesome – and a great pilgrim who loves Jesus! We also heard all about the great work with the EQUIP women’s conferences – in fact, we signed up to get a Pilgrim’s Podcast team down there next year!

We also: had an awesome start to the podcast, launched our SMBC lovespot, gave shnouncements, talked about how to balance our work and play for Jesus, and Ruthy identified with an amazing movie! Get into it!

Can I put a serious plug in here for the RICE movement.  Sam Mak, Steve Chong, Ruthy and others are wonderful servants of our Lord and He is blessing this ministry in great ways.  If you haven’t (or your church hasn’t) yet gotten involved, do it! Hit up the site above and get in touch – great things are happening now, and there are great plans for the future too!

After another encouraging night at a RICE gathering, I’m convinced that this is a truly wonderful ministry!

Two weeks ago was the RICE Vision night held at MTC.  They packed the house! Steve Chong opened, Sam Mak delivered, John Woodhouse endorsed, and a whole host of other people chimed in with introductions to the many different facets of the RICE ministry (Marriage Counselling, Conferences on Desires and Giftings, Theological training etc!).

And tonight a gathering of nearly 60 leaders of differing youth groups arrived to join together in thinking through how to reach the youth of Sydney with the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I’m very keen to see our youth from St. Anne’s, Strathfield joining in this Gospel work with the hope of seeing many from the local area coming to a saving relationship with our Lord.  And I’m praying that our Sovereign and Almighty Father might send His Spirit powerfully in order to do this!
