My Favourite Lyric

April 2024

Recently I was chatting with Kyra about "what is my favourite lyric I've written yet?" It surprised me how quickly I could answer that question...

I Give Up

March 2024

This month we're chatting about a new song called Giving Up.

Wide Open Spaces

February 2024

This month I'm starting something a bit new for Torch Talks…

What if God is where you are?

January 2024

This month's Torch Talk was really special. I had a plan, but as I was sharing and praying for you it's like the Holy Spirit just took us in a different direction.

Seeing the Unseen

December 2023

This month I've got a verrrry special guest for our Torch Talk, and I can definitely say I wouldn't be here without her…

For this month's Torch Talk, I want to ask you…what would you do if you knew you couldn't fail? This Torch Talk was inspired by a message from a speaker named Ryan Leak. He decided to get audacious and do something he knew he'd fail in - tryout for an NBA team. But in doing so, he found that he actually made it much further by chasing failure than he ever did by chasing success.

Building Heaven on Earth

October 2023

What do you immediately think if I said "God wants to bless you"? Often I would feel a bit selfish thinking about that. I know it's true that God wants to bless me, but I want to focus on being a blessing to those around me. But what if I said it's actually HIGHLY SELFISH TO NOT ASK GOD TO BLESS YOU.

God’s Already Built the Roots

September 2023

We're called to bring heaven to earth, but it's not ALL on us. We're partnering with the Holy Spirit, Who is already building the roots and working in peoples' hearts.

Who are YOUR People

August 2023

This month we're continuing our Heaven on Earth series, discussing how we, as Torch Bearers can take Heaven into the world around us.

Heaven Doesn’t Tippy-Toe Into Earth

July 2023

This month we're continuing our Heaven on Earth series, discussing how we, as Torch Bearers can take Heaven into the world around us. When Jesus began His ministry, He boldly declared that He was anointed by the Holy Spirit to bring FREEDOM to the captives, SIGHT to the blind and to proclaim FAVOUR for everyone! Heaven didn't tippy-toe quietly into peoples' worlds with a quiet whisper of encouragement…Heaven stepped in and, for all those with open hearts, their LIVES WERE TURNED UPSIDE DOWN.

Don’t Be Salty

April 2023

Sometimes we can be disheartened by not feeling like we don't have much impact. But God is completely unconcerned by how tiny a "trickle" we feel like our influence is - all He asks is for us to let His love and life flow through us… and then see what a mighty torrent He can make it!

One Person at a Time – Bill + Ginger’s Story

March 2023

Years ago, Bill + Ginger started sharing Jesus with people around them, one person at a time. Now they lead a team who has literally seen hundreds of thousands of people accept Jesus through this very same method!

Partnering With God

February 2023

In Isaiah 62, God challenges us to be "watchmen" - partnering passionately and persistently with Him to see our lives become burning torches that change the world around us!

What’s It Mean To Be A Flaming Torch?

January 2023

The name Torch Bearers comes from Isaiah 62, where God talks about making us flaming torches whose lives are so radically restored that we shine like torches in a dark world!

How You Can Shine Light This Christmas

December 2022

For our December Torch Talk I invited Mrs Christmas herself (aka my wife Kyra) to join me...and we had a LOT OF FUN chatting about some fun, creative ways we can shine light to our family and friends this Christmas.

“I Wanna Be A Reflector”

November 2022

I have these great memories of driving home from youth group, packed in a car full of sweaty, hormone-ravaged, teenage guys, with windows rolled down and stereo cranked so loud the doors shook while we shouted at the top of our lungs... And these memories have inspired this month's Torch Talk!

What’s In Your Shadow?

October 2022

There's an amazing story in the Bible of people being healed just from Peter's shadow passing by them. As Torch Bearers, how can we carry God's light into our world with the same power?

SPLANCHNIZOMAI

September 2022

Splanchnizomai - it's not a word you use every day (well at least I assume it's not), but it's a word that's central to our mission. And if we let God work it in our hearts, it can totally change how we relate to those around us!
