MY MISSION
My mission in life is to passionately live to my potential in Jesus Christ and to equip, encourage, inspire and challenge everybody I meet to do the same. I love Jesus and people and in the face of my own huge faults & inadequacies, I want to cheerlead people on to reach their full potential in life.
MY LIFE
I was born and raised in Sydney, Australia and have lived in Minnesota, USA, since 2005. I worked in Chartered/Public Accounting for nearly 14 years and then moved in to Executive Leadership in various industries. I responded to a call on my life to leave the corporate world and pursue ministry in 2004. I have been married to Mandy since 1998 and have two children, Emma (b 2003) and George (b. 2007).
WHAT MOTIVATES ME ?
Here are five Bible verses that motivate and inspire me to do what I do, and I know they will inspire you too. I have emphasised the words that have always stood out to me.
“I have been crucified with Christ; it is NO LONGER I who live, BUT CHRIST lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself FOR ME.”
Galations 2:20
“Go therefore and MAKE DISCIPLES of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, TEACHING THEM to observe ALL things that I have commanded you;”
Matthew 28:19-20
“For I DETERMINED not to know anything among you EXCEPT JESUS CHRIST and Him crucified.”
Corinthians 2:2
“BE DILIGENT to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING the word of truth.”
2 Timothy 2:15
“I can do ALL THINGS through Christ who strengthens me.”
Philippians 4:13
