Dreams, Disappointments & Destiny

This to me is one of the greatest stories in the Old Testament. It underscores the most treasured gift we could ever receive from another human being. It is also the most expensive gift anyone could offer to another human being. Nobody on God’s earth could ever deserve such a gift. It’s a game changer for both the giver and the receiver and this story paints this truth so wonderfully. When Joseph gave this gift to his estranged brothers, it brought healing to a broken family. It also highlights the greatest gift ever given, spoken by one that was yet to come while unjustly crucified...

FORGIVE THEM!

Are you a Jerk?

How would you feel if your sibling robbed the family inheritance and then ran away with it all. What would you think about someone who married you and then said, whoops I really wanted to marry your sibling. You probably would think what a jerk, he deserves all he gets. Jacob is that jerk and he didn’t do family well at all. However, for all his messed up mistakes God showed Jacob Mercy... God renamed him with a name that became a nation which exists to this day. Yep! there is great hope for all jerks, but it will require going toe to toe with Jesus and that could hurt.

Trouble and Blessing

Life was difficult for Isaac, but then again life is difficult for everyone. Isaac is living in a land that’s not his home. He’s still living in a tent and camping. Now a drought ravages the land and his stocks and herds are in trouble. He moves to a greener neighbourhood, but after some time the king of that place becomes Jealous of Isaac and deports him. Isaac leaves and digs a well down the road but the locals take the well from him in a huge brawl. Isaac moves on and digs another well but encounters the same issue. Isaac seems to take all these challenges in his stride without melt downs, moaning or complaining. Quite extraordinary however Isaac had help from a source nobody could see Watch episode six now…

A Faithful Friend

What's the big deal about Abraham!
Not much actually, pretty ordinary bloke, made a lot of mistakes and lived in a tent mostly. SO ..whats the big deal? The big deal is God made a promise to him and Sarah, and against all odds they never stopped believing. The DNA of every God follower is defined as a life of believing. Believing… Is living like you already have the thing God’s words promised you. Which is the opposite to seeing is believing (doing nothing till something is proven). It is impossible to please God without this modus operandi called "faith".

Communication Break Down

Watch episode four about true greatness! I'm sure someone on the mega tower said at one time, "lets make humanity great again". However God intervenes with an epic communication breakdown. It's frustrating being misunderstood. I say one thing and you hear another. Misunderstandings can destroy friends, families and neighbourhoods’ setting entire nations at war. I also often misunderstand what God is saying to me as i busily work on the construction of my life. So he will intervene in my circumstances to keep me living out his great plan's for the future which are eternal. And rescue me from my own contrived great plans of fame and fortune which are only temporal. I pray God will intervene in your life so you will discover his eternal plan for your life.

Starting Over

Have you ever regretted doing something? I know thats a stupid question. But has God ever regretted doing something...YES!
God was grieved over making people created in his own image. We were meant to fill the earth with God's glory but instead we filled it with violence. Sin (selfish indulging nature) had became the new norm. However, nothing has really changed, we are at it again... God have mercy. Watch episode three, "Starting Over"

Lost and Broken

My parents never sat me down and taught me to be naughty. That came naturally & consistently without any coaching. I'm amazed at the skill level my brother & I operated at, it's like we were born for this. One day while playing the forbidden game of cricket in the house, while mum was out, her treasured china vase got in the way of a big hit. We quickly disposed of the evidence (well not all the evidence, namely the ball) and then we hid in our room. When mums footstep entered the house, within moments she yelled, "you two boys get here right now". There was only one thing left to do, blame my brother and swear it wasn't my fault.
Watch episode two and find this story in it's original form. Then look inside of you and in all directions around you and see it on repeat…

Made for Love

I named the first episode of my animated series 'Made For Love', because it sets the agenda for the whole 'Series'. I have asked the question, ‘what’s the meaning of my life’ and I hope by watching this series you will come to a satisfying conclusion. When I look across the planet I’m living on for a short while, (not having any say in my arrival or departure) I don’t feel like I'm in control of much, and wonder what it's all about. Could this first chapter of the Bible be setting the agenda for discovering a relational Creator and the purpose of life. I would love you to watch the 'Encounter Series' young or old, and I hope you discover there is a Creator who wants to walk with you during your short stay on this crazy planet.

Jesus Calling

IMG_4398.JPG

Jesus calls children,

I spent four years scripting, creating and filming a stop motion animated film for children. In the end we produced 45 x 5min episodes that unpack the story of God's love through the Bible. I chose to tell this story because I had a spiritual encounter at the age of seven that defined the person I would become. I was in a large room with 100 other kids hearing a story about Jesus dying for our sins.  I was suddenly aware of a presence around me, and I knew this was Jesus. Without any words being spoken I knew what Jesus was saying; he was asking me to follow him! I didn't understand everything in my mind, but I believed in my heart and followed him. I am convinced that Jesus calls children to follow him, It happened to me!

My prayer is that when children watch ‘Encounter Series’, they would have an encounter with Jesus that would change them forever…..

My prayer for Global Kids Ministry

Gkmlogo.jpg

Two thousand years ago a small group of believers were gathered together in a room waiting for something from heaven. That something was a someone, and that someone was the Holy Spirit. What happened that day could not be contained in the room. What happened that day ignited one hundred and twenty Jesus flares. What happened that day turned the small group into thousands of believers. My prayer for the ministry of “iblaze” is to continue what that fire started…Igniting faith in the hearts of the young and old
