• Education: 3 years secondary - couldn’t wait to leave school - am a crazy keen sportsman so wanted to play sport all the time.
• Experience: Only been Pastoring 2 years - but the Lord has used all my experience to minister life and hope to the lost and hurting. Jerry Cooks book - Love, Acceptance and foregiveness and Matthew 25 : 31 to the end of chapter is our call.
• Comment to those looking at my sermons: As I said I’m a work in progress. I’m having trouble writing a lot of this stuff down as I tend to preach not word for word but with an outline and led by the Holy Spirit.
• Sermon or series that made a difference: Love Chuck Swindoll’s preaching - he has been a huge influence on my life as well a Derek Prince
• Family: I am married to a wonderful woman of God Angela and we have 5 children and 6 grandchildren with one more on the way - due November 05.

• What my parents think of my sermons: Both parents dead.
• What my spouse (really) thinks of my sermons: She like the good ones and tells me straight about the bad ones. I do preach bad ones - I’m a work in progress - praise God.
• Best advice given to me about preaching: Be real and preach from the heart
