Newfrontiers

I really enjoy watching Brian Mowrey’s video interviews. This one with “Bones” is no exception. Watch and enjoy! This reminded me of when I interviewed Mbonisi myself.

Pete Brooks leads the Pacific Rim team of Newfrontiers and Grace City Church in Sydney. He speaks in this video about the challenges and rewards of planting on the opposite side of the world, even though Australia was where he was born and raised. Pete was a great person to interview and I am sure that this story will thrill you, inspire you, and make you ask the important question before you rush into a church plant: am I SURE that this is what God wants me to do? Pete also talks about an exciting change of venue they have coming up, and a long visit by Terry and Wendy Virgo to Australia later this year.

TOAM10 – We have the mind of Newfrontiers or “Brussels, anyone?”

July 20, 2010

One of the minor little things that stuck with me at TOAM was a phrase that appeared at the end of each of the video clips they showed on our values. “Who is Newfrontiers? You are.” The truth is that Newfrontiers has always been more decentralized than many movements, and at the same time [...]

President Zuma of South Africa at Godfirst Church

June 19, 2010

City churches can make an impact on society. Especially if they grow big and make some noise. Godfirst Church, led by my friend PJ Smyth, is certainly doing that. I am not particularly surprised that they have made such an impression that the president himself wants to come and check it out! The church is [...]

A reformed charismatic in 1984

April 8, 2010

A very dapper looking Terry Virgo shows that as a young charismatic he was very much already reformed. This idea that reformed charismatics are a “new breed” is shown to be wrong by this video from Downs Bible Week alone. Now if only someone could find me some video of my dear departed friend and [...]
