Our local newspaper ‘The Bugle’ has a nice little column on the back page of every fortnightly edition which provides residents with a way to share about a recent journey overseas.

I took the opportunity to share about our recent trip to Jerusalem, in which I speak of the significance of walking in the same place where God, himself, trod.

It was an amazing experience to have this geographical connection with the places I’ve read about all my life in the Bible, and it’s a joy to share this with the many people who live around the area of my church.

Song leading at GAFCON Jerusalem 2018

At Gafcon Jerusalem 2018, I was privileged to lead the music on the Friday sessions.

On that day, I taught an ‘Aussie’ version of the hymn, ‘How Great Thou Art’.

For those who asked, here are the lyrics to the new verse:

When through the bush and on the beach I wander,
and hear the birds sing loudly in the trees.
When I look out across the vast horizon,
behold the land that stretches sea to sea.

Special thanks to Graham Stanton for first crowd sourcing the songwriting via Facebook, and to all who contributed to bring the lyrics to their final canonical form.
