Geoff Bullock

I am sitting in my lounge room just reflecting on the past 24 hours or so...it's Sunday arvo and I am getting ready soon for our night service at Salvos 3064 church... This morning and yesterday we sat through a beautiful time of ministry with Geoff.

Wonderful.

Insightful.

Affirming.

Blessed.

I loved his stories, and honesty, and how he seemed relaxed amongst us. Which caused me to relax.

As he sang The Power of Your Love, I felt something wash over me...through me, around me...
It caused me to be unable to sing...as tears welled in my eyes.

For those present...the insight about Barabbas... Amazing.

And then of course the pooey nappy analogy, where God as our father holds us, embraces us,hugs us, even though we, as babies, smell to high heavens... Grace.

Thank you Geoff for coming to us, to bless us and minister to us..I am hoping Craigieburn will never be the same again....(sorry to pinch the line).

By the way, the personal chats in the car to and from the airport were
very special to me, thank you.

What got us here, will not get us there.

I have been thinking about the this for sometime now. We as TSA have come along way, but yet...there is a long way yet to go, and everything we have done up until now, has given us the results we now have. It's insanity to think, that if we keep doing the things we have already done, that we will get a different result. All that we have done so far, in previous weeks, months and years and even decades have given us the results we are seeing right now. If we think for one moment that things are going to change, by doing the things the same way as we have already done them, then there may be a need for seeing a therapist. do things the same way, get the same result. change the way you do things, get a different result. the problem with this, is ..... that many think everything is honky dory....all "A OK".... and that's where the real bottle neck actually is. Because the truth is, (and many don't want to acknowledge the truth), that we are not winnin...

Salvo style.... God is here.

For me these days, life is super busy. I used to think I was busy before, but now...my goodness. Now, so that it's clear, I am happy being busy with the Kingdom stuff, and would never cope if I was blatantly bored in ministry, I am simply not wired in such a way. Life is good. My ministry is good. My God is good. For those of my readers who think, that maybe, I think I have arrived..... wash your mouths out...there is no way I think that, last week my head was in such a spin, I literally had to walk out the office and go home. I went for a walk to clear my head and got drenched when it started raining, and it was really good for me... I gained perspective and focus and the next day in the office was a little more sober. It's a busy place and much is going on.... it does pose questions for me, which over time I will seek clarity from the senior leaders here....and I guess where needed, I will tweak where and when I can. in the meantime, I am just doing what I feel...

Psychics

Went onto a Facebook thread this week that involved people seeking a psychic for whatever reason. I understand that the world is seeking answers,  and I have the answer but the answer I have people don't want to seek. VERY  FRUSTRATING . now as bad as it all is, what makes it worse, WAY WORSE...is that some of the people in our church were on there making appointments.   Now, before you throw your hands up in the air and ask what kind of church this actually is... we run a new church here at Craigieburn and it has loads of new baby Christians, and many also, who are just here checking things out...not committed to Christ yet, that's part of the journey of planting a Church..... so it is expected that there will always be people who are on various stages of growth. If you are reading this..and you have been doing this psychic thing... you don't need to do it, you need to seek Jesus and His Holy Spirit, it will be better than anything and everything else yo...
