Beautiful story Mike – gives hope to all of us lousy evangelists who wonder if we are actually making a difference. The spirit does his thing both because and in spite of us.

Fantastic story! Thanks for sharing. Great things happen when we get out of the way of the Spirit of God.

And did you know that you were also instrumental in my coming to know Jesus? You let me sing worship with a group of lovely Christian teenage girls as you travelled from church to church in the early 90’s. I was extremely sceptical about all things Christian but I loved to sing so could put up with all the God stuff! You preached on the woman at the well and just like that, I suddenly realised that Jesus might really love me. I’ve never lost that revelation and He has stuck my life together more times than I can count since. You were the first person I’d heard preach in church who sounded like they might actually know God.

I love this! Sometimes we get so wrapped up in our theology – our “church-y” way of doing stuff – that we don’t let go and let God do His stuff in the way He wants to work – even if it disrupts the norm.

I think sometimes we forget that the heart of the Gospel is relational – somewhat more than it is theological.

I really needed to read this today. Thank you Mike for taking the risk to minister beyond the walls of the church building in the first place and then staying the course to be around to tell these stories.
We do need to be reminded that God is in the long game.
