Blake is pastor. He was also involved in programs for 3ABN radio and TV. The church has a NEWSTART juice bar and a second-hand shop at the front. The rear is where church services are conducted every Saturday 10:30am followed with lunch.

Blake was born and raised in California as you will hear from his accent. What is he doing in Australia? As you hear Blake’s testimony you will marvel at how God plucked him out of a life of drug and alcohol addiction. A rebel at heart, Blake’s life was not a happy one despite parents who were dedicated and positive. You’ll be amazed at the story of his grandfather’s life of crime.

Miracles started popping into Blake’s life like an anonymous payment of fees to a Christian college, an invitation to hear Herb Larson preaching and a Christian concert where he almost responded to an altar call. How did he get the Bible he challenged God to get for him? This testimony is one that vividly portrays not only God’s creativity, but his genuine love for us all.
