  • For Enquirers

    When I was searching to step over into a walk with God, I needed someone to help me negotiate the step.  This step was a big one!  God provided just the person for me.  I believe God can provide someone like that for you, and I encourage you to look for that person, and take in my teaching with that person.  Do it together.

  • My Story – Introduction into the Series

    My experience in 1972 when I stepped out of being a mere church-goer, and began to walk with God in the power of the Holy Spirit.  I had to have some help with this.  A lady who was already walking with God explained how to do it, and helped me with my doubts and questions.  As soon as I wanted to move beyond just being a church-goer, I needed help.  Once I learned how to do it, I was able to help others, too.  This series of teachings, “How Shall We then Live,” is designed to help others make the transition into actually connecting and walking with God, regardless of whether they are church members.

  • The Hope of Rome
    The ancient Hebrew prophecies spoke of a new kingdom that God would instigate during the fourth great world empire of the ancient world: the Roman Empire. The great promise of that empire was this: that they would civilize the surrounding “barbarian” nations by conquering them. Caesar began the process of “civilization” by conquering the Celts […]

  • The Triumph of Rome
    For fifty years, there were two contrasting Christian churches in Britain: a “power and might” church and a “by my Spirit” church, growing side-by-side. This unstable situation was resolved at the Synod of Whitby in 644 A.D., in which the Roman Church edged out the Celts, who began the slow and painful process of disappearing. […]

  • Reintroducing Rome
    Just as Aidan (from Iona) established the outreach to Anglo-Saxons at Lindisfarne, Rome came back into the picture in 597 A.D.  It’s first archbishop, a Benedictine monk named Augustine, set up shop at Canterbury, and challenged the Celts to accept his authority.  Lacking the one quality (humility) that would have won their allegiance, the Celtic […]

  • Columba and Kentigern
    After establishing 30 houses of prayer in Ireland, and after making a pilgrimage to honor Martin at Tours, the hot-headed Columba created some serious problems in Ireland—and was banished from his homeland in the middle of the sixth century. Founding the prayer community at Iona, Columba succeeded in bringing the Picts and Scots of Scotland […]

  • Patrick and the Irish
    As a teenager, Patrick was whisked away from his home in Dumbarton, Scotland, to be a slave in Ireland. This improbable beginning set him on a journey of prayer, which God would build into one of the greatest examples of Kingdom transformation the world has ever seen—as described by Patrick himself in his Confession. What […]

  • Evagrius, Cassian and Germanus
    Evagrius of Pontus, experiencing the temptations of wealth and power in the Byzantine Church, fled to the deserts of Egypt, where he became the leader of the spiritual descendants of Anthony at Nitria. Two men—Cassian and Germanus—attached themselves to him, then carried the teaching of the Desert Fathers into Gaul, and finally into Britain, adding […]

  • The Early Celts
    The Desert Fathers, beginning with Anthony, continued to live by the original “by my Spirit” pattern Jesus modelled out for them. Martin of Tours picked that up from the biography of Anthony by Athanasius, and passed it along to Ninian, who planted it in Scotland in 397 A.D. Scotland became a matchstick of spiritual awakening […]

  • Power and Might
    When Constantine moved to make Christianity the official “religion” of Rome, Pope Sylvester I assumed that he was to form an alliance with the Roman emperor. In this way—beginning in 313 A.D.—Christianity stopped being a “by my Spirit” kingdom, and began to function as a “power and might” religion. My teaching shows seven ways that […]
