Greetings everyone

Thank you for stopping by...

My name is Craig and I love the Lord Jesus Christ with all I am. I am the pastor of a local church in Springwood QLD Australia. I am passionate about the glory of God and expending my life in the proclamation of His most Majestic Saving Grace.

I have a question for you, DO YOU KNOW for absolute certain that if you died tonight you would go to heaven to be with God forever?

If you don NOT know this FOR SURE I am pleading with you to take a moment now and have a read the blog on this site called, THE CROSS.

If you answered YES to the above question then I want to ask you, how passionate are you in taking the saving message of the Gospel to those around you who otherwise have no hope. When was the last time you shared the saving truth of Jesus Christ with someone who if they were to die tonight would be lost forever in hell?

It should be a challenging thought to us all so please have a good think about it.

Ok, so here is a little more about me -

I am an ALL OR NIOTHING Christian and can not possibly conceive of any other variety.
My heart burns for MISSIONS and church planting, and I desperately want to see our Great God glorified in all things, especially the saving of many souls. Christ Jesus is my Lord, Saviour and my Sustainer and without Him I am nothing.

Our church (Hope Christian Church) is a growing group of believers who worship God I'm simplicity and feed of His word enthusiastically.

For more details on the church and its weekly services, please visit the website

While you are here also feel free to take a look around and have a listen to some of the sermon audio files available (I would recommend starting with the sermon entitled -What are your motives?- It is quite challenging.)

Please have a look at blog/news section that has updates on our church and our latest missions adventures, there are recent SOUTH EAST ASIA missions trip reviews that have been quite popular. I would recommend you have a read, you just might be inspired.

I truly pray God uses the material here to bless your life and bring you into a closer walk with HIM.

This site has been established In order that I might in some small way fulfil Hebrews 10:24 -And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works.-

If you have been blessed through any of the material on this website please take a moment to contact me through the following email address, I would love to hear from you-

Many Blessings all
