Guidelines for Pray-ers
During a worship service, group meeting or a personal conversation someone brings to your attention a need for which they want prayer. Here are some things I would like you to know.
The Baptism in the Holy Spirit
A straightforward guide to the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, covering what it is, why it was given, how it relates to salvation, its signs, and its ongoing role in empowering believers for witness, ministry, and spiritual warfare.
Water Baptism
Scripture-based overview of water baptism—what it is, why it matters, who should be baptized, and how to prepare for this step of obedience and public declaration of faith
Leadership Development and Multiplication
A clear, practical framework for developing and multiplying leaders in the local church. Drawing from Scripture and real ministry experience, it outlines why teams matter, what qualities to look for in emerging leaders, and how to cultivate character, skill, and spiritual maturity. The framework provides tools for mentoring, apprenticeship, coaching conversations, and “just in time” training, helping leaders grow through real responsibility rather than theory alone.
One Verse Evangelism
A simple, conversational tool for explaining the gospel using just one verse—Romans 6:23.
Testimony Guidelines
A step-by-step guide to crafting and sharing a clear, meaningful, and Christ-honouring personal testimony. This resource helps believers understand how to tell their story in a way that connects with listeners, highlights God’s grace, avoids common pitfalls, and communicates the gospel through authentic experience.
New Life Church DNA
For churches looking to strengthen clarity, align their teams, or create an onboarding pathway for new people, this resource can serve as both a template and a conversation starter. It invites leaders to define what makes their church unique, articulate their culture, and design a discipleship pathway that reflects their convictions and mission.
If I Were Looking for a Church

Not Defining Success By Outcomes
Keep this principle in mind during the discouraging times in ministry. It’s important to remember because so often in ministry the desired outcomes are not under our control.
