Hey there! Thanks for walking with us through this journey together. We're excited to see the increasing opportunities that God is opening up for us to see His Story have a greater impact on more and more lives.Completed 'SEASON' for the Men at Teen Challenge!!!![]()
Since our last update we completed 'SEASON' with the residents at Teen Challenge's New Life Men's Centre.
Here are some responses we received:
We received encouraging feedback from staff as well, and are hopeful for more opportunities like this in future.
Pray that God continues to work in the lives of these men and opens further opportunities in future. |
Interviewed on 92.9 Voice FM
A few weeks ago I was having a chat with Ivan Green, General Manager of 92.9 Voice FM (the Christian radio station in Toowoomba). He asked how the ministry is going and I asked him about advertising Verge in their Community Service Announcements. He was very happy with that and said that I should also come into the station so they could interview me.
So on the 9 August, I had the privilege of being interviewed by well-known radio host, Ruby Slipperz, to talk about AccessTheStory and Verge. At the end of the interview, Ruby invited me back after Verge to talk about how it went. The interview aired on 11 August. God is good. |
Multi-Region Prayer Muster in Gatton
Annie Cathcart invited me to share about ATS and Verge at the latest "Multi-Region Prayer Muster" held at Gatton Church of Christ on 12 August.
They had around 30 people from various churches and regions gathered for prayer, and pastors and other ministry leaders from 6 different regions were given time to share their prayer needs. The regions were Somerset, Scenic Rim, Ipswich, Lockyer Valley, Warwick and Toowoomba.
Someone would speak and then we'd all break into small groups and pray for them. This ran from 10am til 3pm with a break for lunch.
A common theme shared by pastors on the day was the lack of young people in churches. Yep, it's a problem all over.
As the final speaker of the day, I shared about AccessTheStory. This was eagerly received and I suspect this could be the start of some amazing connections.

“Most Australians aren’t engaged by the Bible, so we have developed a suite of tools that help Christian communities access the Story of God in a way that brings clarity to who Jesus is and what it means to join Him in His Mission.”
The longer we're in this the more we see how desperately this ministry is needed.
We’re grateful that you’re continuing to partner with us and we want to say a big “THANK YOU” to each of you. We couldn't do this without you!
God has always shown Himself faithful to us and we're thankful and excited to see the increasing opportunities that He is opening up for us to see His Story have a greater impact on more and more lives.
If you haven't already done so, we invite you to prayerfully consider partnering with us financially (either through a special donation or regular support). If you would like to partner with us in this way then please complete and return this Partnership form. Your partnership will not only allow Mike to use his time to focus on the work with ATS, but will be an investment in seeing more lives access God's Story and be transformed through the Good News of Jesus, the Messiah.
