2011 - New Year, New Ideas

Hey All,

So its been a while since my last blog post;  I thought it'd be a great time to give you all an update on where things are at.

I am still living in Sydney with 2 main components in my life: Church and Work. I have continued to serve in Hillsong Church and truly have become a part of a massive body of believers.  I have become and integrated part of the Creative team at the City Campus, honoured to look after the keys players that help carry our services week in and week out. There has been opportunity to contribute to the creative process in our church songs as well which has been amazing;  I only expect things to grow.

Connected with Church, I have become of a great family of friends call "BOOM" :).  They are my connect group and I love them dearly. We have gone through some great times together and know we have each other's backs in any situation.  OUr bound was formed over a love for God through worship, prayer, and community.  I am a group "elder" and look after our worship.  Here is a small selection of them:

As mentioned, the other main part of my life has been work. God has provided amazing opportunity in the Apple world working for an Apple Premium Reseller called My Mac (http://www.mymac.com.au/). I have had the privilege to be a part of a great team and have risen to the responsibility of Business Solutions Manager; I work with small/medium businesses accommodating their Mac IT needs, especially in areas of servers, Point of Sale, CRM, etc. This season in my life is adding a lot of depth to my understanding of how business and people work.  My leadership and people skills learned at college have actually been a great contributor to my role.  The job has even taken me travelling, with trips to Chicago, New York, Montreal, and Toronto all in 2010.  Here is a photo from one of the conferences I went to:

Finally, my music.  I have been doing more collaboration lately working with various people to help them record/write/produce and also been a part of some co-writing with friends.  I haven't put up much for quite a while but I feel 2011 will be a bit different... :).

Thanks for listening to the rambles :)

One More Breath

"One More Breath" has been my statement of conviction over the last few weeks. It kind of sums up a few different thoughts so I'll break it down a bit.

God has been dealing with me a lot lately about investing in people, taking the moments of life to build relationship with others and share the love of Christ with them; not in just face value, but REAL relationship. The time you share in a "meet and greet" is not the same as when you sit and eat. Time invested in a person's life instantly places value on them, building more than just an aquaintence, but rather a friend; that is real relationship.

In the lead up to Encounter (our youth ministry's conference-like event) I have been inspired to take these few practical steps that will hopefully continue through and beyond this amazing time with our God and each other... Here they are:

1. Know >> get to know people you wouldn't normally. The shy person at work, the lonely person who hangs at the back of a church service, the volunteer stacking chairs...

2. Love >> once you know about them, care! the person stacking chairs has as many events/hurts/fears/ etc in their world as you do. Show genuine interest and intiative to help them and do life with them.

3. Believe >> this is the final and most import step as it takes someone from where they are to where they hope to be. Getting along side of someone, believing in them, empowering them to take their next step in life...

I remember times in my own life when people have believed in me and helped me progress in life... It's the best feeling ever!! Taking just that extra fee seconds can really change someone's word.

In all I've said, remember this:

In the moments of life, stop and see, who is around you, to engage and believe in; through "one more breath" they'll never be the same again.

Much Love//
