Come inside for a glimpse into the Books of Acts - a book of action, dynamism and vitality!Jesus' resurrection from the dead was the catalyst for the mission of the church, which began with the disciples and has continued throughout history. Indeed, the growth and spread of the church, is evidence of the historical fact of Jesus' physical resurrection, or rising from the dead. However, Jesus has now ascended back to God. What happened next? How did this small group of followers respond?

I was born in a small country town about 300 miles north east of Sydney in Australia. I was raised to be a sceptic cum agnostic cum atheist with the words "Churches are dangerous places" and this is like 30 years before Dawkins and his ilk uttered the words! So coming into my teenage years in the eighties, I decided if they are so dangerous let's go for a bit of danger! So I rebelled, became a Christian and started attending a local Christian youth group. After a bit, it was thought by my family that I was being brainwashed, so I was stopped from going for a couple of years, until I met somebody who I used to go to school with who invited me to her church, and I restarted from there... As to how I came to the UK! Well, I came here from Australia for 6 months travel around Europe! Or so I thought! That was in 1990! I view it as God having a sense of humour. He knows I don't like rain, cold and in particular - together! He has even given me the most beautiful of women as a wife but she doesn't like hot weather! God sure has a sense of humour! In 2003, instead of moving north with my job, I took redundancy and went off to Moorlands college where I graduated in 2007. I set up Partakers in 2007. I had recorded some audio files as part of a block placement during my 3rd year at Moorlands. 6 months later I looked back on the site and discovered that the 16 audio files had been downloaded several thousand times, mainly in a country where evangelical Christians are persecuted. I took the normal route post-bible college and applied for pastoral jobs around the UK. I often was interviewed but the 2 main reasons given for not being successful was that I was too radical, too much of a teacher or both! It was like when the printing press came out and the church said "You cant give the bible to people, they may actually read it!" So, I continued doing the Podcasts etc. The Partakers Podcasting site has had about 1,500,000 unique visitors so far and about 4,000,000 downloads. As for the name Partakers itself, I got the idea straight from Matthew 5:6, which I paraphrase it "Blessed are those who partake after righteousness for they will be filled." I have an accountability team set up by the church we attend, for mentoring, prayer, guidance, advice and accountability. I currently reside in Bournemouth, travel frequently to speak in about places including the USA and Australia.
