Kidshaper Australia 2010

nealch85 — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 03:36:09 +0000

Kidshaper is a children’s ministry conference that will inspire you to go higher, live fuller and reach the kids of the world. Each conference is packed with powerful praise and worship, the presence of God and great training and input. There are inspirational keynotes that share revelation through the Word of God, practical elective sessions where you can ask questions and tap the brain of ministry leaders and loads of connect times so you can make new partnerships and build on old ones. There are also ministry times so you receive the blend of inspiration, information and impartation.

This year’s theme is TASTE, and we will be focusing on how you and your children can taste and see that the Lord is good. In other words, experience God. The new song and book will be released in August so look out for that, plus we are very excited about a few surprises that we have been working on. Twenty 10 sees Kidshaper expand from two countries to four! So now are we are in Australia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand and Hong Kong!

The Australian Kidshaper 2010 Taste Conference is being held at Bridge Church in Richmond, Melbourne on the 25th to the 27th of August. For updates, make sure you follow the Kidshaper Conference on Twitter – @kidshaperconf and we look forward to seeing you there!

Veggie Tales

nealch85 — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 05:41:37 +0000

I has been quite a while since I posted my last blog! Things have been crazy busy this year!

New Church Building
Lots of new leaders
Lots of new kids
New responcibilities etc.

It have been a great year so far and I’m excited about what God has in store for Riviera Christian Centre for the weeks and months to come!

Just one funny thing I had to share from the weekend.

One of our early childhood kids, while watching a veggie tales DVD asked me this…

“Chris… Why does the Cucumber have eyes…??” (with a concerned look on his face)

HAHAHA. This was a classic! I explained to him that it was all good and he was fine.

But just had to blog it!

The Little Chap That Follows Me.

The Little Chap Who Follows Me!

Author: Unknown

A careful man I want to be;
A little fellow follows me.
I do not dare to go astray
For fear he’ll go the self same way.

I cannot once escape his eyes,
Whate’er he sees me do, he tries.
Like me he says he’s going to be;
The little chap who follows me.

He thinks that I’m so very fine,
Believes in every word of mine.
The base in me he must not see;
The little chap who follows me.

I must remember as I go
Through summer’s sun and winter’s snow,
I’m building for the years to be;
The little chap who follows me.

Hillsong Conference 2009

nealch85 — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 08:12:03 +0000

I just recently returned for the Hillsong Conference in Sydney, Australia.

I am still trying to chew on everything that God had spoken to me through those who spoke and the things He had spoken directly to my heart.

But if I had to use one word in all to describe the week… AMAZING!

God is a amazingly faithful to us, from the days where we didn’t know him or chose to be ignorant of the fact that he wanted a relationship with us, to times when just just plain and simply stuff up… He is FAITHFUL!

“He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is He.” -Deuteronomy 32:4

Leadership: Influence

nealch85 — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 01:23:53 +0000

I’ve just started reading a book called Developing the leader within you by John C. Maxwell.

already only three chapters in and I have found so many pearls of wisdom, so I thought that I’d share…

Everybody Influences Somebody:

even the most introverted person will influence TEN THOUSAND other people in their lifetime.

I’ve always been quite skeptical of statistics but I do take the basic point into consideration, but this statistic is obviously very different for each person. But the idea that no matter who you are or no matter how introverted you think you are, the fact is that everyone will influence thousands in there lifetime, i was really challenged by this thought, am I influencing in a positive way?, a negative way?, or am I influencing the way Christ would want me to?

Either way a very challenging thought to chew on.

Cadbury’s Ads

nealch85 — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 13:53:03 +0000

Cadbury has some very interesting ads on TV, i think this is an amazing way to get the concumer to remember their products… strangely enough.. this products doesnt really feature in the ad, yet it seems to work!
