My very good friend and co-pastor, James Richards, has recently set up a blog called Go Faster Pastor, at which he will be posting about some of those things he’s most passionate about – faith, family, fitness and fun. It’s well worth checking out:

Before you go and check it out, why not watch the video of his testimony here:
Oops! Like a pleb I forgot to post a Freedom Friday post yesterday, so here it is…on Saturday LOL!
It’s a video of Christine Caine (A21) delivering a message
to the students at the Passion 2012 conference charging them to stand up for the trafficked and enslaved. It’s about 26 mins long, so grab a cuppa and a muffin and give it your attention.

This is kind of a bomb-shell post in many ways!
It’s certainly a very humbling post to write as essentially it is a confession of weakness. I am a flawed man with a dangerously addictive personality and I am very aware right now of my failures and my frailties. However, I am also a man who is firmly gripped by and grateful for the matchless grace of God. Some of you are going to read this and think I’m a pleb. That I’m being stupid. Impetuous. Over-reacting. Others are just not going to get it at all. Still others, primarily those who know me, will be understanding, supportive and, I hope, prayerful.
So what’s this all about?
In short - I’m unplugging to plug back in!
I’ll start from the top…
Human trafficking is a global epidemic, but there is always a danger that we can fall into the trap of thinking that it’s not a local problem. Sadly, this is far from the case! Wales, like every other developed nation, has a trafficking problem to face up to. It’s always hard to get accurate information about the true scale of the issue here in Wales, but there are, by God’s grace, practitioners and and resources available that do a great job in sharing stats and stories from the ground.
One such resource is this fantastic website: http://humantraffickinginwales.co.uk
It’s well worth taking some time to browse around, especially the case studies section.
