Church this week was one of those awesome God moments where I caught a fresh glimpse of what the Kingdom looks like as it's worked out among us.

As you know my husband Alan and I pastor the Causeway Coast Vineyard here on the North coast of Ireland. It's such a privilege! I love living my faith out with a community of people around me who challenge and encourage me. We are real people trying to figure out a real faith in the face of the hard stuff of life – just like you ☺

On Sunday, Alan was talking about money. He was reminding us that when we have something, the idea is that we share it with others that don't have enough. He reminded us that WE are often the answer to someone else's prayer.

At the end of the service he invited anyone up to the front who was in serious debt.

No one moved.

After a few moments, he made the invitation ag ... Read More »

Just say ’no’

I get asked all the time about this – how do you balance being a Mum, a pastor’s wife, a songwriter, and a worship leader both at home and away.  I smile, and then think for a moment about all the parts of my life that are full and at times a little crazy.  The truth is that thanks to a very sensible husband, I’ve learned to say no to a lot of what I’m asked to do.  What we need in life is a ’balance buddy’ – someone who loves us and understands what we are called to do, yet won’t shy away from telling us to stop and reassess where we are at periodically.  I wouldn’t even know where to begin without the wisdom of my husband.

These are the questions we always ask when we’re approached to take something on – is this a good thing to do right now for our family first; next does it work for our church; and thirdly do we sense this is something that’s just part of what w ... Read More »

Its All Worship Worth Dying For

I'm at a wonderful conference just now - Break Forth Canada in Edmonton, AB.

It's so exciting to be here - I love this side of what I do too!!!

I'm here to do a little teaching, and to lead some worship - along with some fantastic others - people like Paul Baloche, Robin Mark, MercyMe, Third Day, and many more!!!

If you live in the area and you would love to spend some time connecting with God along with several thousand others - please come along - it's at the Shaw conference centre in Edmonton. I think you'll love it!

Conferences can be the most wonderful way to 'refuel' and 'refocus' - there's something that happens when we get together as church, and as the wider church - that does our hearts good - helping us to remember just how huge God is, and how incredible He is!

Then of course, there is the wonder of going home again at the end ... Read More »

Last week was a powerful time at the Generation Church youth conference. We were there with Pastors Judah and Chelsea Smith along with my brother Joel, Chris Caine from Hillsong Church, and Pastor Benny Perez. The last night of the conference was absolut ... Read More »
