Later today I fly to Glasgow and then tomorrow onto Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis off the coast of Scotland.
I'm leading an Ignite weekend for a group of churches in Stornoway and I'm very excited, if not a little daunted at the prospect. Stornoway was the scene for the first stirrings of the Hebridean Revival of 1948-52. As a Christian living and ministering in Wales, often called the Land of Revival, I'm aware of the cry of those who so desperately want to experience God move in their land once again.
God's words
- 1Chr. 16:31Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let them say among the nations, “The LORD reigns!”
