		<title>Quest for God Part 6.  No turning back</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Introduction
The Lord had brought us to the point of ending the Ministry, but He had not given us any clues to our future, so we stayed with the farm, supporting ourselves, and awaiting further guidance.
But a time of crisis came, and, still with no clear word from the Lord, we began to try to sell [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quest for God Part 5.  Expansion and decline</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Introduction
By this stage, some eight years after the beginnings of our little church, our activities were looking too much like those of every other established congregation. Greg and I, the &#8216;ministers&#8217;, were hoping for some extension of ministry, both to keep ourselves &#8216;alive&#8217; and to &#8216;wake-up&#8217; the weary congregation.

		<title>Quest for God Part 4.  A Church of my own</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Introduction
Again a thwarted outcast! But by this time I had grown beyond my earlier anxious attempts to find yet another church where maybe I would be welcome. I was just grateful to the Lord for all the ways he had led me and protected me, picked me up when I had stumbled, and taught me [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quest for God Part 3.  Challenges of the Charismatic</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Introduction

&#8216;Gifts of healings&#8217; next became my absorbing interest, and the Lord led me to a church where I was permitted to run a mid-week Service of Healing &#8211; a most wonderful challenge to my faith.
Then, within a couple of years the Charismatic renewal broke forth in some of the main-line churches, and, for a time, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quest for God   Part 2.  Problems with Churchianity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Introduction 
How do you get to know God and develop a relationship with Him? He showed me how! &#8220;Come to the Cross,&#8221; He said, and as I look back on the spiritual battles fought to really arrive at that place, I am reminded of the wisdom of the writer of Hebrews, who wrote of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quest for God   Part 1.  Growing up in the Church</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Introduction
As a pre-schooler I believed totally in Father Christmas; and from the time of my Christening I believed totally in God. But while Father Christmas was only relevant for about six weeks of each year, God was always relevant: He had put His mark on me at my christening, I was a lamb in His [...]]]></description>
